"I am one Self, united with my Creator."

 

Interpreted by Roberta Gallop

 

Daily Welcome:  Greetings, it is so nice to have you guys on the journey with me, I know I am slow with my blog entries, it's not cause I am lazy, or am not motivated. Believe it or not I write the message when I feel like it is time to deliver it. I used to beat myself up about it, but I now realize it's all by design, that the messages come through when they most need to. With chuckles, smiles and ferris wheels let's do our big group hug and saddle up for another meander down this road less traveled. I love you guys and enjoy our time together.

 

 

Prayer: Blessed Wholly Spirit, please guide me and help me to stay motivated and faithful when the road feels so rocky and I fear I have lost my way. Please grant me your strength and focus to know what I am, and to recognize the game for what it is. When I say what's the use, please remind me that what I am is seeing a distorted version of the truth and let me see the light in all things. Thank you for teaching me and helping me to see this differently. Love Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson: - "I am one Self, united with my Creator."  - This lesson really brings home the oneness of it all. I have believed deeply ever since I had my "Waking" dream and literally saw myself as a thought in the Mind of God. It was around 2 am and my body's eyes opened, and with my 3^rd eye I was able to see the Son of God as a thought in God's mind. The body was able to walk around, but internally I was focused on the oneness of Christ Consciousness. The thing that stood out to me was how quiet and peaceful it was, there was no thinking about this, that, or the other thing, just the simplicity of consciousness. The awareness of that moment still stays with me, and I do feel that unity with all, within God. A few hours after I had gone back to sleep, I was awakened to start my day, I was in a much different space. It was game on, getting up taking care of my bodily needs, thinking about everything. People, places, and things became the order of the day. But the experience has left me with the sense I am never alone, and very aware of the oneness with God.

 

 

Thinking it Over: I have noticed as I continue in the awakening process that sometimes there just doesn't seem to be words for what I am trying to express, which makes sense because anything to do with oneness hiding under the illusion of separateness loses a lot in translation. So basically, we are one, but we have this built in distorter when we come below the veil that instantly fractures our perception like a disco ball, but not really. So, it's about reaching past the bendy carnival mirror stuff to the truth. How many fingers am I holding up? What is your distortion? What is your reality?

 

 

Tips & Tricks: Biggest tip for today is, go with the flow. I have found that the more I can stay in a place of forgiveness and acceptance the more I feel that all important faith, that lets me know that God is in the results department and I am in the efforts department and all I really need to do is take a chill pill and let the Universe unfold exactly as it is designed to. The more I try and run the show, the more I realize I can't, and the more I get mad at myself because I can't, the more I go into a nasty spiral of littleness that doesn't help anything and usually ends in me beating myself up to the point where a headache is imminent. So. through meditation, remembering to breathe, and the acceptance that God is in His Heaven and all's right with the world goes a long way. Trust, believe, and keep on keepin on.

 

Upon Closing: Thank you for joining me on another phase of our journey together, I find this lessons crucial, but many times it is illusory and escapes me. Let's head on over to the church social and have some yummy apple pie. Have an awesome time my blessed friends and know we are not alone. Love & Light, Riki🌈

Workbook Lesson 94

 

"I am as God created me."

 

Interpreted by Roberta Gallop

 

Daily Welcome:  Hail my Beloved Travel Buddies, it is so wonderful to know I am not alone in this, that there are other seekers like myself and that we all grow together because we are of one mind. It makes it fun to move on down the road with you guys, continuing to learn, question and expand.  So, time for that wonderous big group hug as we make a mad dash for the path to enlightenment.

 

 

Prayer: My loving Father, please help me to keep my focus regardless how stupid and chaotic it gets below the veil. Please help me to know the truth and to accept that I am as you have made me, especially when the thoughts in my mind tell me otherwise. Please help me to see that it is possible to still be experiencing the role you would have me play and be awakened to the Christ Consciousness of which I am. May your Wholly Spirit guide me every step of the way and to realize it is all in your plan. Thank you for teaching us, Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson:  "I am as God created me." – For me this is one of those subtle little lessons that has spoken volumes to me. I have learned over the years to become a real expert at self-condemnation, beating and putting myself down for everything, believing myself to be "lower than whale shit". So, to stumble on (not by accident) this lesson was a miracle all in itself. I have always believed in God, in some way shape or form and most of my life have truly thought, I had let God down. I have never really been sure how or why, I just knew that I had screwed up a lot and God was putting up with me the best He could. So, to realize God made me this way, that there is nothing wrong with me, and I am exactly as designed, has been a big load off my heart and mind. I had been taught to look at things in a screwy way, but it didn't mean I was screwy, just the thinking was.

