    • A Date with Destiny
      A Date with Destiny

      David and Linda joyfully come together to explore an incredibly deep and foundational topic. A Date with Destiny In this ‘Date with Destiny’ interview, David and Linda joyfully come together to explore an incredibly deep and foundational topic, one that lies “at the bottom of it all,” according to David. With great enthusiasm, David shares that our date with destiny is the most significant date we could ever have. It is the date that sets our minds free, as our ultimate destiny is the remembrance of our true identity: Spirit, at one with God. In essence, our destiny is to live in total joy; a glorious inheritance bestowed upon us by our Creator. David emphasizes that this realization can only bring immense relief and relaxation to the mind, as we recognize how abundantly loved we are and always have been! And this agape love, unconditional and unwavering, cannot be diminished. It remains forever unchanging. Jesus: A Gospel of Love on Destiny: “We know when we're feeling those feelings of emptiness, like, What's the point? It's like that Beatles song, "Another Day." It's one of those days where we go through the motions of the day, thinking there has to be more to it. That my soul has a destiny, and that destiny will be fulfilled through joy. I will have more and more ascending steps of joy and more intense joy as I go towards this ultimate joy.” To experience this perfect joy God wills for us, David imparts that our journey must inevitably venture into mysticism , with a willingness to embrace divine silence. We make room for the Holy Spirit by emptying our minds of “everything we think we think and everything we think we know.” Of everything that seemed reasonable, rational and important. When we truly let go of the thoughts of the ‘doer’ and listen to the voice for God instead, all actions flow naturally and spontaneously. “The spiritual journey is giving the mind permission to experience itself, the beingness, not the doingness” David Hoffmeister Only profound joy emerges from a life lived spontaneously, when the future is placed in the hands of God! By embracing spontaneity, you allow yourself to be clueless, shedding the stress that often follows the old notions of preparation and personal responsibility. David gleefully lifts a trash can up to the camera, urging that we can crumble up the to-do list and be glad! “The presence of Christ is not in time,” Linda shares. Once we accept the destiny or pre-arrangement of our lives, we witness a “cosmic dance where everything is perfect and nothing is out of place, regardless of how the external images appear.” The conversation naturally transitions to the upcoming Mystical Christ Academy (MCA), an 8-week journey brimming with joy and spontaneity. David and Linda delve into the heart of what the Academy has to offer this year. And without a doubt, an immense gift is in store for all who are destined to participate! Over the course of the 8 weeks, beloveds from around the globe will come together with a sole shared purpose: to transcend the need for learning by directly experiencing the ‘I Am presence.’ Jesus taught us, ‘the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand’ (Matthew 3:2). However, these words from the Gospels serve merely as pointers, David shares. They don’t hold meaning unless we intend to have the experience firsthand! Through this Academy, Jesus is inviting us to ‘come into the presence of Christ,’ to enter a state of being where our minds are wholly enveloped by God’s love. The team is deeply ignited in this shared purpose. Their hearts are swirling with excitement, eager to discover what the Spirit has in store for the Academy this year. In alignment with the spirit of joy and spontaneity, the team is not planning the MCA in a traditional way. They simply come together in the prayer “we don’t know, Spirit, show us the way,” with the intention of tuning into inspiration, following guidance and not getting lost in fear thoughts that anything need be prepared. According to Linda, the perfect ideas are miraculously showing up this way, noted onto a whiteboard! David remarks on how playful this is; not trying to adhere to any ritual or structure for the upcoming event. Reflecting on last year's MCA, what truly stood out for David was the vibrant participation, the spontaneity of each day, and the synergy experienced by both presenters and participants. This year's Academy is expected to embrace the same aliveness by its very nature of spontaneity. Here, everyone can just enjoy the moment and the holy encounters. Ultimately, it all serves as a backdrop for connecting with one another, and as David acknowledges, “the form will look how it looks.”🌟🌀🕊️ ✨If you feel a swirl in your heart to be a part of this years Mystical Christ Academy, you can sign up here!: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/mystical-christ-academy-2024 ✨Watch the full interview here!: the-christ.net Previous Next Faith, Believe, Belief, Trust Purpose, Mind Training, Focus, Intention, Calling, Goal, Devotion, Plan Up Discover the Way of the Mystic: Free Online Revivals Every Weekend Mystical Christ Academy Christmas Edition: Reborn in Light Where Is the Real Choice?

