Welcome Family of mighty companions. I invite you to rest awhile in this Weekly meditation for contemplation-True Faith

True faith is the loosing of interest in all that is finite and transitory. True faith is gaining interest in the infinite Divine nature of God. True Faith dissolves all appearances of separation. The first fruits of true faith bring ever lasting peace, a peace not of this world. This secret place of true faith rests with us, it is the memory of God. Home at last, the place we never really left. A Course in Miracles 6. The way to correct distortions is to withdraw your faith in them and invest it only in what is true. ²You cannot make untruth true. (ACIM, T-3.II.6:1-2) https://acim.org/acim/chapter-3/mirac...

One choice

Meditation for contemplation

Recorded on youtube

       https://youtu.be/scFD29EC1As      

The idea it is possible to serve two Masters is insanity. To be restored to sanity is to accept The One Reality of Truth. Love is all encompassing with no opposite. The ego can only attempt to tempt us into a false reality which is mere dreaming. 

When it appears we have lost our way it is only an appearance. 

God is and always is right where we are, 

right "here" right "now". Amen

2. The part that is listening to the Voice for God is calm, always at rest and wholly certain.

³The ego uses the body for attack, for pleasure and for pride. ⁴The insanity of this perception makes it a fearful one indeed. ⁵The Holy Spirit sees the body only as a means of communication, and because communicating is sharing it becomes communion. ⁶Perhaps you think that fear as well as love can be communicated; and therefore can be shared.⁷Yet this is not so real as it may appear. ⁸Those who communicate fear are promoting attack, and attack always breaks communication, making it impossible.

The Miracles of Reality

Meditation for contemplation

Recorded on youtube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNENaVGL0Bs


The Miracle of Reality is the release from all fear and dreams of separation. The Great Reality is the remembering of our One Source in God's Love which is eternally extending itself.

God IS

Love IS

And we cease to speak!



A Course in Miracles

⁴We say “God is,” and then we cease to speak, for in that knowledge words are meaningless. 

(ACIM, W-169.5:4)

https://acim.org/acim/lesson-169/by-grace-i-live-by-grace-i-am-released/en/s/575


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`


³The miracle sets reality where it belongs. ⁴Reality belongs only to spirit, and the miracle acknowledges only truth. ⁵It thus dispels illusions about yourself, and puts you in communion with yourself and God. ⁶The miracle joins in the Atonement by placing the mind in the service of the Holy Spirit. ⁷This establishes the proper function of the mind and corrects its errors, which are merely lacks of love. ⁸Your mind can be possessed by illusions, but spirit is eternally free. ⁹If a mind perceives without love, it perceives an empty shell and is unaware of the spirit within. ¹⁰But the Atonement restores spirit to its proper place. ¹¹The mind that serves spirit is invulnerable.

Join in Truth

Weekly meditation for contemplation-Join in Truth
Recorded on youtube-available-11/6/23
When we join in Truth we join with The Holy Spirit in one with another.
When we join in ego, we join in painful illusions. The path of awakeness is awareness.
We cannot serve two Masters.
Only one is real.
A Course in Miracles
Chapter 16
The Forgiveness of Illusions
I. True Empathy
1. To empathize does not mean to join in suffering, for that is what you must refuse to understand. ²That is the ego’s interpretation of empathy, and is always used to form a special relationship in which the suffering is shared. ³The capacity to empathize is very useful to the Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. ⁴His way is very different. ⁵He does not understand suffering, and would have you teach it is not understandable. ⁶When He relates through you, He does not relate through your ego to another ego. ⁷He does not join in pain, understanding that healing pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts to enter into it, and lighten it by sharing the delusion.

The quiet pause

Weekly meditation for contemplation

Recording on youtube

       https://youtu.be/pKyjJnUixe8      

The quiet pause is the sacred space of resting in non-judgmental awareness with God and being the watcher. 

The ego/false self/dis-ease is not us. It is that simple!


