A New Way to See

WB Review lessons

These are some thoughts that came to mind.

Trying to make my thoughts (of separation) true is a meaningless endeavor. I can never succeed. Thinking that I am alone, I make everything an enemy to me, worthy of my judgement and condemnation. If I can condemn then I think I can be condemned (attacked).

As long as I search in the dark, I will not find truth or peace. As long as I cling to my illusions I will not be happy. Trying to make the unreal real will never be accomplished. Truth is true. It cannot be altered, adjusted or changed. Truth is changeless, eternal, complete. Am I willing to accept the truth?

Dear Lord, please help me to feel my feelings and view my thoughts without judgment. Instead of allowing feelings to surface I have made judgments, rather then giving them to you. The only ‘reason’ for this dream is my belief that I turned away from my Creator. The purpose of this dream can be changed to the healing of God’s Son, or the mind that thought separation could be true.

(I have no neutral thoughts, I see no neutral things.)
My thoughts are either true or false. Only the thoughts I think with God or Love are true. Thoughts that teach I am a body are false. This is only a mistake not a sin. Am I willing to be wrong in my choice(s)? And allow my errors to be corrected?

(I am not alone in experiencing the effect of my seeing and my thoughts.)
Minds are joined. In truth there is only one Mind. I have denied the truth and made myself sick. Is the world of separation worth the cost of my sanity?  Sharing love is my correction and healing.

(I am determined to see.)
What has never happened can have no effects. I am willing to have my thoughts corrected, that I can recognize that unreal/impossible thoughts have no effect.

WB Lesson 47

God is the strength in which I trust.

What does this mean to me? ~~~ Since I do not know what anything is for, how can I discern what to trust? If there is a part of mind that believes the world is out to take things from me, how do I find trust? If I attempt to trust myself, I fail because the separated mind does not know every outcome to my choices.

The following ideas I find very comforting; reminding me of the truth.

W-41.3.—- Deep within you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate through you and out into the world.
W-47.5.—- 3 It is not by trusting yourself that you will gain confidence. 4 But the strength of God in you is successful in all things.
W-47.7.—- 4 There is a place in you where there is perfect peace. 5 There is a place in you where nothing is impossible. 6 There is a place in you where the strength of God abides.                                   
W-47.8.—- 3 Remember that peace is your right, because you are giving your trust to the strength of God.

WB Lesson 45

This lesson gave me an idea for a “reminder” came to me a few years ago.

I now recognize what God would have me do is possible.

I understand what God
would have me do
is what I want to do.

I now realize that I cannot fail
in doing what God
would have me do.

WB Lesson 41

God is my strength. Vision is His gift.

“You will see because it is the Will of God. It is His strength, not your own, that gives you power. And it is HIs gift, rather than your own, that offers vision to you.”

To see past the images of the dream comes with willingness. The willingness to see differently, to see the innocence and the truth of His Creation. God extended Himself, He is never without His extension which is His Son.

God is whole, complete, with no exception, therefore so are you. Your holiness (wholeness) blesses the world.  What has no division must be strong. The strength of God is within you because you are one with your Source.

WB Lesson 40

I am blessed as a Son of God.

What does this lesson mean to me?
~~God loves His Son without limit. God shares with or gives everything to His Son. His Son can have no cares or worries. God is everywhere, His Son is never without God’s Love. God’s Son is safe, secure, healed and whole.

The Oxford American dictionary defines “blessed” as endowed with divine favor and protection. God’s Son has divine favor and protection means to me that even his errant thoughts cannot have effect in reality. He can (and does) mistake his thoughts as real and forgets that he has made a dream of separation. And I have been given a key to wake from the dream. I have within my mind the Voice of Love to guide me, to shine the Light to dispel the darkness. This Guide will show me that only Love is real and there is nothing to fear, and that God is Love. And that I am Love and nothing else.

In practicing the lesson, I am allowing the truth to return to my awareness. I have the opportunity to give up the lessons that I taught myself, let the imagined effects be undone.

What Is Hell?

Before I began the lesson for the day (39) I was given this idea.

The body rejects itself. Does this not represent your attempt to reject your true Self?

In truth you can never be separate from your eternal Self, you remain as Love created you. Look not with fear on what you made, for your dreams are mistaken thoughts. They show you your errors and errors can be erased if you so choose. Not by you, but by the complete, perfect Companion Who accompanies you in every step and turn.

Yet as long as you value your separateness, you will hold your thoughts and not give them over to the One who can correct them. As long as you value specialness you will hold the dream tight, not letting your errors be undone. The ego thought is what holds tightly to what it made. This thought is NOT you. This tiny thought is no where, it is nothing. Allow yourself to slip into peace, into a stillness and calm within your mind. Therein is your Answer, there is the truth. By resting in peace, you remember all that you tried to forget; you give room for Love to be Itself. Rest in peace often, and know that your Companion is ever with you, in all your ways, and will give you all that you need.
