WB Lesson 165 Thoughts

These thoughts came to me after reading Lesson 165, “Let not my mind deny the Thought of God.”

The illusory world was made in the attempt to deny God and His Thought.  It never happened, the attempt failed; a mad idea was corrected the instant it was thought.
(There is no guilt, I am free. There is no guilt, I am free. There is no guilt, I am free. I remain as Love created me.)

Spirit: God creates only like Himself. God is whole, therefore you were created whole. This was not changed by any dream. You are whole, complete, with no part missing. You can feel this wholeness if you so choose. As part of Love, you are wholly loving and wholly lovable. Nothing has occurred that would change this fact.  No matter what you imagine in your dream, you are Home now because you never left. Only truth is true and this you cannot change. Keep seeking the truth and you will have it.

If you feel fear, you have mistaken your self for a body. Quickly give this thought to Holy Spirit, for He gladly takes all that you offer Him. He will take everything that would hurt you and remove every thought of guilt that you invested in. In its place you will have the light of knowledge and the peace of Christ’s Vision. The veil of fear and guilt will be lifted revealing your true thoughts that you share with God. Love surrounds you, protects you and sustains you. In this you cannot fail to reach the truth.
~~~~~~~
My mind holds only what I think with God.
In my holy mind is the perfect light waiting to radiate outward; extending to all, forgetting no one.

WB lesson 159 Cliffsnotes

I give the miracles I have received.

To give is how you recognize you have received. It is the proof that what you have is yours.

All miracles are given you. Receive them now by opening the storehouse of your mind where they are laid, and giving them away.
Christ’s vision is a miracle. Christ’s vision is a miracle in which all miracles are born. Christ’s vision is their Source, remaining with each miracle you give, and yet remaining yours.

Christ’s vision is the holy ground in which the lilies of forgiveness set their roots. His lilies do not leave their home when they are carried into the world. They do not leave their Source, but carry its beneficence with them, .... Take from Christ’s storehouse, that its treasures may increase. Behold the store of miracles set out for you to give. Are you not worth the gift, when God appointed it be given you?

Judge not God’s Son, but follow in the way He established. His vision gives the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting holiness in God.

PS. In my holiness (innocence, peace, forgiveness) my safety lies. If I am whole, complete, spotless, (as Love created me) there is nothing that can harm me. I remain as God created me.

WB lesson 158 Cliffsnotes

Today I learn to give as I receive. ....Cliffsnotes

I have been given the knowledge that: you are mind, in Mind and purely mind, sinless forever, wholly unafraid, because you were created out of love. Nor have you left your Source, remaining as you were created. This knowledge you cannot lose.

Experience is revealed to him (the teacher) at its appointed time. But vision is his gift. Christ has a vision He can give to anyone who asks.

Christ’s vision has one law. It does not look upon a body, and mistake it for the Son whom God created. Christ’s vision beholds a light beyond the body; an idea beyond what can be touched, a purity undimmed by errors, pitiful mistakes, and fearful thoughts of guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation.

And this you give today: see no one as a body. Greet him as the Son of God he is, acknowledging that he is one with you in holiness.
Thus are his sins forgiven him, for Christ has vision that has the power to overlook them all. In His forgiveness they are gone. .... because a vision of the holiness that lies beyond them (mistakes/sin) comes to take their place.

We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ’s vision looks upon ourselves as well.

PS. If I am wholly unafraid (without fear) then I must be aware of Love’s Presence that is in me.

WB lesson 155 Cliffsnotes

I will step back and let Him lead the way.  ....Cliffsnotes

Those who come the world are seeking for a place where they can be illusions, and avoid their own reality. When they find their own reality is even here, then they step back and let it lead the way.

So they need a Teacher Who perceives their madness, but Who can still look beyond illusion to the simple truth in them.

Deprivation and defeat (desires for the impossible) steps back as truth comes forth in you, to lead your brothers away from ideas of death, and set them on the way to happiness. All roads lead to this one in the end.
At the journey’s end there is no distance between truth and you. Step back in faith and let truth lead the way. You know not where you go. But One Who knows goes with you. Let Him lead you with the rest.  We walk to God, We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now is one with Him, and leads us to where he has always been. (In our minds)

Forget not He has placed His Hand in yours. .....He cannot be deceived. His trust has made your pathway certain and your goal secure. You will not fail your brothers nor your Self.
“I will step back and let Him lead the way, for I would walk along the road to Him.”

I am willing to let go and let God.  ~~ I will decide nothing on my own.

Have No Past

Recently these thoughts were given to me from Spirit.

Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God.
If you are sinless (and you are as God created you) there is nothing about your true Self that needs forgiveness. Your real Self is forever pure, wholly perfect and complete in Love. You are the same as Love and this has never changed.

What if you had no past? No recording of what happened “when” or who did “what.” No list of rights and wrongs; no judgments of what was good or bad.
Imagine that you have no past and look on the world anew. For without a history you cannot compare situations, circumstances or encounter with what is now. Without a history based on misunderstandings and misperceptions, you have a clean slate, an open mind to accept the present moment simply as it is, without fault or guilt.

There is no lack here (within). You are safe. You are never alone. In truth this thought does not mean anything. It shows a fear based idea on which all errors in thinking rest.

Relinquish the idea that you left your Father! the tiny mad idea that you did not release has made the world you “see,” for a body that is not there. You asked your Father for an impossible, exclusive love, which could never be. Thinking that you were without God, or Love, you sought approval from images in the dream.

Anyone whom you have ever looked for approval or acceptance from only represented your Father. Your whole dream has been made to find acceptance, but it cannot be found in a dream of separateness. By following an insane thought system you will never find what you seek. The power of decision is your own, and your choice will make all things real or false to you. Be not fearful or intimidated by the images made by a false mind. They cannot harm you in truth. The Teacher of Love rescinds all the insane ideas of separation. Are you willing to let go of your sacred ideas? Are you willing to want only Love?
