Undoing the Illusion of Needs

by Nouk Sanchez

image We all are conscious that we have needs, needs that perhaps are not yet fulfilled and ones that are. And we don’t want to lose those things that we have so far acquired do we?  Unconsciously we set up expectations and strategies that the ego uses to protect and defend them. Realizing this you can ask then, what are your perceived needs? Do they include increased income, a home, an experience, to be a parent, more love, family, status or approval? 

It’s not until we’ve arrived at a point of trust in the Holy Spirit that we can begin to see that there exists an illusion of needs and truly understand why this is so. Until then, we resist the idea that any perceived need (other than forgiveness and waking up) is not real.

Accepting God’s Plan

by Rev. Mary Ellen Freundl

image I shouldn’t be surprised when I catch myself making plans again. I seem to wax and wane in terms of allowing Spirit to show me what to do and planning on my own.

I can make plans in my mind all day and not even be aware of what I’m doing. I am surprised by this but I accept it. I’m surprised because when I can see clearly, I gladly give up my ideas and patiently know I will be told what to do. I feel so happy when I do this and I think I’ll never resort to planning on my own again but I seem to continue to take a detour into illusions.

Healing a Projection

Rev. Myron Jones

image  There is a young woman I do not like. I find it disturbing because usually I would say there is this particular thing about this person I do not like and from there I work with it until whatever it is in me has been forgiven. But I could only look with dislike on this person and be very uncomfortable.

I finally mentioned it to a couple of people hoping something would pop up. I know I am projecting. That I recognize something in her can only mean that I am familiar with it. Either I have done it before and failed to forgive it in myself or I do it now and am repulsed by my own behavior and so try to get rid of it by tossing it onto her.

I Need Results!

by Rev. Larry Glenz

image  Having recently finished my ordination courses and having been a student of ACIM for years, I know full well that the practice of asking Holy Spirit for guidance in every concern or problem that I have is the path for receiving miracles. That being acknowledged, when it comes to life’s greatest challenges, my strongest tendency is to believe that if I don’t fix the problem it won’t get fixed.  I need results.

As the parent of a 25 year old drug addict, I feel like I have been in a battle with a powerful, fiendish demon using only prayer and meditation as my weapons. I am taught that my safety lies in my defenselessness.

Heaven On Earth

by Rev. Colleen Mc Nally

image  There is an edge for me. It is an edge where I know that Heaven is real to me. And when I know that Heaven is real, all is well, everywhere. To me, this is like experiencing Heaven on earth. The memory keeps me returning. It is a spiritual practice and it feels like it is the essence of my ministry.

In writing my morning pages today, I came upon the quote, “Creativity is a spiritual practice. It is not something that can be perfected, finished and set aside.” (Julia Cameron, p. 182, The Artist’s Way) As I came upon this quote, I had just been writing and reflecting on how important it is for me to stay connected to my ministry on a daily basis.

The Beauty of the Easter Lily

by Rev. Sharyn Zenz

image  I recently had an Accessing Inner Wisdom Counseling from one of our newly ordained ministers. In the counseling what came up was the fact that I feel unworthy and not beautiful because of being overweight. The new focus that came from the counseling was that Holy Spirit told me to sit every morning and write about beauty. He said that as I do this daily, I will be reminded that when I see the beauty in others, I am really seeing it in myself, as we are One. So on Easter morning I sat and wrote. This is what came to me:
