June 3rd, 2014 Lesson 78
Let miracles replace all grievances.
- Intention: To see the Children of God, the truth and the light that my grievances hide from me.
- Practice: Two 15-minute sessions with eyes closed. In addition, frequent shorter (2-minute) applications of today's idea.
- Application: Long sessions -- With eyes closed, begin each session by selecting one person we have used as target for our grievances, then lay those grievances aside and look at that person. You know the one to choose; their name has crossed your mind already. That is the one of whom we ask to see as a Child of God. Look past the grievances you have held against this one and see hidden there the truth and the light that lies hidden in everyone, and in you. That one, like you, is a Child of God. Let him be savior unto you today and take the holy role assigned to him in God's plan for salvation.
See that chosen one in his role as our savior. First think of him as you now consider him with his faults, the difficulties you have had with him, the pain he caused, his good and bad points, his mistakes and his "sins." Then ask God, Who knows the true reality of all His Children, to let us see this chosen one in a different way, and see our savior in the light of true forgiveness, given unto us. We ask, in God's holy Name:
Let me behold my savior in this one You have appointed as the one for me to ask to led me to the holy light in which he stands, that I may join with him.
With eyes closed, think of the chosen one who grieved you, and let your mind be shown the light in him beyond your grievances. Success is yours, for in him as in you, is the same light of truth, placed there by God. See this light in the chosen one and in everyone, and let no dark grievances obscure your sight.
- Application: Short sessions -- Remember frequently throughout the day to allow each one we think of or meet to serve as our savior by looking past our grievances to the light in him and forgiving our own shortcomings, be the light of truth for ourselves as well. Silently say to everyone we think of or meet:Let miracles replace all grievances.
Insights/comments:
- To see the light of truth in everyone and everything is to be always in the light of truth, to be enlightened. Conversely, to see the dark clouds of grievances anywhere is to see illusions, the reflections of our ego, our insane desire to have things be other than they are, instead of appreciating the gift God gives us in each moment as our present--the very thing He knows we need for our salvation.
- We need but remember that no other plan for our salvation will work for there are no laws but God's, and God's law offers us miracles to replace the petty grievances we hold against anyone or anything. Let them go and see in their place the light of truth.
Forgive all grievances and see the light. Be the light of the world.
