Daily Welcome:  Good morning buds, blessed day. We had a great sleep, time to be open and move on to the next lesson, a bunch of new puzzle pieces to help us fill in the picture of our journey to awakening. I know the reviews can be a bit disjointed, but they are very helpful to jog our memories. Sometimes it's just fun to look back where we first started and how far we are now. I would love a group hug you guys, and then just go for it. We can do this all day long. Enjoy my lovelies.

 

 

Prayer: Blessed God, I love you, I don't seem to understand too much, I know you are with me and in me. Please guide us to the change of mind we need to know you and accept you. Please grant us the faith to know that you really are the way out, and that you have created us to explore with you. We can do no wrong, please help us to get past the separation and awaken the world. Thank you for helping us see and thank you for teaching us. Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson:  " The review for today covers Lessons 36 to 40"

 

"My holiness envelops everything I see." -  The Wholeness I am as the Son of God covers everything in every way, the wholeness of oneness of all there is. So, the oneness embraces everything I see, because God cannot be apart from what I see.

 

"My holiness blesses the world." – The wholeness of who we are as the Son of God restores our vision to the garden. We feel the peace, joy and love of God, without judgement or separation.

 

"There is nothing my holiness cannot do." – Being one with God, there is nothing I am that is apart from God, so there is nothing I can not do. This speaks to my willingness to release my illusion of free will and owning my oneness.

 

"My holiness is my salvation." – My oneness with God is my salvation because there is nothing that is not God, there is nothing negative, no devil no hell, no danger on any level or in anyway.

 

"I am blessed as a Son of God." – God loves His Son, we are one with Him, we can create instantly and bring light to the world.

 

 

Thinking it Over: The hardest part for me with this set of puzzle pieces is the mention that I am wholly and I am blessed. I have been such a master of seeing myself as weak, pathetic, and worthless so the idea that I am filled with light, and beautiful, joyful and peaceful is a little hard to swallow. What stands in your ways of believing your Wholliness?

 

 

Tips & Tricks: Now it is a good time to have another reminder about being gentle with yourself, stay open to what you start to believe as your mind becomes more open. Don't judge yourself, just surrender, release, and forgive as the grievances come up. Some days it will feel like you are making great strides and others it will feel like your brain is a wet noodle, love it anyway, accept the experience anyway. Eat well, sleep gently, be merciful with yourself and others and remember to reach to the Wholly Spirit for help to Awaken.

 

Upon Closing: We did it, another lesson under our belts, we are getting good, every day and every way. We don't have to do it perfect, or spiritually or anything else, just be willing to show up and do the exercises and keep connecting to God and you will be amazed how everything flows together. I pray for you guys a lot; it helps me to feel part of the love. There are many that can make the Course look easy, but the greatest thing about it, is that even though Ascension will happen, it is not a one size fits all. It happens by design and God's timing is impeccable. Let's go bird watching for a little bit and see how many colors of hummingbirds we can spot. Have a most yummy and peaceful night my loving adventurers, love and light, Riki 🌈

Daily Welcome:  Good Morning Sunshines, Yay, we are fast approaching the 3^rd section, and each one gets a little deeper and a little deeper into understanding the relationship between Father and Son. I hope your rest was gentle and you love seeing me as much as I love seeing you. This is fun, Let's have a group hug and twist on down the road. Love you guys, last one there is a rainbow ameba.

 

 

Prayer: Gentle and loving Father, I beg you to awaken me, I beg you to show me the way home to you, so I can awaken from this dream. I need you, I need to know you, I need to see me in you. I want to know your mind, I want to know us as one. Please guide me, please grant me your courage and strength to keep on, to not turn back to playing with my toys. Thank you for teaching us. Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson: " The review for today covers Lessons 31 to 35"

 

"I am not the victim of the world I see." – This world does not hold me prisoner, and I don't have to think of myself as held here or victimized against my will. Though I like to see my self as little and pathetic, and weak and unable to do anything, it does not change the fact that I am a God.

 

"I have invented the world I see." - I made this world the way it is, and I can choose not to see it, I can choose to see the truth and release this one, by how I look at it. And as far as free will goes, that is all the choice I truly have, to see it through God's eyes or stay stuck here.

 

"There is another way of looking at the world." – This one I know is true, I have experienced the other way and it is beautiful, peaceful, and calm, I am not conflicted, or confused, and it was good while it lasted, but I am staying open to seeing with God,

 

"I could see peace instead of this." – To know this, is awesome, we are still figuring out how to let go and let it happen, but that there is a way out of our craziness is exciting. God's peace is wonderful to just be and know all is well.

