99 – Salvation is my only function here.
100 – My part is essential in God’s plan for salvation.
Salvation and forgiveness are the same.
Salvation and forgiveness are the bridge to the truth. I am here to “work” miracles, that is, shifting my mind from fear to love with His Assistance. That is my function here, simply to forgive. Forgive all that I see and experience and recognize it is not what my Father created. We have had it in our minds that God abandoned us in this horrid world with all the trials and tribulations, yet it is so far-fetched. He loves us and He wants us to remember Him.
I know I have to continue to allow the light to shine in those darkened crevices where anxiety or concern can dwell, where even sadness can dwell. Sometimes it seems to come out of nowhere, yet being present means I have forgotten and His light is there to strengthen me and bring me peace. I’m willing to forgive and allow fear to vanish from my sight.
I have my part to play here in God’s plan for salvation. I have learned that it is forgiveness. As I forgive, I become happy. Of course I am happy because I no longer hold the burden of fear that weighs me down, oh so heavily. Joy is complete with God. God does not wish I toil in strife and feel helpless, hopeless and alone. I am never alone for He is always with me despite the outside circumstances. I carry Him with me wherever I go and I can stop for a moment and remember Him in those five precious minutes every hour. I can reach Him for He is here now and always for I am essential to His plan for salvation, and so are you.
Peace,
Rev. Deb

Since you’re here… …we have a small favor to ask. More people are reading our posts, listening to our audios and watching our videos than ever before but far fewer are donating for it. As an all-volunteer ministry, you can see why we need to ask for your help. MiraclesOne provides ACIM resources freely however it takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe in encouraging others to practically apply the Course principles in their lives – because it might just make the one difference in your life. If everyone who reads, listens or watches and likes what we offer helps to pay for it we can continue to afford our expenses and keep our resources FREE to all ACIM Students. Monthly Donors receive free gifts in appreciation for their support.
