Wouldn't it be tremendous …



 “The Tao never does anything, yet through it all things are done. If powerful men and women could center themselves in it, the whole world would be transformed by itself, in its natural rhythms. People would be content with their simple, everyday lives, in harmony, and free of desire. When there is no desire, all things are at peace.” ~ Tao Te Ching

"I am as God created me.

Is there a greatness that is hiding within you?



His promise is always, "Seek and you will find,"
and under His guidance you cannot be defeated.

His is the journey to accomplishment,
and the goal He sets before you He will give you.
For He will never deceive God's Son
whom He loves with the Love of the Father.

You will undertake a journey because
you are not at home in this world.
And you will search for your home
whether you realize where it is or not.
If you believe it is outside you the search will be futile,
for you will be seeking it where it is not.
You do not remember how to look within
for you do not believe your home is there.
Yet the Holy Spirit remembers it for you,
and He will guide you to your home
because that is His mission.
As He fulfills His mission He will teach you yours,
for your mission is the same as His.
By guiding your brothers home
you are but following Him."
ACIM TM.12.IV.4.5-7, 5.
workwithgrace: I should be exactly as I am, no more, no less. I should not be good. (You might even have fun laughing with the turnaround that you should be really bad)

I am simply this....

You shall continue to be confused and thwarted until you find the cause of your confusion.



"When you are down earning your living, you have built in to you knowledge that you must obey instructions for your work. Whether it’s bookkeeping or driving a truck or building machinery you understand the instructions given you at that place of employment must be followed. And there’s good reason for it. You follow instructions you get good results — the product comes out nicely. If you drive your car you’ve had training and experience in driving your automobile under various conditions. It’s built into you to follow instructions for driving your car sensibly and safely and even courteously. These instructions make everything run as smooth as things can run in this uncomfortable world.
We’re going to talk at the start here this morning about you following higher instructions, which can draw you upward from the very low and painful level of very human life.
Now let me put it simply as it can be put at the very start so that you have no excuse now for continuing to be as careless as you have been about your own life. You say you value your life. You don’t value it at all! You’ve been throwing it away! Don’t tell me that you value your life, that you like you. If you liked it you’d be doing something different to it than what you’d been doing up to now.
It’s like you’ve seen the travel logs of the pack horses going down the Grand Canyon carrying people down there. We’re so fixed like these packed animals in our behavior going along a certain path that we’re mule-like in our stubbornness and we won’t let anything jolt us out of those patterns for fear that we might find something new.
You fear anything that is outside your present nature and you resist it. And this is why you are not efficient in following simple instructions. You’re going to hear a lot of them by the time we end here about forty-three minutes from now."

My presence creates peace.



Nothing is missing, lacking, absent, deficient about anything in this moment.
Allow the grace of love to carry you to the place where your dreams are manifested into reality. Hear the soft whisper of your soul and beckon to its call. - Abby Gooch http://www.intuitiontoincomesummit.com/

"By feeling the emotions, you can get to an understanding; you can get to see what it is you lost, and experience it. We need to become aware of our emotions in order to understand and see our essence; emotions are a guide and point to where essence has been lost....Essence is something more real and more substantial than emotions. Essence is something as real as your blood." ~ A.H. Almaas

… who would you be without the belief that you could fail, screw it up….or that it would be horrible to be hated, shunned or criticized?

Each Morning is a New Beginning



Audio Prayer for Peace http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-HVMuZJkRg Enjoy this Prayer on Making a Reservation for Peace from Robin Duncan's "Miracles in Prayer" book at: http://www.freeprayerbook.com/

Father, Your way is what I choose today. Where it would lead me do I choose to go; what it would have me do I choose to do. Your way is certain, and the end secure. The memory of You awaits me there. And all my sorrows end in Your embrace, which You have promised to Your Son, who thought mistakenly that he had wandered from the sure protection of Your loving Arms. ACIM

When you first awaken take a few moments to scan what you have planned for the day. Notice what you are looking forward to, and also where you may feel some resistance. 
If you become aware that some of your current thoughts, words and actions are in conflict with your authentic self, you may want to make some different choices. Reflecting upon awakening is a good place to start taking back your life; thought-by-thought, word-by-word and step-by-step.