    • The Decision for God
      The Decision for God

      How to decide for God's love and truth in every situation. The Decision for God Every situation that is presented to us is an opportunity for prayer. The decision for God is always present in our mind. This decision means that no matter what is presented, or what plays out, our decision is to be taken deeper into Truth. Now. Beyond the things of this world. When our desire for God is all that we want, we are no longer afraid, because there is no outcome that could go wrong. God is the one Guarantee, the one Guaranteed Outcome. When He is truly the aim I seek, and the aim of all my living here, I have nothing to fear. Because what I sought, I found. The end is here and now, in my heart. Any other 'end goal' takes my mind into identifying as a body, in the script, in the future. That is a scary thought. It doesn't matter the details. Simply identifying with the 'person', the 'body', 'in the script' is a scary thought - for it is to identify with something separate, something apart from God. Something that can be threatened. God is not in time. God is Love, here and now. There is a sameness behind all appearances, a Love beyond all images, a consistency beneath all happenings. In the deep recesses of our Mind, we have not forgotten our Father. Our oneness with Him is unshaken by illusions. We have always abided in His everlasting Love. “You will identify with what you think will make you safe. Whatever it may be, you will believe that it is one with you. Your safety lies in truth, and not in lies. Love is your safety. Fear does not exist. Identify with love, and you are safe. Identify with love, and you are home. Identify with love, and find your Self.” (What is the body? ACIM) "Father, You stand before me and behind, beside me, in the place I see myself, and everywhere I go. You are in all the things I look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches for my own. In You time disappears, and place becomes a meaningless belief. For what surrounds Your Son and keeps him safe is Love itself. There is no Source but this, and nothing is that does not share Its Holiness; that stands beyond Your one creation, or without the Love which holds all things within itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your Own Name today, to be at peace within Your everlasting Love. My brothers, join with me in this today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not join in what will save the world, along with us?"

    • What Are The Beatitudes Jesus Spoke About
      What Are The Beatitudes Jesus Spoke About

      Jesus' teachings illuminated the ultimate truth of our existence. What Are The Beatitudes Jesus Spoke About? How Can We Teach love In This World? Jesus consistently directed our focus beyond the material world, transcending time and form. His teachings illuminated the ultimate truth of our existence; teachings emanating from love and forgiveness. In His timeless sermon on the mount, Jesus presented the beatitudes, a series of blessings that foster a state of blessedness. These profound statements invite us to experience life as children of God. By embracing humility, meekness, and a hunger and thirst for truth, we align ourselves with divine principles. The beatitudes remind us that true blessedness lies not in worldly achievements but in our connection to God’s love within our hearts. “And he opened his mouth, and taught them; saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:3). Jesus isn’t referring to material poverty, instead, He points to a state of being: the poor in spirit acknowledge the limitations of the egoic mind and desire to transcend them. When we shed the illusion of self-sufficiency and humbly acknowledge our dependence on God we become open to His divine grace. True richness lies in dwelling in the beatitudes—in God’s love, peace, and joy. These are the treasures of the heart that transcend earthly wealth; as David Hoffmeister says: “ Do you have the possessions, or do the possessions have you?” “Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.” (Matthew 5:5) To be meek is not weakness; it is a state of being characterized by gentleness, patience, kindness, and humility. Meekness arises from a holy perception, one that transcends the ego’s demands and aligns with divine truth. Jesus embodied meekness during His crucifixion. Jesus submitted His will to God, saying, “...Not my will but Thy Will be done.” (Luke 22:42). “ He was identified with the Christ idea! He was aligned in that flow, aligned to Source, and not identified with anything in the world. ” (David Hoffmeister). “Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.” (Matthew 5:9) Our true inheritance lies in inner peace . When we accept this as our goal, our awakening accelerates. Peace is the absence of conflict; it’s a state of alignment with divine truth. Jesus reminds us that we are not sons and daughters of humanity; we are children of God. Our essence transcends earthly roles. When we remember our divine origin, peace becomes our birthright. In guiding us back to truth, Holy Spirit uses even what the ego made to lead us Home. “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” (Matthew 5:4) No one comes into time and space without being tested, and sometimes to the limit. But when we suffer, it often stems from egoic decisions that go against God’s Will and lead us away from His peace. The path to happiness lies in trust; we trust that Holy Spirit will purify our heart’s desires, and as we surrender to God’s will, peace returns to our mind. “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” (Matthew 5:6) Jesus is referring here to spiritual hunger; a yearning for truth, goodness, and alignment with God’s will. He invites us to recognize that our wants and needs are rooted in perception, not in ultimate Reality. What God created is abundant, and we lack nothing. The path to correcting perception lies in forgiveness and miracle working. As we forgive illusions and align with divine truth, our perception shifts closer to Reality. “Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” (Matthew 5:8) To be pure in heart is to cleanse our inner being; to remove the veils of ego, judgment, and fear. It’s about keeping our hearts open to the love of God. When we offer this divine love to all our brothers and sisters we glimpse our true Self. We recognize that we are Love, created by Love, and eternally connected to the Source. The pure in heart behold God not with physical eyes but with spiritual vision. In the depths of love, we encounter the Divine. “God is everything; Spirit is everything; Love is everything; and the world of time and space is nothing. And yet, if we believe in nothing as our identity, we are unhappy, because we are children of God. We breathe, live, and move in Spirit and light. We are a child of light.” (David Hoffmeister) To dive deeper into the experience of the teachings of Jesus: A Gospel of Love , visit https://store.livingmiraclescenter.org/collections/featured/products/jesus-a-gospel-of-love the-christ.net Previous Next Christianity, Christian, Bible, Religion Up Discover the Way of the Mystic: Free Online Revivals Every Weekend Mystical Christ Academy Christmas Edition: Reborn in Light Where Is the Real Choice?

