Sat's Grats...The forgiven World...(I was gone a week)
by
I am grateful to be home from that Branson, MO trip. Lordy! We laughed! I wonder how many days it will take to rest up from laughing so much.
Grateful to be home. There is no place like home. Also, grateful to be so healthy. Flu shots were discussed more than once. When asked when and where I’d be getting mine…I admitted that I’d never had one and most likely would never be getting one.
This is one of those areas that Abe refers to with “The Law of Attraction.” If one holds in mind they need to prepare to keep from getting the flu, then there is a fear being built up…and what the mind holds prevails…setting up a so-called default in the mind. It would take "The Law of Deliberate Creation” (or Andy) to remove this fear from the mind (or my PC) and then remain flu-free. I am grateful that I have been flu-free.
I am grateful to open the course to Chap 17, to segment II. “The Forgiven World.”
{{{Can I just imagine how beautiful those I forgive will look to me? In no fantasy have I ever seen anything so lovely. Nothing I see here, sleeping or waking, comes near to such loveliness. And nothing will I value like unto this, nor hold so dear. Nothing that I remember that made my heart sing with joy has ever brought me even a little part of the happiness this sight will bring me. For I will see the Son of God. I will behold the beauty the Holy Spirit loves to look upon, and which He thanks the Father for. He was created to see this for me, until I learned to see it for myself. And all His teaching leads to seeing it and giving thanks with Him.
This loveliness is not a fantasy. It is the real world, bright and clean and new, with everything sparkling under the open sun.
Nothing is hidden here, for everything has been forgiven and there are no fantasies to hide the truth. }}}
Me? It is amazing how true this segment can be. I used to carry Grievances and Grudges (G&Gs) against a woman named Bonnie, who, BTW, put together the Branson trip. My G&Gs lasted 3-5 years. Both Holy Spirit and I knew it was my desire to get past G&Gs, and one day “we” did!
I am grateful that it is no longer possible to see any G&Gs in Bonnie’s great being generous heart. Amazing…? I could never in my life ever imagined how beautiful Bonnie would look to me! And all the generous and graciousness she can carry in one great big heart. No, I do not seek her out to be my best friend, she is too busy doing what she does best. I am so grateful that I am past the G&Gs…is what I am maintaining! Amazing? rell
