Developing Trust

by Rev. Larry Glenz, O.M.C.

Everything that you see in the world challenges your trust in turning all your decisions over to Inner Guidance. We have great resistance to trusting and we need to recognize this before we can meet the all-important challenge. Every time we feel emotions that are in the category of “fear” thoughts, we can be certain we have dropped the hand of our Higher Power. There is someone or something that we haven’t forgiven.

What Is Forgiveness?

by Rev. Myron Jones, O.M.C.

I’ve been teaching a series of lessons on forgiveness on ACIM Gather. The last one I did was from the Workbook, “What is Forgiveness?” This section has helped me understand the Course’s definition of the word forgiveness, but more importantly, it has helped me practice forgiveness.

So how does the Course define forgiveness? It begins by telling us that forgiveness recognizes what you thought your brother did to you has not occurred. It has taken me a long time to accept this. At first it was completely unacceptable to me. Slowly over time as my willingness grew, I began to embrace it as my salvation.

Finding a Place Within Me to Receive God’s Grace

by Rev. Sharyn Zenz, O.M.C.

One of the gifts from God is His grace. He wants us to receive His grace so much and He is so very patient, just waiting for us to make a place for it within us. It is our job to weed out from within ourselves all the guilt, dishonesty, unworthiness, judgment, limitation, the need for suffering. The list goes on and on.

When we really get to the “root” and weed those things out of us, we make room for grace, God’s Love, kindness to ourselves and others, non-judgment, joining with others at the altar of God.

A Minister’s Journey

by Rev. Liz Swearsky, O.M.C.

I was recently ordained as a Pathways of Light minister. I wanted to share the highlight of my experience, the final day of the teleconference in which we were ordained, but let me begin by saying that I was a reluctant student. 

One day, about 18 months ago, I was led to the Pathways of Light website, as I was interested in learning about their courses.  I have been a long time student of A Course in Miracles, but was thinking that it was time to expand. I thought that I would leisurely take a course and if felt so moved, to possibly finish my studies to become an ordained minister by my 50th birthday in 3 years.

The Holy Purpose of the Body

by Rev. Mary Gerard Lenihan, O.M.C.

How is the body seen through the ego’s eyes?

I see my body as the face of sin and death. I see my body as a home for parasitic thoughts of death and attack, robbing me of my sustenance. I see a fleshly casing and covering that is filled with sin, death and disease. My body is afraid of death, for this will be the demise of me. I will be wiped from existence as my body sickens and retreats into dust; for the dust too will vanish and there will be nothing left of me — the body telling me that I have never existed. My greatest fear comes upon me at death — the fear that I am not real. And if I am not real, then there must not be a God.

Understanding Forgiveness

by Rev. Mary Beth Ellis, O.M.C.

Forgiveness is probably the most important spiritual lesson for many reasons, one of which is that our lives depend on it.

To truly forgive we need to understand the why’s and how’s of how it works. As with any fix-it project, the most important factor, after the decision to repair something, is to use the right tools. Without the proper tools, all the determination in the world usually results in little change. We are fortunate to have these tools today. I wish I’d had them at 16. I wish I’d had them at 30 when I was blaming the world for my problems. I wish I’d used them yesterday when I felt slighted by one of God’s children, and condemned him in my mind.