We can experience a take over when something seemingly appears to agitate us. There is a solution!

Be in the quiet pause and turn to The Divine Source that supplies all our needs-now.

Keep it simple!

Pause when agitated-"BE" still-listen for Divine guidance


A Course in Miracles

Lesson 106

Let me be still and listen to the truth.

1. If you will lay aside the ego’s voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts that give you nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an open mind, that has not told you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely certain in Its messages.

2. Listen, and hear your Father speak to you through His appointed Voice, which silences the thunder of the meaningless, and shows the way to peace to those who cannot see. ²Be still today and listen to the truth. ³Be not deceived by voices of the dead, which tell you they have found the source of life and offer it to you for your belief. ⁴Attend them not, but listen to the truth.

3. Be not afraid today to circumvent the voices of the world. ²Walk lightly past their meaningless persuasion. ³Hear them not. ⁴Be still today and listen to the truth. ⁵Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness within His Hand, held out to you in welcome and in love. ⁶Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer.⁷Hear one Voice today.

4. Today the promise of God’s Word is kept. ²Hear and be silent. ³He would speak to you. ⁴He comes with miracles a thousand times as happy and as wonderful as those you ever dreamed or wished for in your dreams. ⁵His miracles are true. ⁶They will not fade when dreaming ends. ⁷They end the dream instead; and last forever, for they come from God to His dear Son, whose other name is you. ⁸Prepare yourself for miracles today. ⁹Today allow your Father’s ancient pledge to you and all your brothers to be kept.

As you are

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2I01F89JJc

"As you are" is unchangeable and eternal as God "IS".

Our part is merely to release all obstacles that stand in the way of our oneness in God. 

In our Holy Wholeness we go out to perform God's miracles. 


True gratitude is for the Giver of miracles!


A Course in Miracles

The ego is a wrong-minded attempt

to perceive yourself as you wish to be,

 rather than as you are.

Yet you can know yourself only as you are,

because that is all you can be sure of.

Everything else is open to question.

Lesson 267

My heart is beating in the peace of God.

1. Surrounding me is all the life that God created in His Love. ²It calls to me in every heartbeat and in every breath; in every action and in every thought. ³Peace fills my heart, and floods my body with the purpose of forgiveness. ⁴Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the world is given me. ⁵Each heartbeat brings me peace; each breath infuses me with strength. ⁶I am a messenger of God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever quiet and at peace within His loving Arms. ⁷Each heartbeat calls His Name, and every one is answered by His Voice, assuring me I am at home in Him.

2. Let me attend Your Answer, not my own. ²Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of Love created. ³It is there and only there that I can be at home.

Absorbed in "Love"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wneDEeXQ0zs

Love created us lovable and loving. All that our Creator is~we are!

The path is always one of subtraction, not addition. The simplicity of restoring us to oneness in God's Love is merely opening up to releasing egoic illusions.

The first three steps in 12 step recovery are so powerfully profound and powerfully simple.


Step-1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol — that our lives had become unmanageable.

Step-2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

Step-3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.


A Course in Miracles

Lesson 264

I am surrounded by the Love of God.

1. Father, You stand before me and behind, beside me, in the place I see myself, and everywhere I go. ²You are in all the things I look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches for my own. ³In You time disappears, and place becomes a meaningless belief. ⁴For what surrounds Your Son and keeps him safe is Love itself. ⁵There is no source but this, and nothing is that does not share its holiness; that stands beyond Your one creation, or without the Love which holds all things within itself. ⁶Father, Your Son is like Yourself. ⁷We come to You in Your Own Name today, to be at peace within Your everlasting Love.

2. My brothers, join with me in this today. ²This is salvation’s prayer. ³Must we not join in what will save the world, along with us?

