Second Universal Reading for September 2024 You ARE a Part of God’s Son. Let Go of What Does Not Uphold that REALITY.
#1. Be aware that you walk in Grace as God’s Child and will be Guided.
This does not mean that you will not make mistakes, but that Father has you covered and will be corrected as you move forward in HIS Presence.
— -
#2. Let go of guilt, shame, and embarrassment for the WHOLE of God’s CREATION that a witness of your forgiveness is complete.
This confusion is a story of the confusion of belief in the possibility of separation from God.
Through the forgiveness of the Atonement, allow the truth to be revealed that the Father and Son could not be separated because THAT IS NOT the WILL of God, nor YOURS.

#3. The original Soul of Jesus was the first to consider the possibility of separation from God.
He has accepted the Atonement and forgiven the Sonship of any consequences that this idea seemed to manifest.
Follow him and take your place that no one else can fulfill, in the Atonement, which will allow us to let go of the addiction to the illusion of separation and the thought patterns and behaviors that came from that perceived belief.

#4. Depression
From A Course in Miracles:
(ACIM, T-4.IV.3:1–6:5)
3. When you are sad, know this need not be. ²Depression comes from a sense of being deprived of something you want and do not have. ³Remember that you are deprived of nothing except by your own decisions, and then decide otherwise.
4. When you are anxious, realize that anxiety comes from the capriciousness of the ego, and know this need not be. ²You can be as vigilant against the ego’s dictates as for them.
The ego has to control all around it. Do not take this as a “natural” part of existence. Let God BE in your life and trust that good things will be brought to you.
5. When you feel guilty, remember that the ego has indeed violated the laws of God, but you have not. ²Leave the “sins” of the ego to me. ³That is what Atonement is for. ⁴But until you change your mind about those whom your ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. ⁵While you feel guilty your ego is in command, because only the ego can experience guilt. ⁶This need not be.
Jesus and Father, through the wholly Spirit help us with this.
6. Watch your mind for the temptations of the ego, and do not be deceived by it. ²It offers you nothing. ³When you have given up this voluntary dis-spiriting, you will see how your mind can focus and rise above fatigue and heal. ⁴Yet you are not sufficiently vigilant against the demands of the ego to disengage yourself. ⁵This need not be. ~ end quote.
Be sad if that is how you feel.
Cry if you feel like it.
That is OKAY.
Just remember that it is only the remnants of the story of separation and could NOT BE REAL.
A NEW WORLD is DAWNING.
Let the old pass through you and emotional expression may be appropriate.
Find reasonable ways for frustration and disappointment to be witnessed and released. Be kind to yourself and others. Give yourself space to express and do not JUDGE yourself or others as being “stuck” wherever you are or whatever you may be feeling.

Till next time, God bless, debi.
