Merry Christmas to you from me and our entire team at the Teachers of God Foundation.
You are a gift to the world and to us.
We love you.
It’s me, Lisa Natoli.
It’s two days before Christmas and the peace of God is shining in you now.
Christmas is meant to be a time of celebration, peace and joy but often it’s a time when people feel overwhelmed, depressed, filled with guilt about not being able to get it all done. It often brings up a lot of old family issues. Plus it’s dark and cold.
I wanted to give you a gift that can change your whole mood this holiday season and for the rest of your life.
I hope you like it!
It’s morning and I’m still in bed (“the children were nestled, all snug in their bed”) and I just had coffee with Jesus – my daily morning routine – and I was sitting here thinking: “I want to give all my friends the best gift ever.”
I wanted it to be a REAL gift, not just nice sounding words. I wanted it to be something you could use, something of value, something that would bring you joy.
And I reached over for A Course in Miracles, opened it up and it landed on Workbook Lesson 188: The peace of God is shining in me now.
And instantly, I knew: THIS IS IT!!!
This is the gift I want to give you this Christmas.
The gift of Christ vision, where you see only love. The gift of healing, where you know how to use the Power and Light of God that has been given to you to heal all things.
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
The peace of God is a gift you already have – given to you by God.
MY GIFT to you is to bring it back into your awareness so you can start using it.
I love you.
Most people have no idea that there is a light in them which can literally heal anything. This light removes all fear, darkness, addiction, sorrow, sickness and pain. FOR REAL.
But like any gift, you have to use it. You have to know about it. You have to plug it in, play with it, test it out.
Same with the light that is in you. It’s THERE as a huge beautiful gift for you but if you don’t take it out of the box and use it, it’s useless. It literally does nothing, even though it has the power to heal every aspect of your life.
If you know me as a teacher, you know that my whole approach is: Try it out. Experiment with this idea. Take it for a test-run in your life and then you will see for yourself that it works.
I’m very big on people seeing things for themselves, with their own eyes, as a direct experience.
You’ll know that what I am saying is true when you see all your problems disappear one by one.
You’ll know for yourself that this light really DOES heal all things when you see pain and sickness dissolve from your experience.
You’ll know it when you begin to feel happy.
So today, I give you a gift and I ask you to take it out of the box and use it.
Simply know that the peace of God is shining in you now. It’s there SHINING without you doing anything, but while you were focused on your problems and grievances and fear, you didn’t know it was there.
This light has always been in you – sitting dormant – and today you are going to recognize it and get it flowing.
YOU WILL BE AMAZED BY WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU BECOME AWARE OF THIS LIGHT AND BEGIN TO DELIBERATELY EXTEND IT.
It’s a simple practice.
If you are ready for healing and miracles in your life, please scroll down to the Workbook Lesson – READ IT AND THEN DO WHAT IT SAYS.
Like any gift, there are instructions.
I have posted them below.
Please don’t just read though the lesson. Know that it’s true. Acknowledge the light in you and send it out from your heart around the world.
When it says “close your eyes” please close your eyes. See this light. Connect with it. It’s yours to use and to give, and it will heal you completely.
This light knows what to do. It immediately will begin to remove all fear and doubt from your mind. You will start to feel a happy light-heartedness when you send love and peace to others, from your heart.
Give yourself 30 minutes to an hour today to sit quietly and feel this light, and then extend it from your heart around the world.
This works.
Merry Christmas.
BONUS GIFT THAT GOT FORGOTTEN IN THE CLOSET UNTIL AFTER ALL THE GIFTS ARE UNWRAPPED:
If you want to see your life dramatically transform, imagine what will happen if you were to consistently remember this light on a daily basis and you made a commitment to not waver back into old thought patterns and negativity. IMAGINE THAT. Imagine if you were to make a commitment to live in love for 40 days and allow fear to come up into your awareness so you can release it. If this sounds like something you want to do, make sure to sign up for the 40-Day Program which begins on January 1, 2016. It’s totally free. Click here to sign up: https://www.teachersofgod.org/40day
All new videos and new messages, and I haven’t done them yet so it’s a brand new program which I am super excited about.
Join me in healing.
Love,
Lisa
PS: If you have a friend or family member who is suffering or struggling, please share this message with them. And please let them know about the 40-day Program which begins on January 1st (just a week away) It may be exactly what they need right now.
YOUR GIFT
Follow these instructions and be healed.
Lesson 188
The peace of God is shining in me now.
Why wait for Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a change at all. Light is not of the world, yet you who bear the light in you are alien here as well. The light came with you from your native home, and stayed with you because it is your own. It is the only thing you bring with you from Him Who is your Source. It shines in you because it lights your home, and leads you back to where it came from and you are at home.
This light can not be lost. Why wait to find it in the future, or believe it has been lost already, or was never there? It can so easily be looked upon that arguments which prove it is not there become ridiculous. Who can deny the presence of what he beholds in him? It is not difficult to look within, for there all vision starts. There is no sight, be it of dreams or from a truer Source, that is not but the shadow of the seen through inward vision. There perception starts, and there it ends. It has no source but this.
