A Basket of Onions

by Rev. Myron Jones, O.M.C.

You may have heard people talk about peeling the onion when referring to letting go of stubborn beliefs. I have always found this to be a very apt description of my process. I will notice a useless ego thought and ask the Holy Spirit to remove it from my mind. Depending on how attached I am to that thought, it will be gone, or it will seem to be gone.

Sometimes I will be surprised to see that it has turned up again. That is when I realize I had peeled away a layer of that belief, but I had been unwilling to let the entire belief go. Thus, it shows up again in the same form, or some other form, and I have the opportunity to peel another layer from that particular onion.

I used to have a whole basket of these onions, these false ego beliefs. Now the basket is not so full as it used to be, because I have been vigilant for signs that I have another thought to bring to the Holy Spirit.

The Practice of Listening

by Rev. Larry Glenz, O.M.C.

This lifelong New York boy has been living in Florida for the winter. Although I am an experienced traveler, this has been my longest period away from home on Long Island since my days as a young college student. Getting away, even for a little while, has always offered me the chance to reflect back on my everyday life. Living alone in my Florida condo this winter has again provided such an opportunity.

In this period of relative solitude, I have spent many hours alone with the Course – reading, writing, meditating and connecting to Holy Spirit. Getting quiet and listening to Spirit is an essential part of practicing ACIM, whether or not one lives a busy life. I believe that spending time alone with the intention of making this connection to Him provides the foundation for an ability to have the Voice for God guide you throughout the day.

The Peace of Heaven

by Rev. Maura Williams, O.M.C.

The world is chaos
and I can know
the peace of Heaven now.

There is nothing in me
not leaping for joy at this idea.

There is nothing in me
blocking this flow of Love.

Forgiveness Lessons with the Computer

by Rev. Linda Wisniewski, O.M.C.

Happy New Year. Your computer is not working. Are you kidding me? I can’t survive without my computer. What will happen with the ministry? I depend on the computer for everything. How will I connect? How will those that are trying to contact me know that I’m here if I don’t answer them? Maybe they will think I don’t care. Oh, this is a disaster. I’m finished. Everything is ruined.

These are the ego thoughts that came rushing in when the server on the computer broke and I couldn’t get it fixed for four and a half days. Oh my. The ego is an insane thought system and I’m glad you didn’t see it in action when I found out it wouldn’t get fixed for four days. “What do you mean, the people don’t work on the weekends. Can’t you see this is an emergency?” screamed the ego.

Not only is the ego thought system loud, but it projects its loud mouth onto others. My poor husband thought I was ranting and raving at him as I was hurling my thoughts into the atmosphere.

Then of course the guilt came up. How could I be so mean to the one I love? What kind of Course student am I? I’m such a hypocrite. Again, the ego thought system will use anything to make us feel guilty, wronged and unworthy.

Fearless Love

by Rev. Michael Graves, O.M.C.

Having lived more than a few years of life now, I have come to know that most people in the world are genuinely kind and loving at heart. But I have also noticed that there seems to be something that stops some of us from fearlessly expressing love and kindness to others we meet in life. Especially if they are considered to be strangers or someone we don’t “know.”

Students of A Course in Miracles are more aware than most that there is no such thing as a stranger, only a brother, and that every encounter is a Holy encounter. Yet, many of us still struggle to be more open and fearless with others.

I Quit

by Rev. Carly D. Glasmyre, O.M.C.

I walked into my manager’s office, tension running through my body. I sat down, looked into her eyes, told her I was giving my two weeks, and promptly burst into tears.

I was not happy at my current job, and I’d gotten a new one that paid more and was closer to my home. It was a victory, really. It just didn’t feel that way.

Ever since I was young, I believed that my job should make me happy. I grew up with people telling me to “follow my passion.” I read books that said doing what you love to do is the meaning of life. And, conversely, I watched adults in my life suffer and curse their jobs as the source of their unhappiness.

Changes and Distractions

by Rev. Maura Williams, O.M.C.

This world we live in is full of changes and distractions. I can be peacefully sitting in my home and the phone could ring and a voice inform me of some bad news I was not prepared to hear. My world can go from very peaceful to the living hell of trying to comprehend the impossible.

A break up, a divorce, a diagnosis, a death, an accident, it doesn’t matter, they’re all the same. This kind of event intrudes into our somehow seemingly ordered lives and smashes us. It scatters each and every part of how we knew ourselves just moments ago.

How do we bring ourselves from the state of disbelief, disappointment, delusion and complete confusion? It all starts with remembering.
