Peace Is Magic!

by Rev. Vicki Evans, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

I realized the power of magic in stepping back and choosing peace instead of trying to prove myself, be defensive, or be right. After an opportunity for a life lesson of trying to convince an employee at a garden park that my tickets included the gift bag (as stated on the online order) I realized that the time and energy, tension and stress that was part of the deal in proving myself as right was not worth the end result. I learned that going forward I will take that step back and choose peace.

I started this journey on Easter Sunday and made it my focus to choose peace all day over the next 24 hours! What a transformation that life held for me when I released ego and started this process. Also, no pressure as I decided to try this experiment for 24 hours and if it didn’t work for me I could try ego again! I started the day with giving myself permission to put worries on the shelf along without trying to guess how things would
turn out during the day’s events.

I went with the flow of the moment and when we went out to a restaurant on Easter, I was open to the experience with no ego notions of how this event should evolve for me. That meant no ego about which restaurant table we get (it doesn’t have to be by a window) and also giving grace and patience regarding the food items and being grateful for the service.

Dairy Aisle Miracle

by Rev. Sofia Pizano, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

One never knows when an opportunity to experience a miracle might arise. Many years ago when I first began studying A Course in Miracles, I woke up one day and, as usual, picked up my ACIM Workbook. The lesson for that day was Lesson 34. (W-pI.34) “I can see peace instead of this.”

As usual, I wanted to experience the fullness of this lesson so I looked it up in Kenneth Wapnick’s book, called, “Journey through the Workbook,” which basically states that I can choose to “see” peace instead of what I am seeing (in my mind) at the moment. I continued on with my day, making sure to pay extra attention to anything that made me feel uncomfortable since that usually is a signal for me to pause and question what is happening in my mind.

I kept that lesson in mind throughout the rest of the day, which included a late stop at the grocery store. As I got everything on my shopping list, I remembered I also needed some cheese. As I made my way towards the dairy aisle, I began looking through the refrigerated section to find what I was looking for. I stood about one foot away from the section while scanning the shelf, when a lady managed to pass right in front of me and almost knocked me over! There was no “excuse me” or “pardon me.” She just walked right on through.

Do you or a loved one have a chronic or critical illness and want support?

You are not alone. God’s Will is that we be happy.

With Guidance, there may be another way to see your situation to find hope and relief.

When you ask for individual support, one of the members of the support group, guided by the principles of A Course in Miracles, will respond and encourage you to go within and seek the support of your Inner Teacher, the Voice for God, Who will gently guide your healing process.

ACIM for Humanity

by Cheryl Minor, Student of A Course in Miracles

It was the sudden impact of COVID-19 in 2020 that shut the stores and roadways down in Orlando Florida, where I was living at the time. Since it was suggested that everyone stay inside their homes, I had ample time to go deeper into my studies of A Course in Miracles.

Within a few days it was apparent, to many on the social media platform Instagram, that we were in dangerous territory, and our lives were being held hostage by an invisible disease.

Many New Thought and Spiritual Guide Teachers were providing solace through prayers and free eBooks. But it was Marianne Williamson, spiritual leader and author of the New York Times number one bestseller “A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles” gift that caught my attention. In her Instagram video she affectionately offered, as a free download, the complete audio recordings of ACIM Workbook for Students. I immediately downloaded the series to iTunes.

There Are No Coincidences

by Rev. Christine Anderson, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

In the course of needing physical therapy for my left hand, the spiritual sister who came to help me with physical therapy also was sent by Spirit to me for us to share the Course together.

She shared with me that her brother had a challenge in the world of substance abuse. She was very concerned about him and wanted to help him.

Suddenly I felt such happiness because I had something very wonderful to share with her.  I read her paragraph 11 on page 122 of the Text:

“Come therefore unto me, and learn of the truth in you. The mind we share is shared by all our brothers, and as we see them truly they will be healed. Let your mind shine with mine upon their minds, and by our gratitude to them make them aware of the light in them. This light will shine back upon you and on the whole Sonship, because this is your proper gift to God. He will accept it and give it to the Sonship, because it is acceptable to Him and therefore to His Sons. This is true communion with the Holy Spirit, Who sees the altar of God in everyone, and by bringing it to your appreciation, He calls upon you to love God and His creation. You can appreciate the Sonship only as one. This is part of the law of creation, and therefore governs all thought.”

Wax On, Wax Off

by Yoko Cotton, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

Born and raised an Okinawan, I have a biased opinion about the Karate Kid movies — I love it! After all, Okinawa gave birth to the original karate. So, of course, it’s only right then that the character for young Daniel’s teacher, Mr. Miyagi, be based on an Okinawan too.

In the movie, Daniel pleaded for Mr. Miyagi to teach him karate. Daniel wanted to stand up for himself against a group of bullies. Mr. Miyagi reluctantly agrees and quickly puts Daniel to work on various chores like waxing cars: “Wax-on, wax off.” Of course, young Daniel became frustrated by what he initially felt was nonsense. At one point, he even questions Mr. Miyagi’s understanding of real karate until finally, the purpose of his chores became evident. Daniel had internalized his technique through his work, making it almost instinctual.
