The Way Of Mastery ~ Love Heals all Things ~ Lesson 6
Jan Waldhoff
Hi Everyone,
We are starting our new year with anticipation; with excitement perhaps some intimidation. What ever you are feeling… this weeks lesson has the answers for you. Lesson six! It is simple:
Ask yourself, “What am “I” choosing? It is effortlessness, which means simply that you give up control to the resistance to what the Love for you requires each moment. Okay, it will take a bit of awareness and consciousness on your part. Are you not worthy of the Love that you were given, the Love that will never leave or be taken away?
You have a choice in every moment. Come to our class and find out what others are thinking choosing stumbling through. Accepting or fighting against; it is all-good because we are here to do this work. We are to “be” and to surrender into what is up for healing. Plus we are not alone we have God and we have each other. What more could you ask for??
Come and join us Wednesday night at 7pm. Drop in every class or drop in when it is convenient or when you are moved. We would love you every week. We will accept you anytime.
Check it out:
Love Heals all Things ~ Lesson 6
Love Heals All Things ~ Page 71 ~ At times, with in your hearts, there is a longing to follow me. If you would but heed that longing, if you would make that longing primary at all times, your own desire will bring you wholly to where I am. And you will laugh when you discover that you have not moved an inch – that where I am, is where you are, and where you are is in eternity, not in time; that where you are is in the place of your birth: the Mind Of God.
· Page 71 ~ …Love embraces all things, allows all things, trusts all things, and thereby, transcends all things. Love is never possessive. Love is never fearful. Love is simply Love. Love cannot shine with specialness upon anyone at anytime. For specialness, itself, is a contraction; the attempt to take Love and make it shine only on one object, only on one person, only on one being, only within one universe.
· If You Would Know Love, Know Yourself ~ Page 72 ~ When you choose to surrender, to give up the game, to give up the dream of trying to resist the Truth that is true about you always, you will become a mere channel, a mere conduit. You will become no more a seeker, for you will have decided to have found. When you have surrounded the last vestige of an insane possibility of contracting away from the Truth, when you have given that up, Love will flow through you. But notice that if it flows through you, it must first flow to you. Therefore, seek always to receive in order to give. For what you can give another if you have not received it to yourself?
· Page 72 ~ The greatest gift you can give another is to be one who has rescinded (removed) the need to insist on the insanity of fear.
· The Primary Characteristic of Mastery ~ Page 73 ~ Fearlessness is the primary characteristic of mastery. Mastery is not having great power to make things happen. It is only the recognition that what is true is true always and there is not other choice. Free will does not mean that you have the right to believe that you can succeed at being other than what God created you to be. Having free will does not mean that you can elect not to take the only curriculum that life is offering to you in every moment. It means only that you do have the right to put it off another day. And each time you put it off; you slumber in your suffering.
· Page 73 ~ …there is only one question you need answer:
What am I choosing in this moment?
· Page 74 ~ What have I given mastery over my life unto? What perception, what thought, what feeling? Feeling merely flows from the thought or the perception you have chosen. What behavior, what action am I choosing in this moment and does it express the reality of my being? Am I being busy extending love, or am I busying myself fearfully trying to grasp at what I think can give me love so that I do not lose it?
· Page 75 ~ …nothing – nothing – holds value except your relationship with your creator.
When you have experienced in relationship with anyone or anything a moment of bliss, a moment of a peace that forever passes all understanding, a moment of fulfillment so sweet and so sublime that no word could touch it, much less express it, what you have experienced is only the flow of the Love of God through you. That person or thing did not cause it.It was caused because, for just a moment, you stepped out of your drama, you stepped out of your dream, and allowed the Truth to be lived.
· Feeling Is The Doorway To Love And Freedom ~ Page 78 ~ Deny not the role of feeling in this dimension, for feeling is everything! You cannot even know the presence of God unless you feel it. You cannot think about the presence of God. You cannot insist on a belief about the presence of God. That does not do it; that does not fill your cup. Feeling fills you cup. Feeling - unbridled, unblocked, unobstructed feeling - is the doorway to that Love that sets you free forever.
· All You Need is Love ~ Page 77 ~ …Effortlessness means simply that you abandon the resistance to what Love requires each moment.
Effortlessness is the way to the Kingdom. …Effortlessness means that you let down the wall you have built between yourself and all of creation.
· Page 78 ~ …Nothing in this world has the power to hurt you and nothing in this world has the power to take anything from you, you are free.
· Page 79 ~ What day and hour will you decide to love yourself as God has first Loved you? To truly – to truly - once and for all, make the decision to live! For until you decide to live with and for and forever from the Mind of Christ, life has not yet begun!
· Only Through Feeling Do You Awaken ~ Page 81 ~ …the essence of this lesson is simple: Where are you now?
· Page 81 ~ Feeling is the message of this lesson. For it is only through feeling that you truly awaken.
· Page 82 ~ Never forget to sing, laugh, dance and play along the way!
Is my commitment to Love or is my commitment to fear?