 

 

Thinking it Over: This lesson though simple has taken years to get in there, to understand that I have done nothing wrong, and never have and the more I just release, forgive, and accept that as truth, the more I actually see it and believe it. I am amazed how strong the old programming runs through my head though. There are some nights I wake up at 2 or 3 in the morning with such fear and self-hate running through me that I feel lost and confused, and sometimes can't even feel God. But as I relax and ask the Wholly Spirit to help me see things differently, I do feel the peace of God and am comforted. How do you get to the other side of fear and judgement?

 

 

Tips & Tricks: When I think about another tidbit that has served me well, the idea of "getting still" comes to mind. I find that is much as I can just remember that I am in unreality and that it is all illusion, and then go that extra mile to start thinking about the "Christ Consciousness" that I truly am, the judgements I have made on myself start going away and I begin to remember the truth of that I am exactly as I am supposed to be, because God made me this way. Sometimes I will tell myself that I am confused and I don't really know what is going on, but God does and it truly is OK.

 

Upon Closing: Another awesome lesson, one of those touchy feel good ones. It allways leaves me refreshed and happy to be a student of The Course. You guys are definitely my cherry on top, cause we have such exciting adventures and get to play like the little kids we are. The best thing about being as God made me is I can't screw it up, even though I think I can. So, I think I wanna do a little skinny dippen in the creek and just let it all hang out. Last one in is last month's meatloaf. Remember to be gentle, rest well, and enjoy the process.

 Love & Light, Riki 🌈

Workbook Lesson 93

 

"Light and joy and peace abide in me."

 

Interpreted by Roberta Gallop

 

Daily Welcome:  Hi, my study buddies, it is so wonderful to have you in my life, and to know that I get to play with the big kids and enjoy stuff as it is meant to be, and not the hell my distorted thoughts have turned it into. A Course in Miracles is such a pretty name that carries with it a great promise, and I do feel it is exactly what its name says, because I am growing in Spirit and as I do it is so nice to have others to share it with. So, let's have that big group hug I've been waiting for and once again, move on down the road in our comfy fuzzy slippers.

 

 

Prayer: Blessed Father, Sometimes I feel like I got this, and I take off down the hill running, and other times, I just feel so lost and confused, please guide me through the confusion and help me to see the light, peace, and joy that I really am. I so want to remember who I am and also to honor you in every step of this process and this awesome adventure you have gone on with me. I love you Father, please help me to grow in that love. Thank you for helping me, thank you for teaching me. Allways.

 

 

Workbook Lesson:  "Light and joy and peace abide in me."  -  This is one of my favorite lessons because it is so gentle and loving and it reminds me what truly does run the show, not bones and blood and flesh, or diplomas or wealth. Sometimes, I clearly and easily believe this, and other times I am so focused on the muck and mire of my illusions that I can't see past much. It's kinda funny, because Light, Joy and Peace certainly abide in me, it just has more to do with where my focus is whether I am in touch with it or not. I think it's important to point out this lesson is not stating that it may, abide in me, or that once a year on my birthday it abides in me, but that it abides in me, allways, period. No debate on who, where when or why, or if it should or shouldn't, because it simply is. Because it IS who I am, it is what I am made of. I also like to remember especially in the Course, when it talks about me, it is talking about the collective, not just I have it and you don't, because I am special and you aren't, or that God loves me best.

 

 

Thinking it Over:   Since I am made of Light, and joy and peace, it has really emphasized the need to find those places where I am resistant to releasing the distorted facts that I have based the identity of my little self on and forgiving and forgetting and enjoying the not thinking part. Cause when I am not caught up in the who I think I am, and just allow the true Me as Christ the Son of God to shine through that is when I am in touch with the Light, and joy and peace, which is my birthright. What resistances are preventing you from knowing your birthright, your true identity as the Son of God?

 

-        

Tips & Tricks: I feel like I have been pushing the ACIM river for so long, it is an absolute pleasure to not fight or assume, or expect things to go a certain way, but just to go with the flow, not define and allow the mind ordering to take me where it does. It's kinda funny, you know when people say, "I lost my mind", As I get more involved with this process, I really do feel like I have literally lost my mind, or a good portion of it. Inside where my head used to be like Grand Central Station, it is now more like a beach in Tahiti. So, this mind ordering stuff works, especially when I just kick back and let it happen.

 

Upon Closing:  This was a lovely little walk down Spirit Path today, and it felt so good to have company. There is some cold apple cider down by the creek, and I made some yummy biscuits last night. Let's just kick back for a bit and contemplate our inner nature of light, joy and peace. Have a blessed and enjoyable day and a restful night. Love & Light, Riki 🌈