 

"My mind is part of God's." – This is huge and explains why the world we made isn't real, and why we can only see with God, because I am in God, and his mind is right there for me. I am not alone on my own, I actually can think with God's mind.

 

 

Thinking it Over: How about that, these puzzle pieces really point to the fact that we can upgrade huge, if we will just be willing to give up our little self, to see how magnificent and amazing we truly are. After all we are the Son of God, it doesn't get more huge than that. We are in the mind of God, God is with us always, the dream can end anytime. It is strange for me, when I read this review lesson, my mind begins looking to see where God ends, and where I start, I look around for God. Well, if I am in God and He is in me and with me always, then looking for Him like we are separate doesn't make any sense. Does it make sense to you?

 

 

Tips & Tricks: I am finding at this point my mind is looking for ways to self-sabotage my progress. It is like the little me is fighting for my life. So, I keep asking the Wholly Spirit to be with me. And help me to release and see things differently. I can also use it as a validation that the mind ordering of the Course is working. If you find you are sabotaging yourself, be gentle with you and just ask to see things differently.

 

Upon Closing: That was quite the revealing puzzle pieces, I am seeing more of the puzzle every minute, I hope you are too. The walk was enlightening, but the path was a little winding. We are doing such an amazing job, just putting one foot in front of the other. We got this all day long. Let's take a sec to find some four-leaf clovers, not for the luck, but for the zen of it. Hugs all around, have a blessed night. Love & Light, Riki 🌈

Daily Welcome:  Hi my sweet hiking buddies, I love you soooo, and I am always looking forward to our time together, and hearing about your adventures along the way. I think it's interesting how I can feel alone in a heartbeat. So thank you guys for hanging out with me, and encouraging me to believe in oneness. Today I think it would be cool to have a Roman chariot ride, I can't really call it a race because we are all one and we get there when we do. Group hug all around. Let's have a fun and bubbly time.

 

 

Prayer: Blessed Wholly Spirit, thank you for guiding us, and for showing us how to find our way home. Please do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. Thank you for helping to keep our minds open, and recognize that You are the beautiful messenger of God, that we can feel and reach too. Through you I know I get the answers to help the world. You are that still small voice in my night that tells me all is well. Thank you for teaching us, thank you for loving us. Allways.

 

Workbook Lesson:  " The review for today covers Lessons 26 to 30:  "

 

"My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability." – I am strong and invincible, but my thoughts of separateness are making me attack myself, I can not see clearly. Attacking myself keeps me here and not realizing my connection to God.

 

"Above all else I want to see." – I want to see the oneness above everything, I wanna stop making illusions that keep me blind to God's love. I want to release everything I have made because it blocks me from recognizing the light of God.

 

"Above all else I want to see differently." – As I become more aware of the truth, that of myself I can only see illusion, and that this is causing all my imagined pain for the world, my biggest desire it to see differently, and as I that becomes my focus God will guide me to see.

 

"God is in everything I see." – The comfort of knowing that God is with me allways and that I can't truly see apart from God is huge. It allows me to let go and to stop making things up in my mind and beating myself up and believing the lies I keep telling myself.

 

"God is in everything I see because God is in my mind."  - It is so awesome to get clear enough to get out of my way through release and forgiveness, to be able to know I can feel God, and be one with God always. The hope and faith these puzzle pieces bring are phenomenal.

 

Thinking it Over: This review lesson kinda let me feel like I was flipping a flip book, ya know the ones you flip through fast and they create motion. I start to get dizzy cause I relax, release and see through God's sight and then I get caught in emotional jackpots, many times triggered by others and end up seeing a split world of judgment all over again. I see with love, I see with criticism, then I do, then I don't, God's, mine, God's, mine, flip, flip, flip. My teacher talks about the two coins going round and round in the funnel, spinning faster and faster, I am starting to understand the analogy. At this point I can tell the difference between the two, but I don't always recognize how I got there. Can you recognize when you get there?

 

Tips & Tricks: By this time, I would suspect you are starting to get it, and lose it at the same time. I find what works best is when I can just go with the flow, and accept how I feel, or don't feel as part of the will of God and asking the Wholly Spirit to help me see things differently. To know I am right where I am supposed to be, and God is with me wherever I am, so I am not alone, ever. Don't judge, just be.

