My Healing Experiences with The Book ON… And Jesus Answers

by Rev. Sharyn Zenz

imageOne morning as I sat reading from The Book ON, I felt so comforted by Jesus. The chapter I had just read was one where Jesus was asking us again to please not put him apart from us. He asked us to see him as one with ourselves. He said, “ I am your sister/brother, and am part of you.” It reminded me of a place in A Course in Miracles where Jesus says, “If you only knew Who walked beside you, fear would be impossible.”

As I sat and closed my eyes, just thinking of what I had just read, the most amazing scene came to my mind.

I saw a white pedestal about three or four feet tall with Roman type scrolls on the top of it. It was like some of the plant stands you see at the nurseries, except this one had a wider base and the top of it was a little wider. And there was Jesus standing on top of that pedestal!

He said, “Sharyn, please knock me down from this pedestal!” I thought to myself, “Oh my, I could never knock down Jesus.” Then He said, “I know dear, but please just come and give me your hand and help me off this pedestal that you have had me on for so many years!”
 
So I walked over and took his hand and helped him step down off the pedestal. He said to me, “ You know as long as you have had me on that pedestal, you could never realize your oneness with me! You saw me over there and higher than you. And when you see me like that, it is impossible to see me as an equal with yourself.”
 
Then I really did realize that he was right! I remembered when I was a little girl I used to sing, “Jesus Loves Me” and “What a Friend We Have in Jesus” all the time. I really did think he was so much better than and higher than me.

Wow, what insight was just revealed to me in this little rest after reading that chapter! To continue with the vision, Jesus stood in front of me and wrapped his arms around me. I felt so warm and so comforted. He said to me, “Now feel my Light blend with your Light and feel us become One.”

As I stood there I really felt a blending and I felt his presence in me. Since that happened, I feel his love and joy within me everyday. I know he walks with me wherever I go. I know I can never be alone. I truly feel one with him and I know that I have a best friend that lives within me and will help me make any decisions if I just ask him. I now feel like he fills every cell of my being. What a great feeling!

That story is just one of the insights that has come to me from reading The Book ON. This book has truly been a companion of mine and I take it wherever I go.

I sometimes randomly just pick it up and ask to turn to the page that is meant for me at that moment. I always receive my answer and it always turns out to be the perfect page! I will be talking to someone or somebody will call me for counseling and I automatically think of a chapter in that book that would help them.

Thank you Jesus for coming through Joel Wright and thank you John Hutkin for seeing that need to follow through by working with Joel and for having this book published. The world is truly blessed with this new inspiring book!
