I am happy to review lessons 133 and 134 today.
Have thought so much lately about true forgiveness.
Forgiveness as described in lesson 134 as well as other places in the Course, especially at least for me, in The Song of Prayer, is acquired.
This means I need a new teacher.
I cannot do this process alone.
Do I have the willingness and trust to proceed?
Am I willing to be in a classroom, say, kindergarten, and begin anew.
Am I willing to be open-minded and open-hearted?
Am I willing to put aside, lay aside, relinquish all my dreams, all my idols, all my illusions, if only for a Holy Instant?
Isn’t this, after all, what “My mind holds only what I think with God” means? Isn’t this what “God is” means in a later lesson and then we cease to speak, something like that, means?
When I am in the moment, there is no past nor future.
There is no pain, no memory of pain in any form.
Guilt kills/destroys/annihilates/obliterates.
It is always a choice.
And I can choose again at any time.
Happy Memorial Day to USA residents and Happy Day to those who are not!
Love,
Gayle

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.
