This blog title, “Lights to Heaven,” shows the power in illuminating the way to remembering who we are, and witnesses to my belief in and devotion to "A Course in Miracles", and my dedication to teaching it and commitment to following it. The essays I am guided to share are unscripted, and my interpretation of the workbook lessons of ACIM are part of my curriculum in becoming a Certified Teacher of Teachers of ACIM. Please share, love, and enjoy the miracle.

A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 35

A Course in Miracles

Workbook Lesson 35

 

"My mind is part of God's. I am very holy."

 

Interpreted by Roberta Gallop

 

Daily Welcome:  Hi everyone, I hope you had a restful sleep and a yummy breakfast. I had the chance to lay in bed today and just commune with God, that beautiful space of being. Kinda like what you and I got together, just this sense of being. Knowing it's here where we are accepted, that when we go on the path to the next lesson we are together, united in purpose and in our desire to share love that we are already in oneness and wholeness of God. Big hugs my precious students of the Course. Let's us go for it full on, wrapped up in the blanket of friendship and kindness. Yay God.

 

 

Prayer: My blessed and Wholly Spirit of which I am part, thank you for being in my life and guiding me to learn the lessons that keep me from knowing our oneness. Please teach me to be steadfast in my search, and open-minded and ready for what I find. Please grant me the knowledge of your Wholly will for me this day, and the power to carry it out. Please fill us with your compassion and teach us how to love. Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson: "My mind is part of God's. I am very holy." I enjoy this lesson cause it talks about how it really doesn't matter when it comes to the image of what we think we are, because our minds are part of God's, and therefore complete, no matter what phase of the story we are telling ourselves here. I am a princess, you have to do everything for me, I need a man that can instantly see my worth and buy me everything I want, whenever I want it for the rest of my life, who needs God. So in this state of mind I am not very aware of the total of Christ that I am, but it does not change the fact that I am. These are the ways we develop perceptions about our person and others, that block us from seeing the truth of our wholliness, our oneness with God. The interesting thing here, is that we not only see our little self with these limitations, rules, and scripts, we also see the others that way too. She is my mom; she has to love me, and always be here for me, and never treat me in an unkind, manipulating, or threatening fashion.

 

 

Thinking it Over: We use the labels to cut down on the percentage of our awareness of our true nature as the Christ. When I look at the boxes I put on myself and others it's a wonder I can fit a concept of God in at all. So I have been examining the labels today, those unspoken expectations that go with the territory. I love being with women, so that means I am considered lesbian, queer, I am either fem or butch, wearing either dresses or jeans. If I am butch I work and am only attracted to fems, if I am fem than I am only attracted to butches. When I was caught in the homosexual box it really interfered with my ability to know myself and others. I wasn't able to be authentic in myself. What labels do you use? How do they limit you from being your authenticity?

 

 

Tips & Tricks: A good tip at this point in our process, is that as we discover the labels we put on ourselves and others, it is a real good time to surrender, release, and forgive by asking the Wholly Spirit to help us see things differently, and truly be open to the challenges and changes that will surely come. See when we ask God for a change in things, it usually means lesson I call to myself that help me find a new perspective.

 

Upon Closing: Hey you guys, we got through this one as a complete and total unit, none the worse for wear. I so love our hanging out and finding our way home together. Thank you for being in my life and have a gentle and peaceful night. I'll see ya in the morning. Love & Light, Riki 🌈
