“God, being Love, is also happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of joy.”
I don’t want to fear God. I want to realize, to the depths of my being, that God is indeed the source of joy, that I am innocent along with everyone else, and that my deepest desire is to know our oneness with God.
Tonight, I had a glimpse of joy. I love birds, and I found a video on YouTube featuring a man talking to a wild raven. Of course, being blind, I couldn’t see either one of them, but what I heard was the man’s appreciative comments and delighted laughter and the raven’s croaks and squawks, which sounded, at times, as if the bird was laughing too.
Blessings,
Mari

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.