The peace of God is shining in you now, and from your heart extends around the world. It pauses to caress each living thing, and leaves a blessing with it that remains forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all thoughts of the ephemeral and valueless. It brings renewal to all tired hearts, and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give, and you who have received.
The shining in your mind reminds the world of what it has forgotten, and the world restores the memory to you as well. From you salvation radiates with gifts beyond all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does God Himself give thanks. And in His blessing does the light in you shine brighter, adding to the gifts you have to offer to the world.
The peace of God can never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must give it. And the means for giving it are in his understanding. He forgives because he recognized the truth in him. The peace of God is shining in you now, and in all living things. In quietness is it acknowledged universally. For what your inward vision looks upon is your perception of the universe.
Sit quietly and close your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world, and let your thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself.
These thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their home. And they point surely to their Source, Where God the Father and the Son are One. God’s peace is shining on them, but they must remain with you as well, for they were born within your mind, as yours was born in God’s. They lead you back to peace, from where they came but to remind you how you must return.
They heed your Father’s Voice when you refuse to listen. And they urge you gently to accept His Word for what you are, instead of fantasies and shadows. They remind you that you are the co-creator of all things that live. For as the peace of God is shining in you, it must shine on them.
We practice coming nearer to the light in us today. We take our wandering thoughts, and gently bring them back to where they fall in line with all the thoughts we share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the light within our minds direct them to come home. We have betrayed them, ordering that they depart from us. But now we call them back, and wash them clean of strange desires and disordered wishes. We restore to them the holiness of their inheritance.
Thus are our minds restored with them, and we acknowledge that the peace of God still shines in us, and from us to all living things that share our life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the world from what we thought it did to us. For it is we who make the world as we would have it. Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid of sin and open to salvation. And we lay our saving blessing on it, as we say:
The peace of God is shining in me now.
Let all things shine upon me in that peace,
And let me bless them with the light in me.
Thank you for the gift of Light, Lisa! The best gift ever! And so are you.
there is One light in this world. and it is You the Son/Sun born again on this day
Thank you Lisa for your beautiful gift. It was just what I needed this morning. Blessings to you and Bill for a wonderful Christmas
Thank you for sharing, I am remembering my Light this morning and it feels so comforting and peaceful. Merry Christmas everyone xoxo
Thank you Lisa! I am looking forward to New Years and doing the 40 day program with you. I have loved your radio shows.
Really appreciate your light!
What a WONDERFUL GIFT! I literally could FEEL the excitement and Joy coming from you Lisa as I read your beautiful gift this morning! I LOVE IT! TODAY IS GOING TO BE THE BEST DAY EVER!
I love you!
Laurel
Thank you Lisa for this most wonderful Christmas gift. I am planning to open it and work with it when I come home from doing a class with people who are in recovery. In the meantime, I will just close my eyes and see the Light in me and extend it outward. I look forward to starting the 40 day program. Have a blessed Christmas full of Love and Joy.
Celso Azevedo • 8 de Setembro de 2010 às 13:28Olá Cleo,iudau só testei criando uma página de fãs através de um perfil. Não sei se funciona dessa forma como você fez (eu até nem sabia que era possÃvel fazer sem estar vinculada a nenhum perfil!).
That’s an ingenious way of thinking about it.
I’m really into it, thanks for this great stuff!
I really needed to find this info, thank God!
When poaching eggs break them into a ramekin or small cup and then slide them from the cup into the simmering water so that they stay together. Otherwise, if break an egg directly into the water the parts of the egg fall into the water at different times, making a hot mess.
Eh, we were already undergoing a slow creep toward it long before we decided to toss the king out on his year.They were further confirmed in this pleasing error by the form of theirprovincial legislative assemblies. Their governments are popular in an high degree; some are merely popular; in all, the popular representative is the most weighty; and this share of the people in their ordinary government never fails to inspire them with lofty sentiments, and with a strong aversion from whatever tends to deprive them of their chief importance.
Great article, thank you again for writing.
No question this is the place to get this info, thanks y’all.
Very true! Makes a change to see someone spell it out like that. 🙂
Wow! What a big job. The problem with the totes is they seem to have new colors every year! They look great the way they are…organized! I hope to do the same this year. Not a resolution, just a hope Good job there girl! 😀
Normalement le projet photo 52 va évoluer mais devrait continuer de vivre l’année prochaine, je fais tout pour mettre en place un système qui serait moins lourd pour moi car je ne sais pas si j’aurai le temps de tout prendre en charge comme cette année ! Reste dans le coin et tu seras vite mise au courant de tout ça .
You make things so clear. Thanks for taking the time!
Surprising to think of something like that
It is Fish’s, and frankly, I haven’t encountered a better account of it.I use Mark Musa’s translation from The Viking Portable Dante. I’ve also read Longfellow’s translation, I’ve not tried Sayers. I find that Musa strikes a nice balance between not trying to be overly literal and not trying to pretend that Dante isn’t Italian. That, and his footnotes are quite good, and my memory isn’t nearly capacious enough to remember all of the stories behind all of the Italian and classical figures in the poem.