 

Upon Closing: Hey Spiritual Buddies, I enjoyed this one, but I must admit I started walking a little funny towards the end of the lesson, I felt torn and pulled in two directions, to be honest, actually in a whole hell of a lot more directions than that. Let's sit for a while and enjoy some cheese and crackers. We can also get the cider from the creek. Have a blessed night my loves, I'll see ya tomorrow. Love & Light, Riki 🌈

Daily Welcome:  Lots of Love and Hugs, I hope you sweet ones, had a relaxed and less than chaotic night, cause I am raring to go and moving on down the road, we can walk a little and sit a little if you like. Sometimes these review lessons can feel like a strong wind pushing us backwards, but we can take it, we have determination for days. Remember to reach to your support systems when things start feeling a little wonky. Hugs around and let's go for it.

 

 

Prayer: My all powerful God, We love you and are so grateful you created us so we could hangout and have all these cool experiences. Please help us to reach to your strength and not feel so confused and little. Please remind us that you are with us always, and we can reach to your Wholly Spirit anytime we need help along the way. Thank you for guiding us and thank you for teaching us. Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson:  " The review for today covers Lessons 21 to 25"

 

"I am determined to see things differently." – It is a natural reaction to realizing we have been miscreating all over the place and are causing a lot of pain. Where we take the responsibility to want to see the truth above all else, we will.

 

"What I see is a form of vengeance." – I can not see clearly, my anger is against God and against the world, I chose free will and believe I disobeyed God. I now realize it was my misunderstanding, and God just started the game so we could play together.

 

"I can escape from this world by giving up attack thoughts." – It becomes clear that as I give up my thoughts of separation, I can escape this world of vengeance I have made, by giving up what I think, and being open to what God thinks.

 

"I do not perceive my own best interests." – It is very clear that I can't think straight, and that I have no concept of what is best for me, especially since I see a world of bodies, instead of the oneness that I am as the Son of God.

 

"I do not know what anything is for." – I am taking God's love and beauty and perfect peace and making weapons to hurt myself and to keep me from the Oneness of God, to keep the illusion of being separate from God.

 

Thinking it Over: Isn't it crazy and upside down, that the peace, love, and joy we want most we hide from, thinking we have the free will to make things however we want them. While it is so obvious that what ever we are doing ain't workin. There are none so blind than those that will not see. I know for me, the last thing I wanna look at, is anything that is gonna make me feel little and helpless and cause me pain. In other words, I don't wanna look at myself. What are you having a hard time looking at? Why?

 

Tips & Tricks: I'm finding these reviews to be a little up and down, some just bring me a sense of peace and others trigger me to no end. So, I am working on just accepting the process as much as I can and staying out of the judgment and criticism. When I can focus on the gratitude that the Course is working, it doesn't make everything all better, but it sure helps. It also helps when I remember why I started the Course in the first place. The reason I started the Course was I felt drawn to it and when I had stopped it for even a little while I would get the urging to keep going and pick it back up. I craved the miracle, and I was determined to achieve it.

 

Upon Closing: Yay, we did it, I think we are getting used to putting this puzzle together, I know I'm not as fearful as I was. A good part of that is being with you guys, I don't feel alone, I feel emotionally supported and it's fun, that we all reach to God at the same time. I am goin skinny dippen in creek, join me if you like. Have a blessed night. Love & Light, Riki 🌈

Daily Welcome:  Hey my sweet angels, good morning to ya. I got my rest so I am ready for the 4^th review lesson in a row. I know it can feel like a lot, but it's still the best policy to do one lesson at a time, doing the exercises to the best of your ability, and if you have slowed down a bit, be gentle with yourself, get back on the horse, but don't try to catch up by doing a bunch at a time. I just love you guys, this is not a race, just a slow steady crawl works. My mind is starting to feel like an accordion today, so I think I will call today official blankie and pillow day and just go slow and ask Daddy to lead us all. I hope you have a blessed and yummy day.  Big hugs you guys. 

 

 

Prayer: Blessed and gentle Wholly Spirit, thank you for being the messenger, thank you for walking beside us, and guiding us home. Thank you for bringing the change in perception that brings about miracles. Please remind us that we are not bodies, please remind us that God is with us allways, and please grant us the strength to hang in there no matter what. Thank you for teaching us how to awaken and to accept love. Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson:  " The review for today covers Lessons 16 to 20:  "

 

"I have no neutral thoughts." – Since my mind makes the thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with good and bad, my thoughts are never neutral, and that is what keeps us from God's peace.

 

"I see no neutral things." – Since my thoughts are not neutral, neither are the imaginary images I create. Because of the split in my mind there is separation. The things I see are always good or bad.

 

"I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing." – Because we are of the same one mind of God, and that mind is split, we all see through the same separated mind, onto the illusions we have made. Because we see with the body's eyes and not God's all knowing spiritual sight.

