Full Appreciation

Good Morning Dearhearts,

For those who have ever attended the Friday night ACIM group I facilitate, you will probably remember how during the course of the evening participants share their experiences that enhance the current discussion topic. I always state that our group setting is a “safe and sacred space”. Akin to the ads for Las Vegas what happens there stays there.

I do not intend to divulge any sharing that occurred in that space, but I do want to speak in general terms about the importance of those sharing’s.

In the span any one lifetime, thousands upon thousands of experiences will happen. However, even though the expanse of happenings may be huge, not every possibility will occur to any ONE single being. The scenarios of our ego mind are almost limitless. Deceptions, twists and turns, disasters and heart wrenching incidents are only the tip of the ego’s iceberg.

When we gather and unburden or share our self to other like minded beings we are actually allowing the incidents to be transformed to the lessons we all need to learn. As we lesson our burden we teach lessons to others. There is no other perspective to have for this offering except appreciation.

Every moment we become aware of another having an experience we would choose to not have, we have the opportunity to bless and thank them for their Great Gift. This is in no way limited to any single situation; in truth being thankful is never limited. To be grateful is a sure sign we are beginning to dwell in the expansiveness of Love rather than in the limited life of the small self.

Appreciation can be found everywhere, but we do not always recognize it when it appears. It does not always show up in a form we can instantly identify. Oftentimes it will go un-noticed because it has no familiar characteristics to what we believe we know deserves our gratitude.

Here again is why we will only reach Heaven hand in hand with our Brother (Sisters too). We may think we reach our hand out to comfort someone for what they have experienced, but in Truth we are joining with them to Thank them for bringing All of US closer to the end/ beginning of our journey.

A Course in Miracles states in Chapter 6: V:A:4:7

“Only one equal gift can be offered to the equal Sons of God, and that is full appreciation. Nothing more and nothing less.”

At this moment I want all to know how much I appreciate the time you have taken to read this and encourage you to leave a comment. Whether you do or do not….

Remember
There IS Great Love Here For US Now!!!

In Light, Love and Peace,
