September-December, 2025
“In quiet I receive God’s Word today” is the title of Workbook Lesson 125, and as I was reading over that lesson for the day, the “Word” came quickly. INDIVISIBLE, the Voice said.
For the last four months, I’ve become a permanent care giver for my ailing mother, which has been a very challenging time for both her and I. Mom is recuperating from a recent hospital stay and is having difficulty walking, standing and doing daily tasks. She also suffers from extreme anxiety and depression. While I can do things for her to make her physical life easier, at the same time, this very giving person cannot deal with someone giving and doing for her and this upsets her greatly, and makes her feel less and less like a useful human which greatly taxes her mental state.
Mom has crying episodes every day, often from fears and anxieties of her own making which I cannot make go away. She looks through the world through a darkened lens, always focusing on the negative, and she has no concept of God to draw upon, nor does she want to hear about any such thing.
She is not interested in learning about meditation or going within and she is quick to negate the efficacy of any solutions presented to any problems she may have. It is easy to fall prey to my own depression as I am a witness to hers.
I call upon the Holy Spirit for help for my own mental state, and again I hear the word INDIVISIBLE, and I am soothed. I am reminded (re-Minded) of the Truth of Oneness.
My true reality is Spirit, and I am not separated from God or Holy Spirit or even my mother. We are not these bodies that we seem to inhabit, they are only temporary vehicles for us to use in this experience. We may have asked for separation, and we may be experiencing separation, but the Truth is we will always be forever One. We are the Love of God in expression, and I sink into that feeling of Love and let it fill me and become me. We are INDIVISIBLE. I breathe in LOVE and I feel it extend out into the universe. I send it out to my mom, the only thing I can think of to do to calm her mind when everything else fails.
“INDIVISIBLE”— the word flashes across my mind again and I am reminded of the Pledge of Allegiance, and my mind quickly re-writes it, changing it to the “The Pledge to God.”
The Pledge to God
I pledge I love you to the God
That created me exactly as He is.
And to the Holy Spirit—the Voice for God,
All Sons—One with God, INDIVISIBLE,
In Unity and Oneness and Love.
I take this time to thank God for the miracles he sends me that remind me of the Oneness that already exists despite what my eyes may be witnessing. I may not be able to soothe my mother’s despair, but I do not have to join in her suffering. I can choose to remember the One Truth at any time, and that Truth reminds me that we are INDIVISIBLE! Yea!
