Even if I have never met you, you still make me super happy because I know what’s in your heart. I know your innocence and perfection. I know your holiness and your creative abilities as a child of God.

Most of you know that I love A Course in Miracles very much! It has transformed my life in every department – in health, relationships, even with money – it got me out of poverty thinking – and it has brought me to more peace and joy than I could have ever imagined possible.

And this experience is available to everyone who wants it because A Course in Miracles is a systematic simple way to be happy. It works for everyone (without exception) who does what it says. It doesn’t matter how sick or sad or depressed you are, if you do what it says, you will see your life transformed.

Herein lies THE CLUE to all my difficulties for so many years. I wasn’t doing what the book said to do. I was just reading and wishing my life would change. I was begging and pleading for a miracle, but I was unwilling to take the simple steps I was asked to take. I was still being irritated by some people, some of the time (or a lot of the time!)

When I made a decision to really LIVE A Course in Miracles and take the steps and I chose to love, my life turned around completely.

And this is what I want for everyone. This is what I want for you. I want you to experience a life of joy and abundance, knowing yourself as healed and whole and complete.

All you have to do is make a decision that you are ready to get off the conflict train.

Are you ready to get off the train?

Then pick up A Course in Miracles and choose to be a beginner. That’s what I did. After 20-something years with A Course in Miracles (and still being in conflict with everyone and everything, mostly with myself), I realized that I didn’t know the book at ALL – even though I could quote every sentence by heart – I saw that I needed to start with a clean slate as if I had never seen A Course in Miracles before. I had to look at with new eyes, and that’s what I did.

I said: I don’t know this book at all, but I am willing to look at it and do what it says.

And that was my firm beginning – and things began to change!

If this sound like something you’re interested in – a new life – I invite you to sign up for the 40-Day Program which starts May 1st – which is tomorrow! I sent the first message and video out tonight – Thursday April 30th – at 10pm EST. Then I send out a message and video every night at 10pm EST for the next 40 days.

It’s totally free.

ONE MORE THING: This morning I read the most exciting idea in A Course in Miracles: that I am responsible for how you see yourself!

Not only am I responsible for what I see and the feelings that I experience but I am also responsible for how everyone in the whole world sees themselves!

I love that. I got very happy when I read it.

Here is what is says: “The power to heal the Son of God (everyone you see, meet & think of) is given you because he must be one with you. You are responsible for how he sees himself.” ACIM, Chapter 21, Reason vs. Madness.

This is the work of the savior. This is how healing is accomplished!

That I see you as whole and complete and perfect, and when I meet you I want to make sure that you see yourself that way too, through my own perfect Christ vision, which is given to each and everyone of us as God’s gift.

I would love to see you in the 40-Day. We have a Facebook group (which is not required), but if you are on Facebook, it’s quite a party in there and you’re invited to join us.

I love the workbook lessons of A Course in Miracles. I’ve done them several times already over the years, and I’m doing them again this year in 2015. I started on January 1, 2015 and I’m loving it.

I do an audio commentary every day called Guide to 365, for anyone who wants to make the one-year commitment to start and FINISH all 365 workbook lessons. You can find out more about Guide to 365 and sign up by clicking this link: https://www.teachersofgod.org/acim-workbook-lessons

Here is Lesson 119: Truth will correct all errors in my mind.

I am mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any way. I am God’s Son, whose Self rests safely in the Mind of God.

To give and receive are one in truth.

I will forgive all things today that I may learn how to accept the truth in me, and come to recognize my sinlessness.

I love having the power to change my mind in every circumstance. If someone says something to me that is hurtful, or if a situation arises that makes me afraid … I remember: THERE IS ANOTHER WAY OF LOOKING AT THIS.

“I am mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any way.”

Nothing can affect me except my own thoughts.

You are always looking at your own thoughts, projected outward. All those people you see? They are not there. They are ideas that you hold in your own mind about yourself and the world.

Like looking in a mirror.

So instead of being afraid (or cautious) of people, places and things, you now say: BRING IT ON.

It’s fun to pull up crap from your mind and not react to it. It’s a happy game. You dive in head first. You go where it’s scary.

Have the courage to say your desire out loud. Let your private ideas be made public. Live with integrity and let your words match your actions and thoughts. All hell will break loose when you finally stand up and say “this is what I really want. I refuse to accept limitation.” Figures will come out of the woodwork to stop you and bring you down, which is just hidden crap in your mind that you’ve kept buried for years and years.

Don’t be afraid of people saying things to you.

Keep following Jesus.

Where before it was all nice-nice while you were the perfect wife, student, employee, husband, son, daughter, citizen … when you begin to break out of the role that you have made for yourself to keep everything in balance, you will encounter resistance.

If you don’t resist it or react to it, it disappears.

Because there is nothing outside of you.

So let everything rise to the surface. Don’t be afraid when someone is telling you you’re doing it wrong, or that you’re a failure. Don’t be concerned if people are disappointed in you. You can’t please everyone so don’t even bother – it’s a waste of time.

Instead allow truth to correct all errors in your mind.

“I will forgive all things today, that I may learn how to accept the truth in me, and to come to recognize my sinlessness.”

I will forgive all things today.

That’s a good practical thing to do.

I will recognize my sinlessness today.

Truth will correct all errors in my mind.

Two weeks ago in our Course in Miracles Friday morning group, I gave a one-hour talk about how I identified an unconscious state of mind – frustration, feeling powerless and helpless – that has been running the show in my life – and what I did about it.

Also just a happy reminder:

HAPPY EASTER.

Jesus speaks of his resurrection.

In the book “Absence from Felicity,” Ken Wapnick includes a special message from Jesus to Helen about the resurrection. It came because Helen asked Ken if he believed in the physical resurrection of Jesus. Ken suggested she, “ask the ‘Boss’ himself.” Here’s the message she received:

“My body disappeared because I had no illusion about it. The last one had gone. It was laid in the tomb, but there was nothing left to bury. It did not disintegrate because the unreal cannot die. It merely became what it always was. And that is what “rolling the stone away” means. The body disappears, and no longer hides what lies beyond. It merely ceases to interfere with vision. To roll the stone away is to see beyond the tomb, beyond death, and to understand the body’s nothingness. What is understood as nothing must disappear.

“I did assume a human form with human attributes afterwards, to speak to those who were to prove the body’s worthlessness to the world. This has been much misunderstood. I came to tell them that death is illusion, and the mind that made the body can make another since form itself is an illusion. They did not understand. But now I talk to you and give you the same message. The death of an illusion means nothing. It disappears when you awaken and decide to dream no more. And you still do have the power to make this decision as I did.

“God holds out His hand to His Son to help him rise and return to Him. I can help because the world is illusion, and I have overcome the world. Look past the tomb, the body, the illusion. Have faith in nothing but the spirit and the guidance God gives you. He could not have created the body because it is a limit. He must have created the spirit because it is immortal. Can those who are created like Him be limited? The body is the symbol of the world. Leave it behind. It cannot enter Heaven. But I can take you there any time that you choose. Together we can watch the world disappear and its symbol vanish as it does so. And then, and then — I cannot speak of that.

“A body can not stay without illusion and the last one to be overcome is death. This is the message of the crucifixion; There is no order of difficulties in miracles. This is the message of the resurrection: Illusions are illusions. Truth is true. Illusions vanish. Only truth remains.

“These lessons needed to be taught but once, for when the stone of death is rolled away, what can be seen but an empty tomb? And that is what you see who follow me into the sunlight and away from death, past all illusions, on to Heaven’s gate, where God will come Himself to take you home. – Jesus Christ