This article achieved exactly what I wanted it to achieve.
10aSimply Amazing!…This is some awosome IDEA! Wow Where do you come up with this stuff! Look im a long time reader of this blog and i am always amaized at your train of thought!…
Canadian Thanksgiving Greetings to All!What a comprehensive round-up of posts from the ADR blogosphere!As a new blogger, I aspire to having a future post included and hope to be submitting one for consideration, perhaps for the next issue of the Blawg Review.Kind regards,-Arnold Zeman
I totally agree! I like to offer both because, frankly, some folks still love a huge bowl of pasta, but the European way of consumption is 100% my preferred method.

the safety latch for the hood is on the passenger side so that when you pull the car over to the side of the highway, you work on the right side of the car… preventing anybody from being swept away by oncoming traffic
Your answer lifts the intelligence of the debate.
Shoot, who would have thought that it was that easy?
I absolutely love divergent!!!!!!!!! I just read insurgent in one day and it was so breathtaking!!!!!!! I would love to be in it just in the backround or anything!!!! Email me please about it. If I would pick a faction it would be erudite because I fit the best in it . I am smart, wear glasses, and I absolutely love blue I also act like them and I love putting pins in my hair!:) I loved hunger games but I know divergent movie is going to to be SO MUCH BETTER’!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved both of the books and I like how the hunger games have not that famous people in it!!!! I bet the last book will be the bestEmail me or anything
Your articles are for when it absolutely, positively, needs to be understood overnight.
Jezzebel, het is bijna een uit mijn raam blog. Als het mij gepermitteerd is een kleine tip te geven? Een klein beetje contrast bij deze foto’s en ze zijn stukken mooier, of wilde je juist dat beetje omvloerste? groetjes ren é
I really wish there were more articles like this on the web.
Chris RobertsThe Prospect is especially indulgent of using a racist word. That the author of “In Praise of Dead Whit Men” is allowed to call Caucasians “whitey” shows the magazine’s indifference to inflammatory words and Johns’ regression back to the ghetto.
Four score and seven minutes ago, I read a sweet article. Lol thanks
Wat is dit voor gelul over onderzoek? Waarom niet gewoon dingen proberen en vervolgens evalueren? Vgl. Apple dat weigert marktonderzoek te doen omdat mensen toch niet weten of ze nog niet bestaande producten wel/niet gaan kopen.Meneer Broertjes verbergt zich achter een schaamlap.Arjan Bolhuis
Full of salient points. Don’t stop believing or writing!
Your answer lifts the intelligence of the debate.
Thanks for introducing a little rationality into this debate.
davidpsummers [I think use of slashes preventing my pot from posting (?). Here’s hoping I’m not duplicating…..]Well, the political system pushes toward binary stances like “for vs. against”, “our side vs. their side”, “evil vs. good” (etc.) that leave little room for the middle. I’m sure there are a lot of women who move away from radical feminism but not to radical anti-feminism, but the system gives the biggest voice to those who swing completely to the other side.

Yo, good lookin out! Gonna make it work now.
Thinking like that shows an expert’s touch
Man bekommt Selbstbewusstsein indem man sich nicht zu ernst nimmt.Dann sieht man das Leben als Spiel und alles was man macht oder machen kann ist ein Spiel. Dann muss man nur noch zum Mitspielen Lust haben.
Your website has to be the electronic Swiss army knife for this topic.
honestly, TRUTH.the drawings are totally true. being curvy (and also chubby)… many outfits are cut to look really nice, really nice on people on slimmer, then you try them on and you're like YIKES.<3 curvy girls rule though.honestly.
hey mate, was just out this video and spotted your comment. i agree with all you points except for drinking water untill your urine is clear. this can be dangerous as it depletes your sodium stores which can lead to seizures. its best to just maintain a light yellowish urine colour…. well thats what i was taught anyway. cheers
The purchases I make are entirely based on these articles.
Son of a gun, this is so helpful!
Beste Kenneth in de eerste plaats gefeleciteerd met het 5 jarig bestaan van uw site. Ik heb al veel bijgeleerd waarvoor mijn dank.Toch zou ik willen vragen in verband met de aanschaf van grijsfilters over welk bedrag het ongeveer gaat.Dank u.
Your answer was just what I needed. It’s made my day!
Beautifully expressed and complex. It’s so often our dreams that reveal our deepest fears and yearnings, but it’s hard to know exactly what those dreams are telling us. The appearance of those adorable grandchildren made the dream real.
Which came first, the problem or the solution? Luckily it doesn’t matter.
HHIS I should have thought of that!
You put the lime in the coconut and drink the article up.

Historical assumptions about research that may have lead to this violation maybe not understanding completely how a specific drug may work. It seems as though the researchers involved rushed to experimenting on humans before taking into account all of the nuances associated with a particular drug. As noble a cause it is to advance science and help innumerable people health-wise, the ends don’t justify the means when the researchers try for a cure and it costs a life it was meant to better. This outcome could have been predicted by, say, most experiments that have not been thought through carefully.
Love the gift… Deep and simple Christmas blessing. Thank you. Joan
