Gentle Healing Journal Lesson 91 2-3-19

Lesson 91
Miracles are seen in light.

I’m starting this study by looking closely at the main points in this lesson.

• miracles and vision necessarily go together
• the miracle is always there
• you will see them in the light; you will not see them in the dark
• light is crucial so that miracles will be seen
• if I deny the light that is there, its presence will be unknown to me and the idea of light will be meaningless. I believe what the eyes show me and so reject what is really there
• I am not alone in gaining vision, I have strong support
•  we will devote ourselves to the attempt to let you feel this strength in you
• miracles your sense of weakness hides will leap into awareness as you feel the strength in you.
• instruct yourself that you are not a body, faith goes to what you want
• Your will remains your teacher, and your will has all the strength to do what it desires
• Miracles are seen in light.
The body’s eyes do not perceive the light.
But I am not a body. What am I?
• What you think you are is a belief to be undone
• The truth of what you are calls on the strength in you to bring to your awareness what the mistake conceals.
• you need to feel something to put your faith in, as you lift it from the body.
• I am not weak, but strong.
I am not helpless, but all powerful.
I am not limited, but unlimited.
I am not doubtful, but certain.
I am not an illusion, but a reality.
I cannot see in darkness, but in light.
• your efforts, however meager, are fully supported by the strength of God and all His Thoughts. It is from Them that your strength will come.
• Their strength is yours. Their strength becomes your eyes, that you may see.

Miracles and light go together. Miracles are always there but because I am not always aware of the light, I am not always aware of the miracle. What gets in the way of the light? My denial of the light blocks it from my awareness and thus keeps me from the miracle. When I deny the light, I believe what my eyes show me instead. This encompasses what my ears tell me and what my body senses. When I deny the light, I will believe I am the body that reports this information to me.

How do I regain the light I have denied? Alone this would not be possible, but I am not alone. I am fully supported by God and all His Thoughts. My part is to increase my willingness through practice. I do this in meditation as I become open and receptive to Their help in remembering what I am. My will is my teacher and my will has all the strength to do what it desires. My will along with the support of God and all His Thoughts will succeed, cannot but succeed.

And here is how my Helpers worked through me this morning. I took this lesson apart sentence by sentence to squeeze all the juice I could from it. I read Regina’s tips carefully for the same reason. This morning I had three people to speak to and in each case, I had the opportunity to include portions of what I learned in this lesson and so the discussion further reinforced it. Thank you, Holy Spirit.

Regina’s Tips
Regina says:
What is the miracle?
Today’s workbook lesson says, “The miracle is always there.” The miracle in this context is what you are.

What is light?
Light is awareness.

“Miracles are seen in light” means: Your truth is known in awareness.

Today’s workbook lesson also says, “To you, then, light is crucial. While
you remain in darkness, the miracle remains unseen.”

The ego thought system is darkness. While we remain focused on the ego thought system, we are not aware of truth. We are not aware of what we are.

I love how Regina simplifies ideas, pulling out what is most important to me.

Regina also says:
When we combine intention with action (spiritual practice), we call out to our true Self with a power that the mind cannot fathom, and the true Self answers. This answer to our call is certain. We simply need to put out the call.

Do your part to the best of your little ability, and the true Self will do its part, and its ability is way beyond yours. Prepare to be amazed.

Self Visualization Plan

This is Regina’s:
This is the visualization plan that I have come up with for me now. It supports my spiritual aspiration.

Relaxed in Self-certainty, I know where to place attention in every moment including how to think, how to perceive and how to spend my time. I easily focus attention without distraction. I use the mind effectively when it is useful. It rests silently when not in use. I abide in Self-realization, even as the body is engaged in activity. I experience truth as it is, without a second. I am the direct experience of truth.

My Thoughts
Could I just adopt her plan? ~smile~ Well, ultimately, yes, but maybe I should start where I am and develop a plan to get where Regina is now.

I will start by asking HS to be in charge of my plan, to guide me to the perfect elements for me right now.

I know I am good at vigilance but I see no reason to abandon that. I already spend the majority of my time directly involved in spiritual activity of some sort and all of my time with a spiritual purpose. That time seems well spent and helpful so I will continue that as well. I resolve to spend more time in meditation and to change my script around meditation from a focus on my past experience with it, to the experience I intend to have going forward. I intend to give more attention to root cause when I notice dark thoughts that I am still tempted to believe, taking it all the way back to the TMI as I forgive them. I am guided to find my gratitude for all things, all people, all happenings and make that a deliberate focus.

This is what I have so far.
