The Practice of Healing and Transformation

Rev. Colleen McNally

I woke up this morning. It was early and I realized that I was wide awake. As I am in the process of doing my Miracles Practitioner practice, I am having this experience of words resonating in me. I am finding that I will take one passage from A Course in Miracles or from Pathways of Light Course 921 and immerse in it before sleeping.

Last night I was working on two sections: 1) “Miracles Practitioners Know How to Overlook the Meaningless” and 2) “Miracles Practitioners Practice Accepting God’s Final Judgment.” I immerse and then I sleep.

As I awaken I find that certain words or passages begin coming to me as if they are speaking to me, as if I have connected or am resonating with the words in some way. I woke up comforted with the words, “All that God would have me do, I can do.” “And now sit down in true humility, and realize that all God would have you do you can do.” (M-14.5:10)

I centered myself in the thought all that God would have me do, I can do. In this recognition, a calm came over me and I was thinking, “Yes, I can do it.” I am capable of whatever this day calls for in me and whatever God calls me forth to do today. My usual ego-centered doubts and fears seemed far away and I felt so grateful in beginning this day. What beautiful words and it is even more profound to feel those words seep into my being. As I was reflecting, I found myself becoming quiet. “Learn to be quiet, for His Voice is heard in stillness. And His Judgment comes to all who stand aside in quiet listening and wait for Him.” (M-15.2:12-13)

And as I sat in this process, I needed to return to the answer to, What is God’s final judgment? And I sat with the answer for awhile. “Holy are you, eternal, free and whole, at peace forever in the Heart of God.” (M-15.1:11) Knowing that I can do all that God would have me do,, I will practice listening to Holy Spirit today. I will practice being quiet and breathing into God’s Final Judgment. In all of this, I feel healing and transformation.

I am gentle. I am free.
A peace comes over me.
Love at rest, yet it flows
and manifests the essence
of a Guiding Light,
leading me to shine and be,
ever so silently.
