\u201cForgiveness represents your function here \u2026 on earth you need the means to let illusion go.\u201d<\/em> [CE W-192.2:2-5]<\/p>\n\n\n\n And so we enter into the lessons on forgiveness. I feel the peace of God \u2026 this feels like a welcoming home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I have traveled another year of workbook practices that have pulled out threads of the identity tapestry I have sown, undoing all the illusions of who I pretend to be as well as the beliefs of this world that have me do what I do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why do I feel peaceful entering into these lessons on forgiveness?<\/p>\n\n\n\n For one thing, my function here becomes simple \u2013 just one thing that I need to remember. That is to see others with love and compassion. Jesus has told me all of the ways that what I believe about this world is false, so now I know that it is difficult for everyone who is living an Earth bound life. I can show mercy to each one for mistaken actions and beliefs because I have been there as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Secondly, it feels like a homecoming. I have made it past half-term, adjusted to the curriculum, and know that I have finally reached what this course is meant to teach me, forgiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I am ready!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBe merciful today. The Son of God deserves your mercy \u2026 His Father\u2019s Love for him belongs to you. Your function here on earth is only to forgive him that you may accept him back as your identity. He is as God created him.\u201d (para.10)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n For a few weeks now I have been studying the \u2018Manual for Teachers\u2019. I think that teaching is in my future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Last night I read an article on circleofa.org by Robert Perry which outlined a holy moment of Salvation, \u2018The Core Unit of Salvation\u2019. This described the transformative interaction of two people coming to see themselves as one through their shared interests. I acknowledge that this summary of the article is shallow and that I desire to go deeper as I sense it will help me better understand my function here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Feeling blessed and curious. I am ready to receive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cForgiveness represents your function here.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course it is forgiveness! It is the way to bring the flow of Love into a world that has been turned away from Love and compassion for many generations. There is much to fix and change, but the old ways of forcing what one group thinks is right no longer works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today Fr. Richard wrote with regards to the \u2018Exclusion of Belonging\u2019, \u201cI must see God in the other, I must access God in myself, and I must experience God in a new way that is larger than an \u2018Enforcer\u2019. ~ CAC Daily Meditation 7-11-2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n Forgiveness calls Love into me, to flow to another, to resolve how God deems most beneficial to All.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cForever pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, extending love, creating in its name, forever one with God and with your Self.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n My function is forgiveness. The lesson says that forgiveness is of Heaven and has no form at all. We are the ones who bring this down into the Earth, the place of form. Watching Wimbledon this week, I found myself very judge mental of a player. There was a match where they were vocal, cursing, complaining. The opponent was upset, and their actions showed this. I wanted the first player to be punished for creating the troubled environment and felt that the second player was justified for their actions. The next day I saw interviews with the two players. My assessment of the first player changed to seeing that he was just different from my norm and misunderstood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a time of accepting and opening our hearts to All, even those who are different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I feel grateful now for this player. When I was able to watch him play again, I saw the face of innocence in God\u2019s son as the Course invites us to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Namaste.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have a function God would have me fill. 7-11-2026 \u201cForgiveness represents your function here \u2026 on earth you need the means to let illusion go.\u201d [CE W-192.2:2-5] And so we enter into the lessons on forgiveness.
