A Course in Miracles
Workbook Lesson 70
Interpreted by Roberta Gallop
Daily Welcome: Blessed day my beauties, I am so excited that we get to play, grow, and love as we awaken together. Sometimes I can get a little tired of the same routine, but I also know the Course is helping us to calm our mind, and not go so nuts. Big group hug and then just take a leisurely walk with those I care about and who are just as dedicated as I am.
Prayer: Blessed and loving Father, we get so weary, especially when you tell us the little self down here can't save us, and only the Christ Self can. Please grant us the knowledge of your wholly will for us and the power to carry that out. Thank you for creating us and for being with us on this journey. I am glad we are not alone, and that we can feel your love within us. Thank you for leading us home and for teaching us. Allways.
Workbook Lesson: "My salvation comes from me." I just enjoy this one to pieces, it takes a little remembering, but it does tell the truth. My salvation, my awakening comes from my Christ self and not my little self. I can have all these plans, hopes, wishes and dreams, but here in separation land, nothin means nothin. So, it is when I stay open and allow Christ to come through me that the salvation of the world happens. My salvation does not come from how much money I have, or how good my job is, or how wonderful my husband is or how many friends I have, it comes from God. It does not depend on how smart or how pretty I am, how hard I study or if I have plastic surgery on everything. It comes from reaching, releasing, forgiveness and holding space for it to happen. It brought comfort to me, because if it was up to my little me, I would be concerned and rightly so I would mess it up and would so bury myself I would never see the light. So, by working the Course and allowing it to order our mind, we can slow down enough to see.
Thinking it Over: I thought my salvation came from being so special that everyone wanted me. I thought my salvation came from being in a relationship where I was loved and cared for. I thought my salvation came from how many good deeds I did and how kind and compassionate I was. So, I was so surprised when I realized when my Higher Self says it's time, then it's time. Where did you think your salvation came from? What did you do to try to bring it about?
Tips & Tricks: The tip is about realizing my little self can do very little, and to pray for the faith to believe God is doing for us what we cannot do for ourselves. A lot of times we will judge ourselves based on what we believe we are supposed to do, and we should our selves to death. As long as I think I am God and that I have free will, then I will believe everything depends on me. So, it is important to just let things happen as they do and not get caught up in the timing or the details. Remember to be in the moment as much as possible. Trying to define things or have expectations of things can be a setup. We either end up resentful because something didn't happen or something did happen.
Upon Closing: Well, that was so relaxing and it was great to just move along at our own pace, knowing that salvation is not in my timing but, God's. I think a nice dunk in the creek, clothing optional is just what the doctor ordered. Just a gentle and relaxing soak and just enjoy this moment, without stress or strain, or definition. Then let's eat some yummy apples and relax in the cool grass. The feeling of knowing you are right where you are supposed to be, especially with those you love and respect. Please have a blessed night and get plenty of rest. Love & Light, Riki 🌈
