Wonderwork
Tonight we find ourselves as sojourners,
Sweeping across the galaxy.
Each of us has inscribed a cardinal alliance
To make Earth our home.
The journey pivots on our freedom to choose
In an unbounded Universe.
Emerging from the emptiness of space,
The message arrives heaven blown.
May we turn to our adversaries in peace
And rise above our discontent.
For if we allow love to capture our souls
And make the shadows bright,
We give ourselves to be absorbed,
To merge with every race and creed,
To sing the darkness a name,
The manifestation of our reverent might.
With this endeavor,
We ignite the candle of our own illumination,
So that we may open our minds
And meet one another on life's crossway.
The lodestar shines clear,
Guiding our hearts with celestial splendor
To fathom the oneness of spirit
As the miracle of each and every day.

ACIM ~ Quote of the Week
"There is a place in you where this whole world has been forgotten; where no memory of sin and of illusion lingers still. There is a place in you which time has left, and echoes of eternity are heard. There is a resting place so still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden God the Father and the Son." (ACIM 29. V. 1: 1-3)
Practicing A Course in Miracles
It is best practice the Course from a space of trust as opposed to trying to understand it intellectually. In this manner, the experience of following the direction of the Course becomes the teacher. Moreover, being a student of ACIM automatically makes us a teacher of the Course - not because we begin preaching its principles, but simply because we begin to exhibit its truth through the practice itself. Thus, we teach by changing our response - our words and our actions naturally become more loving. In this manner, we are simultaneously students and teachers, learning through practicing... receiving through giving.How to Use the Lessons?
The key is to focus your attention fully on the guidance and meaning behind each day's lesson. Repeat the words often throughout the day, especially when a trying or challenging situation arises. There is an opportunity for real and continuous spiritual growth if you choose to take the lessons to heart. ACIM is the path of Love - walk it faithfully, with intention and great purpose.ACIM Workbook Lessons for the week of November 29 - December 5

Spiritual Support Group at Safe Harbor
Facilitated by Cathy Ginter, Spiritual Healer
"We are evolving from a species that pursues external power into a species that pursues Authentic Power. Authentic power has its roots in the deepest source of our being. An authentically empowered person is incapable of making anyone or anything a victim. An authentically empowered person is one who is so strong, so empowered, that the idea of using force against another is not a part of his or her consciousness." -Gary Zukav
Wednesday, December 9th ~ Authentic Power
7:30 - 9:00 PM
We will begin with a guided meditation followed by an open dialogue on creating relationships that honor our individuality while continuing to cultivate our connection with the whole of humanity.
The Spiritual Support Group at Safe Harbor meets the 2nd and 4th Wednesday evening of each month. This is an interactive group that will include a meditation or healing visualization as well as an open dialogue on various spiritual teachings including A Course in Miracles; The Urantia Book; the writings of Don Miguel Ruiz, Krishnamurti, Eckhart Tolle, Paul Ferrini and Rumi; angels and auras; near-death experiences; the Law of Attraction and other metaphysical topics of interest. We will also discuss issues that are relevant in current world events from a spiritual perspective.
My intention is to create a support group that inspires wisdom, inner peace, patience, love, and compassion.
Everyone is welcome.

A Glossary of Key 'Miracle' Terms
Atonement: the universal offering of healing whereby each of us remembers who we are and also who our brothers are... perfect and whole children of God.
God: Creator; Spirit; The Mind of God is the eternal, timeless state of Being; Oneness with Him and His Creations; perfect love, joy and peace.
Holy Spirit: The Voice of God; it is the Holy Spirit's plan for healing the separation that corrects our thinking and ultimately leads to the Atonement.
Miracle: The Holy Instant; the choice for forgiveness, regardless of the appearance of difficulty in any given situation; the realization of our spiritual connection with our brothers and with God.
Forgiveness: the willingness and the readiness to see the Face of Christ in everyone; the bridge between the ego and Spirit; the state of allowing all blame and guilt to be as though it never happened; true forgetfulness.
Ego: the dream, created by a split mind that justifies the false belief in the body and a world of illusion that is separate from God.
Separation: the identification with the ego and the world of form; the mistaken creation of time, pain, suffering and death.
Special Relationship: any relationship based on co-dependency; includes both the need to project resentment and blame, as well as the need for conditional love and attention. All special relationships generate resentment over time.
Perception: the projection of our belief system into the world, which in turn reflects the ego's subjective need for justice and vindication.
Knowledge: the pure experience of our true Identity; the realization that we are and always have been one Self united with our Creator.
When we offer peace,
The give in forgiveness leads
To the miracle.
ACIM Workbook Lesson of the Day
December 3 ~ Lesson 337
My sinlessness protects me from all harm.
W-pII.337.1. My sinlessness ensures me perfect peace, eternal safety, everlasting love, freedom forever from all thought of loss; complete deliverance from suffering. 2 And only happiness can be my state, for only happiness is given me. 3 What must I do to know all this is mine? 4 I must accept Atonement for myself, and nothing more. 5 God has already done all things that need be done. 6 And I must learn I need do nothing of myself, for I need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, created for me, now already mine, to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to understand my Father loves His Son; to know I am the Son my Father loves.
W-pII.337.2. You Who created me in sinlessness are not mistaken about what I am. 2 I was mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I accept Atonement for myself. 3 Father, my dream is ended now. 4 Amen.
