all as well
Only God’s orderly and lawful Universe exists. All apparent chance or accident is not actually so. We are always safe and never alone. We should act like the children of God that we are. Rejoice!

the way
We struggle to figure it all out. The answer is right in front of us. The answer, is us. We never ever find it because we’re always looking out there. If we but give it a break, stop, pause, and become still. The answer, the way, is then, apparent.
here, everywhere, love
The ever-present substance of reality, this, that, here and there, is God. Never are we not with God. Because we’re lost in our egoic-thought-structure, we’re disconnected from this now-present Truth. ‘There is nothing be feared’.

all here, now
We don’t lack a thing. We think we’re missing something, a most valuable possession. And we go around looking for it endlessly. In other people, and in innumerable things. And we’re still not satisfied. We never will be, until we decide to look where we’ve never thought of looking. Right where we are, and within. All we ever need, we already are. We don’t experience it because we never pay attention to self. We don’t lack a thing.

real forgiveness
Someone hurts us in some manner. We then might forgive them for what they’ve done to us. That’s not real forgiveness according to A Course in Miracles. That’s because by forgiving someone we’re saying that there’s something to forgive. A Course in Miracles informs us that we’re dreaming our current ‘reality’. And if that’s the case then the ‘sin’ committed by our brother-in-dream never actually happened. Recognizing that it never occurred is true forgiveness.
[series] Soul stirring quotes from A Course in Miracles
Everyone wants to know where God is. And how to contact her. Some say he’s right here and is ‘closer than your own breath’. What nonsense is this? If she’s right here and ‘closer than our own breath’ then how come we can’t put a finger on that experience?
I’ve wrestled with this dilemma and have found an answer. Our beingness, our very presence, the awareness that we are, which looks out and which experiences all experience, is what is us. This essence is what this quote refers to. This essence is also God expressing itself as us, as this awareness which is our core identity.
dreamer
We are the dreamer of this dream. But we’ve forgotten that we’re dreaming. Waking up, at first, is simply entertaining the concept that we could be dreaming. And then stepping back to just watch the dream that we’re weaving. Time to wake up!
