REVIEW II
Introduction
We are now ready for another review. We will begin where our last review left off, and cover two ideas each day. The earlier part of each day will be devoted to one of these ideas, and the latter part of the day to the other. We will have one longer exercise period, and...
Game night today!! I started a boardgaming group in town but have yet to have anyone show up. There's hope tonight though :) I got a couple of hopefuls saying they plan to come.
I was going to mention D&D and see if anyone was interested. But given the number of, what I dub, "Ultra-religiosos"...
Let me recognize my problems have been solved.
If you are willing to recognize your problems, you will recognize that you have no problems. Your one central problem has been answered, and you have no other. Therefore, you must be at peace. Salvation thus depends on recognizing this one...
Let me recognize the problem so it can be solved.
A problem cannot be solved if you do not know what it is. Even if it is really solved already you will still have the problem, because you will not recognize that it has been solved. This is the situation of the world. The problem of...
You {I} have tried to exercise patience for certain things with which you {I} have to cope. A feeling of frustration exists, due to the way some things have turned out and the way some did not. Harvest time is a blessing event that you {I} schedule ahead of time. Your {my} miracle blessing...
Let miracles replace all grievances.
Perhaps it is not yet quite clear to you that each decision that you make is one between a grievance and a miracle. Each grievance stands like a dark shield of hate before the miracle it would conceal. And as you raise it up before your eyes, you will not...
Brilliant
The soft murmur of television voices comes from downstairs. In bed on my back, covers up to my neck, I stare up at the ceiling.
The soft light from my 3 way bulb covers everything with an odd orange color.
How did I get here?
Did I know this was coming?
What will I make of this life...
Are you an unbeliever?
Do you miss the quiet study and reflection church had to offer?
But don't miss the religion?
Not for everyone, but check out Sunday Focus... a work in progress. Suggestions/comments welcome.
Sunday Focus: weekly alternative to church
So the other night I had, what could best be called, dreams about faith. I found it rather interesting.
I saw several people from my high school days, who I knew from my church. I don't frequently think of them, so it was interesting to see them in my dream.
They invited me to a large event...
Agnostic/Atheist alternative to Church

I am entitled to miracles.
You are entitled to miracles because of what you are. You will receive miracles because of what God is. And you will offer miracles because you are one with God. Again, how simple is salvation! It is merely a statement of your true Identity. It is this that we will...
I am under no laws but God's.
We have observed before how many senseless things have seemed to you to be salvation. Each has imprisoned you with laws as senseless as itself. You are not bound by them. Yet to understand that this is so, you must first realize salvation lies not there. While you...
The light has come.
The light has come. You are healed and you can heal. The light has come. You are saved and you can save. You are at peace, and you bring peace with you wherever you go. Darkness and turmoil and death have disappeared. The light has come.
Today we celebrate the happy ending...
I'm feeling so grateful for all the things I have and this feeling of gratefulness seem to make me feel that God is drawing me closer to him (yeah!)
Well, I'm going to relax and maybe make one of my coffee creations. Maybe a PB & J sandwich too :)

I was standing outside
There was a clear sky
I heard a gentle rain and it put the pain aside
And lifted my spirit high
:)
The birds sang boldly
I looked up and saw
Rain that felt so heavenly
As it fell down the cold feeling started to thaw
:clap:
My heart sensed
A holy presence...
Are you an unbeliever? :wave:

There is no will but God's. I share it with Him.
My conflicts about _____ cannot be real.
There is no will but God's.
The idea for today can be regarded as the central thought toward which all our exercises are directed. God's is the only Will. When you have recognized this, you have recognized that your will is His. The belief that conflict is possible has gone. Peace has replaced...
I will there be light.
Today we are considering the will you share with God. This is not the same as the ego's idle wishes, out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The will you share with God has all the power of creation in it. The ego's idle wishes are unshared, and therefore have no...
Holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation.
While we have recognized that the ego's plan for salvation is the opposite of God's, we have not yet emphasized that it is an active attack on His plan, and a deliberate attempt to destroy it. In the attack, God is assigned the...
