Love Walks With Me

 


Being in the world and perceiving it, myself and all others with compassion, love and innocence (as God, our Creator does) certainly changes my experience from fear to feeling safe, at peace and joyful.

This IS the practice that will bring God into the world through each of us as we choose this path.  We are truly innocent.  We are mistaken about who we truly are.

Blessings!

"Therefore seek not to change the world, but will to change your mind about the world."


 

“For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he.”   Prov. 23:7

"[Man] thinks in secret, and it comes to pass:  environment is but his looking-glass." James Allen (1902)

It has been through my study of A Course in Miracles that I became aware of this truth, that the projection of what is in my mind (my beliefs) is the cause of the world I perceive.  I spent almost 20 years in a religious community and studied the Bible, and yet don’t recall this important teaching. I, as most of us, believed that I was at the effect of the world.  As a result, I felt the need to control the world and others, feeling victimized by what was happening “to me.”

Maybe I just wasn't ready to understand this truth. But I am ready now. I am ready to be at peace, I am ready to see a different world, I am ready to see myself as I truly am, as God created me, and to see others in this light. I am ready to put this into practice now.  As I change my mind, the world I experience changes.  Very empowering!!!
