LESSON FORTY

TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: The Course text is in bold face. The Guidance is in normal type In His Guidance, He has asked Me to capitalize the pronouns You and We as an acknowledgement of the Divinity of All of Us, an acknowledgement of Equality, an expression of His Love and respect for You. When You see the word ‘YOU’ capitalized in the Guidance, know that He is not just speaking to YOU, He is honoring YOU.

I am blessed as a Son of God.

When You do realize Who and What You are, You’ll turn Your back with rapidity upon the ego, and take My hand that We may joyously run Home together.

To ‘die’ is not the key; Connection with Holy Spirit is.  Why so?  Because Holy Spirit is but Your Reality. It does stand, awaiting Your acceptance! You need not ‘earn’ It.  Life is What You are.

Happy anticipation of Your realization lights Your way Home to Living Heaven, a journey that takes no longer than You saying “Yes! I want to be Home!”

¹ Today we will begin to assert some of the happy things to which you are entitled, being what you are.

– Dear good Presence of the Father-Mother, Ray of Living Love. It’s You I speak to!  You will clap Your hands with such delight when You see Your Real Self again, that’s the One You have been hiding. –

No long practice periods are required today, but very frequent short ones are necessary.

– What a blessing is today’s Lesson! You get to be happy frequently today! –

Once every ten minutes would be highly desirable, and you are urged to attempt this schedule and to adhere to it whenever possible. If you forget, try again. If there are long interruptions, try again. Whenever you remember, try again.

There is no condemnation, for Your Gift is ever-present.

² You need not close your eyes for the exercise periods, although you will probably find it more helpful if you do. However, you may be in a number of situations during the day when closing your eyes would not be appropriate. Do not miss a practice period because of this. You can practice quite well under almost any circumstance, if you really want to.

³ Today’s exercises take little time and no effort. Repeat today’s idea, and then add several of the attributes which you associate with being a Son of God, applying them to yourself. One practice period might, for example, consist of the following:

⁴ I am blessed as a Son of God.
I am happy, peaceful, loving, and contented.

As the Son of God, I am lovable as well as loving, peace-making too, as well as peaceful.  Others feel safe with Me.

⁵ Another might be something as follows:

⁶ I am blessed as a Son of God.
I am calm, quiet, assured, and confident.

I Love to give the gift of Peace to Every One whom  I meet.

⁷ If only a brief period is available, merely telling yourself that you are blessed as a Son of God will do.

And beyond saying, and really and truly accepting that You are the Holy Son of God will change everything for You most positively.

Fear will be gone forever, along with all other pain and suffering, replaced with Peace and Joy and fun beyond Your present comprehension.

Be-ing Awake is quite exciting, yet never is it frenetic.  Just a steady, calm experience of happiness, so very lovely.
