These are two suggestions that Robert and Mary seem to repeat often and every time they do, my Inner Guide says something like, ‘there it is again… just listen.’
This suggestion, after decades of study and practice of ACIM, reading anything else related I could get my hands on, a nearly graduate degree in Buddhist Philosophy and the rest… surely I should be closer to enlightenment now than when I started, as all of these things create a deeper and deeper perspective and wow, some amazing teachers, etc.

For five minutes every hour, lesson 109 instructs us to rest in the peace and stillness of God. Staying vigilant to the hourly practice is a feat for many of us, but a question that comes to my mind is how do I continue that rest throughout the other 55 minutes of the hour? After five minutes of resting in the peace and stillness of God, then what? When those five minutes pass, I find myself going back to the business of the world.

A couple of months ago, the day after I returned from a fabulous Hawaiian vacation, I discovered a man whom I had trusted stole about $30k from me. I remember sitting at a coffee shop looking over some financial records thinking, “This cannot be happening to me.” And, “after all the help I have given this person, this is how he shows gratitude?” I thought I was going to vomit.

For many years I considered myself to be a spiritual seeker. But one of my favorite inspirational authors, Alan Cohen says, “To step onto any path is to leave our source.” One day, when I was meditating, the Wizard of Oz came to mind and I realized just how brilliantly it illustrates this point.

There’s a place in the mind called I Don’t Know. I arrived here by surprise today. There’s a big shade tree with a bench underneath. I’m resting here in peace. I don’t have any suitcases, plans for later on, anywhere I need to go, anybody to please. What seemed to happen yesterday, last year, last century have no life here.

It seems that I have spent my whole life in an effort to bring my body weight under control. I have used that particular class room to learn lots of good lessons. The Holy Spirit and I have made good use of this particular challenge. Here is an example of how this has worked for me. This is an excerpt from my book, “Hey, Holy Spirit, It’s Me Again.” This book is a journal of my study of the Workbook including the messages I receive from Spirit as I meditate on the lesson. This particular one is specifically about my confusion around the body and specifically, dieting.

Lately I have wondered why some people get sick and others seem to live their lives free of disease. I noticed that it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with how spiritual they are or how nice they are or how good they are. It just seems to have no rhyme or reason. When I think that in order to heal my afflictions I must pray, reflect and change my thoughts, I get a little upset and ask myself, “Why do I have to be good when there are people who are really bad and they don’t seem to have any problems?”

I am the Light that guides me
No more searching for anything more
I am the one I have been looking for
And that is the truth
of what it means to see

Part 1 — While all miracles are born from healing the ‘cause,’ which is our perception, they can extend to the level of ‘effect’ (form) as well. They can do so because both cause (mind) and effect (body and the world) remain together in our mind and cannot be separate. They can certainly appear to be separate, but only in our fear-based perception. Usually, though, we will not witness a miracle at the form level if we are still afraid of it.

In the last Miracles News, Reverend Maria Kingsley and I announced that POL will soon be starting a support group to support those with chronic and critical illness. In fact, there are already seven ministers who are part of this group and we meet once a month to strengthen our own understanding of Wellness through Mind Healing based on A Course in Miracles. We also support each other in our willingness to be of service under Holy Spirit’s guidance. If you are a Pathways of Light minister and feel called as you read this, please contact me at: .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

How busy
Do you keep yourself
So that Love and Truth
Find no space in you to Be?

I am grateful to A Course in Miracles, certainly. I am grateful that it taught me about the power of gratitude. It seems to me that gratitude comes so much more naturally to me than it used to. I most certainly give credit to the process of turning to Holy Spirit for guidance — a practice that has developed in me from participating in Pathways of Light courses, attending ACIM study groups, and spending time quietly with the intention of connecting with my Creator.

Workbook lesson 12 says, I am upset because I see a meaningless world. I see a world where a life ends — and then ends up in a vacuum cleaner bag (a spider). And then ends up in that bag forever, at the dump. A glorious life, forever in a vacuum cleaner bag, at the dump. This can’t be real. That kind of stuff can only happen in dreams.

I woke up early one November morning feeling very unwell. My head hurt, I was shaking and felt sick. I said nothing to my husband who brought me a cup of tea, as he has every day of our 20 year marriage, with just one exception when he was working abroad.
I lay there quite puzzled. I really shouldn’t be sick and really did not expect to be sick. Nevertheless, herewith I was struggling with it!
January-March, 2013
I am learning the lessons of not to be afraid of this journey through fear and not to judge the path or the point on the path, where I find myself or where I perceive another to be. For it is here I need to turn to Holy Spirit for help.
