Awakening Through My Special Relationships — Part 4: Mom

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

This article is the fourth in a series of Holy Spirit’s use of my special relationships for the purpose of healing. It pertains to the year preceding the divorce from my second husband. 

New Year’s Day, 2011, my husband was as fully aware as I of the insanity of our marriage and verbalized his distress. For the next several weeks he broached the subject of counseling and every time he did, my blood literally ran cold. I knew what my truth was but I couldn’t speak it.  I often tried to, for I could barely contain my unhappiness, but each time I would be forced to stop upon hearing the words, “not yet.” I knew I was to be patient and wait for Holy Spirit’s guidance and timing.

My Story

by Maura Williams

Something happened to me in my 50’s. I’d been married to the same wonderful man for a very long time. We’d raised two girls, and by all appearances had a very nice life. There was only one problem. I was not happy. I bounced between content and miserable but I never felt truly happy. I couldn’t put my finger on exactly what it was that was bothering me. It seemed like my unhappiness was caused by so many different things. I tried to laugh it off as a mid-life crisis until someone told me I was well past middle age. Somehow that didn’t seem funny to me.

Finally I decided to do something different. I went back to school part time and I started reading A Course in Miracles. This was my second attempt at reading it. Someone suggested I find a study group this time, so I looked online and found a group that met at our public library. Rev. John Vise was the facilitator. I shot him a quick email with my contact information and he got right back to me and invited me to attend. I had no idea my life was about to change.

Living in the World While Waking Up

by Rev. Tarra Bennett, O.M.C.

My husband and I were returning from our Christmas vacation by car, which is not exactly the time of year for exploring as the back roads are sometimes blocked by snow. However the scenery can be very beautiful along the ocean towns where we live, even in wintertime, so we decided to treat ourselves as we had the entire day.

The first three towns we visited had easy access and the drive through each town was relaxing and scenic.

However, the fourth town that we decided to check out was on a dirt road that extended twenty-five kilometers off the main highway. My husband, Steve, was having second thoughts due to the distance and the road. However, he decided to go along with me since I really wanted to explore. Knowing that it was a dirt road, it would be more remote and more inviting for me.

Being Drawn In

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

Why have I been so strongly drawn to the teachings of A Course in Miracles? I had no previous strong spiritual beliefs. Although I attended Sunday school and became confirmed at age 13 as a Presbyterian, I stopped attending church and praying shortly after.

When I was a kid, I prayed for certain outcomes to take place that didn’t happen. Looking back, the things I prayed for were insignificant. I lost faith, however, that God was listening or watching me. Later on, the dogma of organized religion turned me off, as did the long history of violence in the name of God.

The One About Lesson 2

by Rev. Stephan Mead, O.M.C.

“I have given everything I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place] all the meaning it has for me.” (W-pI.2)

It was Sunday, February 1st, about noon. I was up at our cabin on Whidbey Island preparing for my partner, Nancy, (who was in Seattle picking up my granddaughter,) and about a dozen friends, who were coming over to watch the Superbowl. I had the big screen TV on the pre game activities. Company was starting to arrive with enough food and treats to party through the evening, and Nancy made the 1:30 ferry. This game was going to be the most watched event in history! All was well! All was perfect!

Holy Spirit, Why Am I Doing This?

by Carly D. Glasmyre

As a Pathways of Light ministerial candidate, I am currently working on Course 112: Knowing Your True Purpose with Rev. Maria Felipe. In this course, one of the assignments is to ask Holy Spirit a question, and write down the answer received. When I got to this assignment, I listened within for what I needed to ask and was surprised when this came up: Why am I doing this? Why am I taking these Pathways of Light courses? Why am I doing A Course in Miracles? What is my true focus? What is the practice I should commit to?

Don’t Sweat Small Stuff

by Rev. Lorraine Merritt, O.M.C.

Don’t sweat small stuff…

Don’t sweat small…

Don’t sweat…

Don’t…

If I sit still and listen, the answer always comes. Even when it comes as if it were a tutorial.