    • Awakening Hearts David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles Community
      Awakening Hearts David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles Community

      Awaken Your Heart: Discover Joy with David Hoffmeister & Living Miracles Awakening Hearts: David Hoffmeister & the Living Miracles Community Mystic David Hoffmeister is a living testament to the possibility of true, consistent peace of mind. David’s profound, spiritual journey began in 1986 when he discovered A Course in Miracles , recognizing it as the transformative tool he had long sought to radically shift his mind and perceptions. Renowned globally for his practical teachings and crystal-clear insights into the teachings of Jesus, David’s pure message consistently points to the boundless, unconditional Love of God. Inspired by David’s radiant joy and unwavering dedication to spiritual awakening and inner peace, a devoted group of students formed around him, flourishing into a spiritual community that embraces a simple, heartfelt life, deeply committed to the singular purpose of inner listening and following the Holy Spirit’s guidance. About the Living Miracles Community This residential spiritual community is known as Living Miracles and follows two essential guidelines: no private thoughts and no people-pleasing. Everyone who arrives receives an opportunity to practice these guidelines in daily living, and to open up to authenticity and deep trust with one another. Awakening to the truth of who we are is a collaborative venture of undoing the ego and discovering how to live a life that is truly inspired. Spiritual awakening is not individual or personal; it is of the whole, of the one mind awakening, connecting with everything it believes so it can be released. When the mind aligns with the purpose of the Holy Spirit, the things that previously served the ego's purpose are now utilized for the purpose of awakening. Through this shift of purpose, everything in this world becomes a symbol used by the Holy Spirit to help the mind unlearn the ego's thought system. These symbols—such as technology, movies, poetry, or music—hold no meaning in and of themselves. It is their purpose that gives them meaning. In this way, the symbols we encounter are tools for unwinding the mind from false beliefs and perceptions, guiding it toward a state of peace and harmony with divine providence. Spiritual community is one of these symbols and can be allowed to serve in the most helpful way for the whole. The Living Miracles community is a symbol that embodies a light, happy, and reverent state of mind. The symbol is not special or sacred on its own. Nothing exists apart from God as a separate entity in itself. Yet in serving the Holy Spirit's purpose, all are welcome and warmly embraced. This community is a family of light that is drawn together by a devotion to Awakening that each one feels in their heart. For us to accept the truth of who we are, and receive the gift that God wants us to have and be—true happiness—we must allow the Holy Spirit to cleanse us of everything that is not Love. The direct experience of inner peace and union with the Spirit is what it is all about. All are included in the Spirit's purpose, and all are reminded of who they are. The presence of God is very apparent to a mind that is willing to receive what God has given forever. Teaching aids appear in many forms, and words, music, books, videos, websites, apps, online courses, etc. serve the plan through the Guidance of the Holy Spirit. The world is filled with parables of hope, which reflects the Living Miracles community. The desire of the heart is all that is truly required. Today, the Living Miracles community flourishes in centers in Utah and Mexico and extends its presence globally through a vibrant online community and (online) events, resources, and travels. Tribe of Christ: A Global Online Community At the heart of the Tribe of Christ is a shared purpose and vibrant interactivity among its members. This online community is dedicated to deepening in Christian mysticism and ACIM through the lively exchange of experiences, challenges, and everyday questions. Tribe of Christ hosts a variety of engaging live online events with Living Miracles community residents and devoted Tribe members, who enrich the community by sharing their miraculous journeys and experiences through interactive miracle-sharings and podcasts. These events are all included in Tribe! Try it out with a 10-day free trial and join this family of Light today!