"Pause" pray-intuitively proceed


Weekly meditation for contemplation
Recorded to YOUTUBE
We will intuitively know what to do in situations that use to baffle us is a beautiful promise spoken about in the 9th step promise in recovery programs. When we go within (not out) and deep dive into the interior house cleaning we organically open up to God's guidance. Being a hollow bone for The Divine Spirit to move through us is also a life of intuitive living. 

This 9th step promise that is spoken about in 12 step recovery has everything to do with resting in the "Pause". 

The "Pause" is the place where we stop reacting, and breathe-pray-and than proceed. 

This "Pause" in my view is a sacred space of resting in God and turning inward to listen to the stillness of the whispering Voice of Truth. 
The vital key is stillness within the "Pause". 

Intuition is born out of humility and an honest desire to carry out the appropriate action that is moved by The Divine!

Having an interior experience of Grace and deep peace is a clear indication the correct answer has been given. 

When we are being given Power
to carry out Divine Will it is always intuitively inspired.
"BE" still
Trust the "Pause" and intuition will be there.

A Course in Miracles
6. Pause and be still a little while, and see how far you rise above the world, when you release your mind from chains and let it seek the level where it finds itself at home. ²It will be grateful to be free a while. ³It knows where it belongs. ⁴But free its wings, and it will fly in sureness and in joy to join its holy purpose. ⁵Let it rest in its Creator, there to be restored to sanity, to freedom and to love.

Wisdom of the Soul

Weekly meditation for contemplation
Recorded to YOUTUBE
The wisdom of the Soul's Journey holds within it the original intention of what the Divine Creator designed us to be. I refer to it as the Souls Journey simply because it's something I'm oriented to. 
The idea of the Soul for me is the intuitive memory and knowledge of God's plan for us each at a deep individual level, and a collective and non separate one as well. It is also the relational nature we have in The Divine. For me it is The Divine intimate Dance with and in God.

There is a beautiful phrase near the end of step three in a book known as the 12 steps and the 12 traditions-pg 40. I will paraphrase it here by sharing that it suggests we have misused our will power instead of attempting to bring it into alignment with God's intention for us. I recognize this as living our Soul's purpose by our union in The Divine.

We eventually come to find out that desires and instincts have gone awry and we have been driven by a hundred forms of fear which created negative patterns in the mental activity and in our behaviors. 

So when we finally get in alignment with God's Power, the true intention of our Divine life comes alive and it is expressed here in our world,
how beautiful. 

The wisdom of the Soul is the wisdom of our purpose here and intuitively knowing, not from the head, but knowing in the depths of our own Heart and Soul what we are designed to express here. 

As the obstacles to love's Presence is transformed from fear to faith, trauma to healing, anger to forgiveness, illusions to Truth, what remains is the wisdom of The Soul. 
We will intuitively be moved into healthy right action.
A Course in Miracles
¹²“Many are called but few are chosen” should be, “All are called but few choose to listen.” ¹³Therefore, they do not choose right. ¹⁴The “chosen ones” are merely those who choose right sooner. ¹⁵Right minds can do this now, and they will find rest unto their souls. ¹⁶God knows you only in peace, and this is your reality.

Humility

Weekly meditation for contemplation
Recorded to YOUTUBE
Humility is simply being right sized with God/Higher Power. My favorite metaphor is the Divine Ocean of God has millions of ripples moving in it's graceful dance of Unity. Each ripple is unique and yet connected to all the other ripples by the Ocean it self. The vital point is that the ripples are NOT the Ocean. 
Each ripple is the expression of it's Source. 
Humility is a vital spiritual principle that keeps us remembering we are "being" moved in a Divine flow of love.
Let go-let God!
~~~~~~~
A Course in Miracles

Of your ego you can do nothing to save yourself or others, but of your spirit you can do everything for the salvation of both. ²Humility is a lesson for the ego, not for the spirit. ³Spirit is beyond humility, because it recognizes its radiance and gladly sheds its light everywhere. ⁴The meek shall inherit the earth because their egos are humble, and this gives them truer perception. (ACIM, T-4.I.12:1-4)
