Learning to Forgive Promotes Healing for Us All

by Rev. Peggy Rivera, O.M.C.

Rev. Peggy RiveraRelationships are a very good place for opportunities for us to see where we need to heal our minds.

How often do we hear ourselves or our brothers complain about something someone else said or did to make us unhappy? It is our thoughts that get out of control and when we believe our unhappiness is caused by some outside force, we fall deeper and deeper into the perception we are alone and afraid and separate from our Source.

If we listen to the voice of the ego we have chosen fear and pain and sickness. These are blocking us from the healing thoughts of our true nature.

I imagine having those little beings on my shoulder the devil (ego) on one side and an angel (Holy Spirit) on the other. And we have to choose which voice to listen to. In A Course in Miracles page 451 in the Manual for Teachers it says, “I can obscure my holy sight, if I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the holy sights Christ looks upon unless it is His vision that I use. Perception is a mirror not a fact.”

We always have the choice that is our freedom. Our call is to hear the Voice and share it. To share makes it increase.

We use the body for communication. We listen to the Voice for God and He guides us gently back to our wholeness. It takes our focusing on hearing only that Voice so that we can heal. We heal through each other. We teach what we learn and we learn what we teach. If we are listening to the Holy Spirit’s guidance, we expand the Love and joy that promotes healing for all of us. So, when someone is really down in the depths of despair, we can see what they have forgotten the truth. That is all we really need to do. We do not judge, we support, we offer our unconditional love, kindness and prayer.

I am aware in my own mind that as I go to Holy Spirit whenever I have symptoms, I receive flashes of insight in my mind. For me it is a process that takes time. I think sometimes healing takes time. Healing is not something we rush through. We all will heal, we focus on forgiveness of ourselves and each other. I think that’s what I am being made aware of. When I experience the flashes of images from my past, I am getting the opportunity to see differently.

Forgiving the dream is essential for all healing. I think it feels really wonderful to know that God has already forgiven us. We just have to accept forgiveness for ourselves. And to teach that to others so it can expand to more and more people everywhere. That way the whole is healed.