Each package offers over 10 hours of high-quality video teachings, insightful Q&A sessions, heartfelt music, and mind-blowing movie commentary, all accessible at your own pace with unlimited return access. These themed retreats provide a rich, immersive experience for spiritual seekers. Additionally, the transformational documentary Take Me Home , filmed at the Living Miracles Monastery, witnesses the authentic spiritual journey of a group embracing the community’s guidelines of no private thoughts and no people-pleasing.

    • Being Held in Gods Grace
      Being Held in Gods Grace

      The fundamental question arises: How can we authentically live in alignment with our true Self, while the illusion of time still seems real? How Can We Regain Awareness of Being Held in God’s Grace? How Can We Regain Awareness of Being Held in God’s Grace? The fall from grace is a delusional belief in the sleeping mind of the Son of God. It convinces itself that it has achieved the impossible by separating from its Creator. Terrified by this heady delusion, the sleeping mind scrambled to shed its ontological guilt of separation by projecting a world of form outside itself. The ego declares, ‘This is your new home,’ to the bewildered sleeping mind! “Into eternity, where all is one, there crept a tiny, mad idea, at which the Son of God remembered not to laugh.”(ACIM T-27.VIII.6:2) God Is, and so must His Son be, for He created Him. Nothing can alter this truth, just as nothing can defy His Will that He and His Son remain together in eternity. Embracing these truths wholeheartedly brings forth peace and joy, releasing the mind from the error of believing it is no longer in unity with God and His innocence. Instead, the mind mistakenly perceives itself as sinful and guilty due to separation from Him. As the mind acknowledges that the universe of form is but a fleeting dream and a vast illusion, the inner light grows brighter and more visible. Thus, the mind realizes it has never truly departed from its Source. “For the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” (2 Corinthians 4:18) The fundamental question arises: How can we authentically live in alignment with our true Self, while the illusion of time still seems real? How do we extend God’s love and light to our fellow brothers and sisters, seemingly on earth? In a world made by the ego to extinguish peace and joy, how do we attain inner serenity and lasting joy? Lastly, how do we recover our awareness that we are still being held in grace by God? The answer lies in wholeheartedly accepting the truth and steadfastly rejecting its denial. “Deny illusions, but accept the truth. Deny you are a shadow briefly laid upon a dying world. Release your mind and you will look upon a world released.” ACIM Lesson 132 This is the lesson of forgiveness that God has entrusted to the Holy Spirit to aid us. The Holy Spirit holds the memory of God and His Son, the Christ. While acknowledging the error, the Holy Spirit gazes beyond it, reminding us of what is genuinely true and real. Through this divine guidance, the Holy Spirit sets free a deceived mind that believes in the reality of the time-space world. Forgiveness becomes the sole path to forgetting this fragmented world, forgiving illusions, and releasing the past dream of judgments. By aligning ourselves with the Holy Spirit and Jesus’ teachings, we embark on a journey toward the happy dream. In this dream, the universe unfolds as a seamless tapestry of wholeness and forgiveness. The perception of wholeness persists as the final illusion until the mind embraces its eternal nature, shared with its Creator. “There is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.” (Matthew 10:26) Within our mind, only the thoughts aligned with God hold truth. Ego concepts, which construct a world of illusions, attempt to defy this fundamental truth. By embracing the realization that we are an unalterable Mind created by God, we begin to experience the reality of love and light. This awakening enables us to extend these truths to others, emanating from the core of our being. “Today, I accept the truth about myself in order to bless, heal, and comfort others.” David Hoffmeister When we align with the Holy Spirit, we open ourselves to the inner light that permeates our being and flows through us. Recognizing the reality of this light, we also acknowledge its profound capacity to heal. It is only by accepting that the Holy Spirit is the ultimate healer that we can begin to feel safe in allowing this light to shine. As we surrender every encounter and circumstance to the guidance and blessing of the Holy Spirit, His healing power becomes increasingly evident. We can hand over everything including our relationships, false beliefs or intense emotions. By relinquishing control and allowing the Holy Spirit to fulfill His divine role, which always yields fruit, our trust in Him deepens. We become increasingly aware that we are truly held in God’s Grace, bestowed upon us through the magnificent gift of healing embodied in the Holy Spirit. The truth of being held in God's Grace can only be recognized in the Now. This moment transcends time; it is timeless and free from the illusory constraints that foster the belief in separation from God. Therefore, it is paramount to join the Holy Spirit in the holy instant, excluding the mind's chatter and distractions that only serve to conceal the holy instant from our sight. “Each instant is a clean, untarnished birth, in which the Son of God emerges from the past into the present. And the present extends forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and free of guilt that nothing but happiness is there. No darkness is remembered, and immortality and joy are now.” (ACIM T-15.I.8:4-7) the-christ.net Previous Next Awakening, Enlightenment, Waking, Self Realization, Self Realized, Wake Up Holy Spirit, Spirit, Voice for God, Intuition, Inner Voice, Guide, Higher Self Up Discover the Way of the Mystic: Free Online Revivals Every Weekend Mystical Christ Academy Christmas Edition: Reborn in Light Where Is the Real Choice?