Every sleeping person is convinced he is awake.



from~Vernon Linwood Howard
My body, Father, cannot be Your Son. And what is not created cannot be sinful nor sinless; neither good nor bad. Let me not see my body more than a wholly neutral thing; of service for a while and fit to serve, to keep its usefulness while it can serve, and then to be replaced for greater good. Let me, then, use this dream to help Your plan that we awaken from all dreams we made. ACIM
God's Name can not be heard without response, nor said without an echo in the mind that calls you to remember. Say His Name, and you invite the angels to surround the ground on which you stand, and sing to you as they spread out their wings to keep you safe, and shelter you from every worldly thought that would intrude upon your holiness. ACIM

Put out your hand, and see how easily the door swings open with your one intent to go beyond it. Angels light the way, so that all darkness vanishes, and you are standing in a light so bright and clear that you can understand all things you see. A tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, will make you pause before you realize the world you see before you in the light reflects the truth you knew, and did not quite forget in wandering away in dreams. No one can fail who seeks to reach the truth. ACiM - Workbook Lesson 131

A happy outcome to all things is sure.



The distinction between persuasion and manipulation.  Marie Forleo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4tzs2dF0ek#t=151

Atonement corrects illusions, not truth. Therefore, it corrects what never was. ACiM - Manual for Teachers - Section 2 - Who Are Their Pupils?

Anyone can do this. You do not need to be special.
To be full of love, you need only to stop and see if what you are imagining is actually true.
See if there is something present besides thinking.
See if you are safe. Be Full of Love–Question Your Fears workwithgrace

Put all your faith in the Love of God within you; eternal, changeless and forever unfailing.



"The universe will give you what you need, against your best thought....When you do The Work and turn your thoughts around, you find advantages for what happens. You win if you're right, you win if you're wrong. In my life I always win, win, win, win..." ~ Byron Katie

I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing. The idea for today is another step in learning that the thoughts which give rise to what you see are never neutral or unimportant. It also emphasizes the idea that minds are joined, which will be given increasing stress later on.
Today's idea does not refer to what you see as much as to how you see it. ACiM - Workbook Lesson 18

You forgot your life is a game.



PurposeFairy: There’s nothing wrong with having abundance in your life, with loving people and appreciating the beauty that surrounds you. But when you become attached to all of them and when you use them as an excuse as to why you’re not going where your heart wants you to go and why you’re not walking on the path your Soul wants you to be walking, that’s when you move away from your own Divinity.
Being attached prevents us

Events are not problems, they're just events.



Divine Inspiration from Love, Bliss, and Peace


It's easy to spend a lot of time splashing around on top of the water of life, preoccupied with thoughts such as "I should be more like this, or more like that".

leave everything you know behind



Belief produces the results of belief, and the penalties it affixes last so long as the belief and are inseparable from it. The remedy consists in probing the trouble to the bottom, in finding and casting out by denial the error of belief which produces a mortal disorder, never honoring erroneous belief with the title of law nor yielding obedience to it. Truth, Life, and Love are the only legitimate and eternal demands on man, and they are spiritual lawgivers, enforcing obedience through divine statutes.

Enter In.



I am always drawing into my world that which I am conscious of being. Your Faith Is Your Fortune by Neville Goddard


Today there is so much said about Masters, Elder Brothers, Adepts and initiates that numberless truth seekers are being constantly misled by seeking these false lights. There are no Ascended Masters. Banish this superstition. The power to ascend is within yourself; it is your consciousness. NEVILLE

The Silence is a medium by which man comes in a closer touch with the Infinite.



God's will for you is only good and nothing can withhold your good from you.

An inspiring verse from the Book of Revelation reminds you that nothing and no one keeps your good from you.  "Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut."

Jesus said, "It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom."

The truth that the Master taught and demonstrated blesses you, for it reassures you that no one can withhold your good.  The power to attract your good and the power to sustain your good is within you.  All good that comes to you comes by right of spirituality consciousness.

God did not create a world of loss, lack, or limitation.  Those things are humankind's invention.  God's world is prosperous and perpetually new.  As you keep your faith centered in God's truth, as you know that you live in a spiritual world of perfect ideas, negation has no power over you.  You see the good in all persons and situations and you discover that the bounty of God is omnipresent.

Even when Jesus asked a person who was requesting prayer, “Do you believe?” it is translated closer in today's language to, “Can you accept?”
