The real problem

God is not concerned with what you are in the sight of men — only with what you are in His sight. Vernon Linwood Howard

The turning point again is realizing you were wrong. Just think within yourself how difficult this is—how difficult it is to say this to somebody who is a superior of yours, or an authority in your life—let alone someone like Jesus who comes along and says: "My very existence in your life is showing you that you are wrong." Just watch how stubbornly and ferociously you resist that. Nobody wants to be told that they are wrong, because, as we have already discussed in the workshop, to be told that you are wrong about anything specific is a direct reflection of the original fear: I was wrong about everything. I was wrong about God, wrong about Heaven, wrong about myself. And therefore I am wrong about everything I see in the world.

This is a real turning point.

Do Universal laws shape and control your life?

The reason the law of attraction does not work for 99% of the people is because most people don’t understand the difference between setting goals, which is an imaginative and rational process, and achieving goals, which is mostly a habitual and emotional process. In order to really activate the law of attraction or the law of resonance, as I prefer to call it, both logical and emotional parts of the brain need to be in coherence, in sync, like a beautiful symphony. John Aassaraf

Archeus

In alchemy, Archeus, or archaeus, is a term used generally to refer to the lowest and most dense aspect of the astral plane which presides over the growth and continuation of all living beings. [The vital principle or force believed by the Paracelsians to be responsible for alchemical reactions within living bodies, and hence for the growth and continuation of life. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/archeus]

Only what we are able to see as true within and about ourselves is of any real use to us.

"God has entrusted all His gifts to you.
Be witness in your happiness to how transformed
the mind becomes which chooses to accept His gifts, 
and feel the touch of Christ.

 Such is your mission now.
For God entrusts the giving of His gifts
to all who have received them.
He has shared His joy with you.

And now you go to share it with the world."

How to Get Along with Me

Let Him reveal all things to you, and be you undismayed because you are His Son.

Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake, and shine on me throughout the day today. Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You. And let me not forget my hourly thanksgiving that You have remained with me, and always will be there to hear my call to You and answer me. As evening comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and of Your Love. And let me sleep sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and happily aware I am Your Son. Amen

Golden Rules for Living

I will not permit myself to think about what might happen tomorrow.

I STOOD YESTERDAY I CAN STAND TODAY (BY DOROTHY DIX)

remembering that God goes with you wherever you go."

 Logan Pearsall Smith packed a lot of wisdom into a few words when he said:

Just for today by Frank Crane

Here are ten resolutions to make when you awake in the morning.They are Just for One Day. Think of them not as a life task but as a day’s work.These things will give you pleasure. Yet they require will power. You don’t need resolutions to do what is easy.

Prayer is an aspiration of the heart.

The important thing is not to think much, but to love much;
and so do that which best stirs you to love.

Agree to Enter into the Battle and You will Find True Help Guy Finley

Reality and truth are non-dualistic.

If you have an investment in proving that the Holy Spirit or Jesus is a magician who does things for you in the world, waves a magic wand like Merlin, you will prove it in terms of something in a relationship, a job, or even a check that arrives in the mail to pay for next month's mortgage. Or, when you want a parking space and you want to prove that is what the Course is about, you will find passages that will prove that to you, because there are sentences that seem to say that. If you want to prove that physical relationships are important, you will find statements in the Course that will prove that to you. Someone once took a very meaningful and beautiful section in the Course as proof that this is a course on homosexuality, and if you read it a certain way that is what it says. If you want to prove that relationships are real in the body, then you will read this course in a way that it tells you that you forgive someone else.

Put Yourself in Heavenly Hands.

"God is your safety in every circumstance.
His Voice speaks for Him in all situations
and in every aspect of all situations,
telling you exactly what to do to
call upon His strength and His protection.
There are no exceptions because
  God has no exceptions."

ACIM Lesson 47.3

Faith makes all things possible... love makes all things easy. - Dwight L. Moody

'You would think everyone would eagerly welcome these guides.'

You are the light!

"Be comforted, and feel
the Holy Spirit watching over you in
love and perfect confidence in what He sees.
He knows the Son of God, and shares
his Father's certainty the universe rests in
  his gentle hands in safety and in peace.
