Today we practice learning to forgive - Week 3 of Giving and Receiving are One. W121 Blessing

In this video, we go through a forgiveness PRACTICE given by Jesus in Workbook Lesson 121 "Forgiveness is the key to happiness" in A Course in Miracles. This is week 3 of the theme of focus - which isthe PRACTICE of giving and receiving, so we can VALIDATE that it "giving and receiving" leads to the experience of happiness.

We start with the last two paragraphs of "What is forgiveness" on page 401 of the workbook. These two paragraphs should be read really slowly and carefully to understand the process of forgiveness. We are asked to be still and quietly do nothing (look at the person our thoughts are projecting onto and do nothing.... simply wait and judge not) Then, LET FORGIVENESS SHOW YOU WHAT TO DO.... through Him that is your guide...and FORGIVE (See the light within your brother) ....which is the same way your guide sees your brother...whose sinlessness He sees, and whom he honors as the Son of God.

Notice how these last two paragraphs of "What is forgiveness" and Workbook Lesson 121 practice, explain on detail, what we must do to PRACTICE "giving" the blessing of seeing the light within our brothers body and experience the "happiness" that comes from doing this practice.

It only takes a little willingness to do this practice. If you can tell yourself that happiness comes from seeing the light (holiness) within your brother, you will feel more motivated to keep attempting to do this "forgiveness practice" that Jesus gives us.

We also give the blessing from Lesson 108 to our brother to strengthen our happiness.

How amazing is it, that we are given the directions for "learning to forgive". How grateful are we, that we have a way out of hell. How beautiful to surrender ourselves to not knowing how to be happy, but to accept that Jesus does. This allows us to practice this "forgiveness process" exactly as he asks and bring along our abundant willingness to see the beautiful holy light of sinlessness in our brother..... knowing that by doing so, we get filled with the beautiful holy light of sinlessness ourselves.

Ideas leave not their source. Holiness does not leave our mind. As we offer gentleness, we receive it. Oh wow. This practice is the key to happiness. How amazing to be given the KEY to HAPPINESS.

Do you want to use the KEY to HAPPINESS or would you prefer to stay in hell? If you want happiness, then bring a determination that you want to see the light of God's holy love shining in the happy face of all your brothers. Open the temple doors and let the light of truth, stream into your mind and bathe in the glory of infinite gorgeous love.

Blessings of God's pure being.... Love Cate and Shannon
