To be aware is to know who I Am in each tiny tick of time. It is not difficult because it is given. Awareness is ever present, and invitation to be responsible and to rejoice in the ever expanding awareness and simplicity of God presence and gifts.
In the manual for teachers I am given these timeless ideas:
" Even the most advanced of God's teachers will give way to temptation in this world. Would it be fair if their pupils were denied healing because of this? The Bible says, "Ask in the Name of Jesus Christ."
Is this merely an appeal to magic? A name does not heal, nor does an invocation call forth any special power. What does it mean to call on Jesus Christ? What does calling on his Name confer? Why is the appeal to him part of healing?
We have repeatedly said that one who has perfectly accepted the Atonement for himself can heal the world. Indeed, he has already done so.
Temptation may recur to others, but never to this One. He has become the risen Son of God. He has overcome death because he has accepted Life. He has recognized himself as God created him, and in so doing he has recognized all living things as part of him.
There is now no limit on his power, because it is the Power of God. So has his name become the Name of God, for he no longer sees himself as separate from Him.
We join in this awareness as we say that we are one with God.
For in these words we say as well that we are saved and healed; that we can save and heal accordingly. We have accepted, and we now would give.
For we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so that the world may share our recognition of reality.
In our experience the world is freed. As we deny our separation from our Father, it is healed along with us.