 

"I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts." – Because we think with a mind that is preoccupied with free will choice, brought on by the knowledge of good and evil, we are all experiencing the same results of what we think with that split mind.

 

"I am determined to see." – Because our minds are split, we cannot see things as they truly are, that is why we see only illusion, why we see only the past, why I can't see anything as it is. And which brings about the need, and the determination to see with the clear one mind of God.

 

Thinking it Over: I love the natural progression, with the end result being, get me the bleep out of here God. HELP!! It becomes time to take responsibility for my miscreating, and it doesn't mean to beat myself up, it just means to be willing to see things differently through the grace of the Wholly Spirit and being open to releasing and forgiving the mess my imagining has made. What would taking responsibility look like for you?

 

 

Tips & Tricks: Please remember the reviews can be kinda crazy, so it is suggested to take the time to journal and look at the puzzle pieces as they come up. We are walking through the disorder so that God can create order in our minds. Our best bet is to stay as open and willing as possible to leave God in charge and focus on accepting things as they are. I do notice during this process, I find my mind going blank, these are the times when I am not thinking anything, just waiting for God to show me what to do next.

 

Upon Closing: My beautiful adventurers, today was definitely a day, not all stressful but all cupcakes and unicorns either, I think I landed somewhere in the middle. Even though it was that kinda day. I do feel proud of myself and I am extremely proud of us and how we are hanging in there and sharing the love. Have a blessed and wonderful night, and know you are worth it. Love & Light, Riki 🌈

Daily Welcome:  Blessed day, gorgeous students of the Course, I hope your night was restful and your breakfast was yummy. I did a lot of reaching to the Wholly Spirit this morning and praying to just become and accept who God would have me be. These reviews are good, they can become a little unsettling though as the puzzle pieces are put into place. So today is a leisure suit Larry day, just dress fashionable casual, sweats are a must. Love and hugs you sweet buddies and let's keep on truckin, but at a casual pace.

 

Prayer: Blessed Christ, thank you for letting us play in the pool too. Sometimes, especially while I am going through life's lessons, I'm not always that keen on being the barbie doll, but at other times when I feel the love, and know I am helping to awaken the world, being a barbie doll has its benefits. Please grant us what we need to see the truth, to realize we never left the garden, and that we are all one, and a powerful creator like Daddy. Thank you for guiding us. Thank you for teaching us, and for making life fun. Allways.

 

Workbook Lesson:  " The review for today covers Lessons 11 to 15"

 

"My meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless world." – My thoughts are without meaning because they are illusions, and since we can only make fake images, fantasies, the world we see is meaningless. It isn't real.

 

"I am upset because I see a meaningless world." – Being in a fake world really screws me up, it was a vague feeling something was very wrong, but had no idea what it was. I felt anxious and unable to settle down and relax.

 

"A meaningless world engenders fear." – Because I couldn't settle down, I was little and fearful all the time. I felt trapped and so scared because I knew something was very wrong, but I couldn't fix it, and other people just thought I was nuts for questioning it.

 

"God did not create a meaningless world." – A huge sigh of relief, God's world has meaning, so I must be looking at this completely wrong. And if I reach to God, I can find the world that does make sense to me.

 

"My thoughts are images that I have made." – So, my little mind thinks the thoughts that made the images, over and over again. And this is what has made all the illusions and fantasies and also why the world I see has no meaning.

 

Thinking it Over: This got me to thinking about my best fantasies, they aren't real, but they sure were fun at the time. Like I was gonna have 10 babies and 10 cats, I was gonna be an international psychic and people would pay thousands of dollars just to have me read them. I was also gonna have houses all over the world. It blows me away to realize yes, that was a fantasy, but so was everything else. What is your fantasy within a fantasy?

 

 

Tips & Tricks: I have found finding out I was on fantasy island is one thing, but to get me to give it up was like trying to take a sirloin steak away from a bull mastiff. I am very addicted to my fantasies, and even though I knew they weren't real, and I used them to keep me from God, the fear of trusting what the Course was teaching me, brought up so much anxiety. Please just believe in the process, and let it happen in God's time. When we try to "fix it", we just dig ourselves in deeper. Acceptance is the answer, just going with the flow and not getting caught up in the details.

 

Upon Closing: Wow, that was so much fun, it seemed like when we went at an easy gentle pace, everything just fell in line, and we were turning the last bend before we knew it. You guys make all the difference for me, because it is one thing to learn the lessons for myself, but it is another thing to share my Love for God along the way. May your night be a nice piece of chocolate cake, with chocolate ice cream and rainbow sprinkles. Hugs. Love & Light, Riki 🌈