    • Who Is Jesus Christ? | Jesus: A Gospel of Love
      Who Is Jesus Christ? | Jesus: A Gospel of Love

      Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Light that came to earth to be a witness for his Father’s Love and to teach true forgiveness. His parables and stories gave us a clear pathway to the remembrance of God and the recognition that the Kingdom of Heaven is within. Who Is Jesus Christ? The Embodiment of Unconditional Love and the Perfect Example of Divine Alignment God has many helpers, but the question of who is Jesus Christ a very important one. Jesus is your beloved elder brother, and your very Self. He is the embodiment of unconditional love and the perfect example of how to live in alignment with the truth of our divine nature. He is the wayshower, showing us how to live in harmony with God and how to love one another. He is the bridge between Heaven and Earth, and his teachings are a reminder of our true identity as spiritual beings. “Our connection with Jesus is really our connection with our Self because Jesus is a symbol that represents the Self that God created.” David H offmeis ter Our Relationship with Jesus Play Video Facebook Twitter Pinterest Tumblr Copy Link Link Copied Jesus the Christ as a Savior Jesus' role as a savior is rooted in his ability to see the face of Christ in all people, which allowed him to remember God and become one with Him. By following Jesus' example and recognizing the false without accepting it as true, we too can become identified with Christ and experience the salvation that comes with it. Ultimately, understanding the true nature of Jesus Christ will lead us to discover our own true nature as well. When we recognize the Love that Jesus represents, we also come to know ourselves as part of that Love. Therefore, the question "Who is Jesus Christ?" is closely linked to the question "Who am I?"

      Notes of Inspiration An Interview with Peter Kirk

      Enjoy this Strawberry interview with Peter Kirk in preparation for Strawberry Fields Festival 2024! Notes of Inspiration: An Interview with Peter Kirk As this year’s Strawberry Fields Festival approaches, we’re excited to share some of our “Notes of Inspiration” behind this 3-day event. I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with Peter Kirk for an intimate conversation about his journey with music and opening to drumming as a way of tuning into the Spirit. Last year, Peter received the guidance (and the means!) to be the drummer in the Living Miracles worship band, RISE . In this interview, he shares joyfully about the involuntary nature of the miracle and the orchestration behind the band, plus the significance of this year’s Strawberry Fields Festival held at the Living Miracles Monastery in Utah, from July 12-14. Pete shares how he miraculously became the drummer for RISE: “I feel like Spirit gave me some kind of green light. I had this little whim down there that I hadn’t been aware of. As soon as I was tuning into spirit, I just wanted to say, “Yes!” to whatever feels the most expansive. And as you know, we all join together in the community every day to pray about what is most helpful for everyone. I didn’t have a strong sense of really wanting to play music, at least not intensely over the last 10 years. But then the idea came to others at the same time that it came to me. Suddenly, I just felt this spark, and I feel so grateful. I wasn’t aware that it was going to light me up. And it is so joyful. I love doing this, and I didn’t have to make it happen.” Since 2012, there have been a number of Strawberry Fields Festivals. Peter attended the most recent one in 2018 and this was very significant for him. I asked him how it feels to be attending this year's Festival as a member of RISE: “ I feel this brightness about the festival and being at the Monastery and the beautiful Strawberry Canyon. It feels like the canyon is such a symbol of this big open heart. We had different musical acts last time, but this festival is going to be a bit more intimate in a way. It’s a bit shorter, but it feels like it’s going to be this intimate time together. It has been given for us to really share from our hearts, and I think everything we do as a community together is about our shared prayer, purpose, and communication. I feel like that’s what we want to extend through the music as well.” The Strawberry Fields Festival 2024 promises to be an intimate and joyful celebration with live music, movie commentaries, and enlightenment talks with David Hoffmeister—a deep spirit of togetherness, and of course, all sprinkled with an abundance of exuberance and joy. This Festival will be held from July 12-14 in the breathtaking Canyons in Utah, near the Strawberry River. Join us to be lifted up into a "Strawberry" state of mind.

