Many things are possible.



The question is what’s probable. ~ Father Brown
Miracles are natural signs of forgiveness. Through miracles you accept God's forgiveness by extending it to others. ~  Principles of Miracles #21
Think of the Holy Spirit as the most advanced GPS ever built. It is omniscient, always present, and perfectly accurate. It has a map of the entire earth pre-loaded, it is impossible to go somewhere that it doesn’t know about. It runs on a battery which will never run out. It never loses its signal from God, ever. It knows exactly where you are, to the exact millimeter. It tells you what you need to do to get from wherever you are to the final destination, in the most optimal way. It knows the shortcuts, the traffic situation, toll roads, speed cameras. The Holy Spirit knows everything. It is outside of time and space, but operates within its constraints to communicate with us. The Holy Spirit is the memory of God. The Holy Spirit is my GPS
Miracles are associated with fear only because of the belief that darkness can hide. You believe that what your physical eyes cannot see does not exist. This leads to a denial of spiritual sight. ~  Principles of Miracles #22
A newly discovered chapter in the Book of Genesis has provided the answer
to "Where do pets come from?"


Adam and Eve said, "Lord, when we were in the garden, you walked with us
every day. Now we do not see you any more. We are lonesome here, and it is
difficult for us to remember how much you love us."

And God said, “I will create a companion for you that will be with you and
who will be a reflection of my love for you, so that you will love me even
when you cannot see me. Regardless of how selfish or childish or unlovable
you may be, this new companion will accept you as you are and will love
you as I do, in spite of yourselves."

And God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam and Eve.

And it was a good animal.

And God was pleased.

And the new animal was pleased to be with Adam and Eve and he wagged his
tail.
And Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all the animals in the Kingdom
and I cannot think of a name for this new animal."

And God said, “I have created this new animal to be a reflection of my
love for you, his name will be a reflection of my own name, and you will
call him
DOG."

And Dog lived with Adam and Eve and was a companion to them and loved
them.

And they were comforted.

And God was pleased.

And Dog was content and wagged his tail.

After a while, it came to pass that an angel came to the Lord and said,
"Lord, Adam and Eve have become filled with pride. They strut and preen
like peacocks and they believe they are worthy of adoration. Dog has
indeed taught them that they are loved, but perhaps too well."

And God said, I will create for them a companion who will be with them and
who will see them as they are. The companion will remind them of their
limitations, so they will know that they are not always worthy of
adoration."

And God created CAT to be a companion to Adam and Eve.

And Cat would not obey them. And when Adam and Eve gazed into Cat's eyes,
they were reminded that they were not the supreme beings.

And Adam and Eve learned humility.

And they were greatly improved.

And God was pleased

And Dog was happy.

And Cat didn't give a hoot one way or the other.

Miracles rearrange perception and place all levels in true perspective. This is healing because sickness comes from confusing the levels. ~  Principles of Miracles #23
Sunday, Feb 9 2014,  I went to a Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) service in Kitchener. It was deeply peaceful. Being in the “silence” for an hour. I didn’t want to come out. WOW!!!
I will there be light. Let me behold the light that reflects
God's Will and mine.
Lesson 73
Miracles enable you to heal the sick and raise the dead because you made sickness and death yourself, and can therefore abolish both. You are a miracle, capable of creating in the likeness of your Creator. Everything else is your own nightmare, and does not exist. Only the creations of light are real. ~  Principles of Miracles #24
There is no order of difficulty in miracles, which are expressions of love.
Two common mistakes in ACIM are:
One - the use of the term “ascension”. If there is nothing there then what is there to ascend to. The body is merely a vessel for learning, it isn’t real.
Two – which has been misaligned, misinterpreted and misappropriated, is the notion of holding one foot in the door for someone else. The primary focus of a Course in Miracles is the realization of ONE-ness through forgiveness and accepting the ATONEMENT for YOUR-self, not someone else.
Words are merely symbols of understanding. Experience and practical application are everything.
A “knowing” person knows when to act and in the same vein a “knowing” person knows when to speak or when to respond.
Miracles are part of an interlocking chain of forgiveness which, when completed, is the Atonement. Atonement works all the time and in all the dimensions of time.~  Principles of Miracles #25

Remember: Expect Miracles!
