Gentle Healing Journal Lesson 76. 1-11-19

LESSON 76
I am under no laws but God’s.

“There are no laws except the laws of God. This needs repeating, over and over, until you realize it applies to everything that you have made in opposition to God’s Will. Your magic has no meaning. What it is meant to save does not exist. Only what it is meant to hide will save you.”

We have made many laws to take the place of God’s laws. In our desire to separate from God, we imagined we separated ourselves from His laws that protect us. Our abandonment of our perfect safety left us in fear and in our fear and arrogance we made magical laws that we intended to take the place of God’s laws.

Like everything else in the world our laws do an imperfect job, and more importantly, they hide the truth from us. I suppose we don’t want to see the truth because we think we would be admitting failure. Really, I think we don’t want the only solution to our error because we still want our stories. We still want to try one more time to get it right.

As I read this lesson, I had two opposing reactions. First, I felt a surge of hope. I really do see how nothing I do saves me from this illusion of being a body in a world that seems to be getting worse all the time. Or perhaps it is that I have opened my eyes to new possibilities, to love and peace and joy as being real and possible. Now when I see anger and fear and guilt, it is painful to me. I want to wake up from this dream world. I do want salvation.

The opposing reaction is fear. I am afraid to give up all my magical solutions. What if I am not ready for this? What if all I do is cause myself more suffering? What if without my magic healing potions I cause the death of this body? I am not so in love with this body and this story that I would be devastated at ending it, but without true healing, I would just plunge right back into another story.

Here is what I am being asked to do. I am being asked to be still and open my mind to Him. I will be enlightened to the truth and to God’s love and care for me, about the endless joy He offers me. I think that this is how it must be done. Changing my behavior while still keeping the belief in magic and the fear of loss will not bring me to the truth.

As I open my mind to His Voice I will learn the truth. Listening to His Word is not frightening and is certain to bring salvation. I think that meditating with the intention of letting the laws of God permeate my mind is the same as finding the light. I am going to continue my meditation practice and now I will add to it as I remember that I am under no laws but God’s.

Regina’s Tips for this lesson
“Salvation is not divine intervention to receive the cures and fixes we think we need in order to be happy. Salvation is seeing beyond the belief that I am a body-mind. Salvation is realizing what I am, something real that cannot be threatened.”

My Thoughts
As Regina points out sometimes we do get what we need sometimes, but that only provides temporary relief. What we want to do with this lesson is to let ourselves be open to knowing who we are and what are God’s laws. This is our salvation. When we know this we will know that we are perfectly safe.