    • How Do We Overcome Fear
      How Do We Overcome Fear

      Fear, as intense as it can feel, is not real. Perfect love cast out fear. How Do We Overcome Fear? What does perfect love cast out fear mean? Fear, as intense as it can feel, is not real. It’s best thought of as an acronym, F.E.A.R. i.e. false evidence appearing real. The falsity of fear comes from the decision to experience the universe through the five senses. This lends itself to the perception of an unreal physical world which veils the Truth. Because our true nature is abstract Love and Light, experiencing physicality creates the illusion that our Reality, the Reality that God created, has somehow been altered. This is the belief in the ego, or the belief in separation from God. It grips the mind in fear, or oftentimes, terror. The body, which is the star of the show in the perceptual dream, is key to this altered state of mind from Heaven to hell, from safety to danger, and from oneness to separation. “The body is a fence the Son of God imagines he has built to separate parts of himself from other parts. It is within this fence he believes he lives to die as it decays and crumbles. But within this fence he believes he is safe from love ... and if he didn’t die, what “proof” is there that God’s eternal Son can be destroyed.” (ACIM W-260) ∼♥∼ Love is what we are, and love cannot be destroyed; to know fully who we are will cast out fear. ∼♥∼ Returning to Love often requires mind training, which slowly but surely draws our mind’s energy away from the ego, as this thought system is highly addictive when believed in. True forgiveness of the perceptual dream is realized through emptying our mind from all that it thinks it thinks and thinks it knows, to overcome its belief in the “I know” mind. Our real Mind holds only what we think with God, which is pure knowledge of our nature as Love and Light. Any unloving thoughts, which contradict our true nature, stem from the false belief that the perceptual dream is real; that we are merely the body, and that the five senses are a valid test in determining what reality is. Forgiving these thoughts and perceptions can be accomplished by observing them with the Holy Spirit, a gift given to us by God to guide us home. ∼♥∼ “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.” (Ephesians 2:8) ∼♥∼ As we withhold judgment of our feelings and perceptions, instead giving them over to the Holy Spirit, our mind begins to be cleansed of its perceptual errors; hastening in its return to the light. As we gently recover awareness of the power of our Mind, the light becomes more and more present within it. We become more and more adept at resisting the temptation to make egoic thoughts real or to accept them as true. Eventually, the knowledge of our pristine Mind, where fear can enter not, is recovered. Allowing the Holy Spirit to gently guide our mind to its original mooring in Love indeed changes the purpose for the body. It is transformed from a fence keeping us stuck in hell without hope of escape, to the means by which we can be freed and returned to sanity. In this way, the goal of Heaven has been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. As we allow only loving thoughts toward our brothers and sisters, we begin to recognize that they are intimately joined with us. They are walking along the road back to sanity with us, hand in hand. What a stark contrast to viewing them through the egoic lens which sees them as a source of competition and opposition to perpetuate fear! Now the body serves the Mind it was designed in. It is no longer being used in the ego’s plan for salvation to kill, but being used for the holy purpose of extending love. ∼♥∼ “There is an experience that brings an end to all uncertainty and an end to all questions. The experience is Love.” David Hoffmeister. ∼♥∼ To dive deeper into the experience of the teachings of Jesus: A Gospel of Love , visit https://store.livingmiraclescenter.org/collections/featured/products/jesus-a-gospel-of-love the-christ.net Previous Next Up Discover the Way of the Mystic: Free Online Revivals Every Weekend Mystical Christ Academy Christmas Edition: Reborn in Light Where Is the Real Choice?
