The Healing Power of Writing

Hi! Welcome to the Joy of Miracles.

To write is to uncover, to unhide, to bring to light, and express what is within. To share is the end of all private thoughts, all shame, all guilt, all pain and separation. Here is all Joy found at last! Writing helps us to repeat, focus, choose, and remember ideas. The purpose of this writing is healing for all of us.

This blog is inspired by "A Course in Miracles"and The Work of Byron Katie. You are invited to share your comments by clicking on the word "comment" at the end of each post. If you scroll way down there's a little info about me and also an archive of past writing you can view by clicking on the title. Thanks so much for visiting...

empty


emptiness is my Home

not knowing is  my Home


here am i free of all imagined ideas

i made up


here am i free of "me"


here is All given


only an empty mind/hand


has room to receive




and Joy/Abundance


rushes in





gentleness

gentleness 


is everything i love


today we take away the cross

there is no more need

to take a body

which isn't ours/us

and nail it to a cross



nothing is accomplished

Spirit remains always

the gentleness it is

Spirit smiles
so lovingly
on all it sees


Joy is shining on all the hills
and valleys of our mind

where the body is not our home
it doesn't matter if it falls

where the body is not our home
is all happiness

the resurrection is simply remembering
we are not a body
we are free

gentleness
 is everything i love

Joy

clarity

the purpose of everything

is joy:

the untangling of our thought


to leave the tangled backroads

the convoluted thinking

by which we arrived at this viewpoint


why wait for Heaven?
the Course/our Happiness asks us

it cheerfully sings!

Baby!
happiness is now!

can't you see it?
dear Love,
stop messing around in that crap
Jesus Christ!
there's some Joy going on!
get your butt over here!
I LOVE YOU!

what is in front of your face
is your mind

what do you want to see/think right now?

Joy: gratitude for all THAT IS 

or 

fear:  focusing on WHAT IS NOT/what is missing/lacking/the future
unreality 
illusion
imagination

the Light is  here NOW

focus on your kindnesses
and not on your mistakes

focus on your brother's kindnesses
and not on his mistakes

focus on WHAT IS YOURS RIGHT NOW!

ALL JOY IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH IS YOU!


thank You so much for being,
love,
Joy

straight jacket

what do you believe is possible

in this moment?








this is your world!






today we let go

of our belief
our story
our picture
our straight jacket

of what is possible
in this moment

and  we ask for a miracle instead

we ask that our idea
be taken from us 
by the grace of God



and we open

to unknown
unimagined
unconceived
possibilities



we open

to Reality beyond this world



where there is no end

to what is possible 

right NOW

love, Joy

show me!

we've been wrong about everything!

none of this is true

it's simply a charade

a wild thought

a story--a picture of a belief--acted out


now i see it

i would cherish those beliefs no more
i would let all beliefs go
and allow
what  is

allow all Joy to be revealed
to be shown to me

i would see no more shag carpet :-)))

i would choose a clean floor
for this play
wholly spotless
scrubbed clean
without a speck remaining
of what i made up



take away my glasses
that i can see without distortion
only that which is real
what i did not make up
Joy

i do not know the Joy i am
i do not know the Joy all is
i do not understand anything at all
i know nothing
i have no reference point for anything



this is safety
to finally 
lay down
everything you have 
ever
held

how else could we ever feel Light?

hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah for grace!

megalove, 
Joy

behind us

we're not doing the thinking,

we're being thought.  (byron katie)


we're being thought

by Joy

ultimately





let it be


see what is



i am cleaned out
from the inside out

from the bottom upward

we let thoughts of God rise/surface
to our awareness

we take off the lid
of everything we believe--
all shoulds, needs, wants


and let the truth of Joy

the truth of Laughter

the truth of reality

simply bubble up


a brand new space opens



delight!

About Me

My photo
I have been a student of A Course in Miracles since 1986. It has helped me tremendously to be a happier person by helping me change my perception of everything. I have found writing to be very helpful in the process of practicing, experiencing, and living the ideas in the Course. In 2006 I started sharing inspiration from the Course with a friend. Now it is a joy to share it with everyone. In 2009, The Work of Byron Katie found me at a woman's group. The Work is a way to identify and question your stressfuI beliefs. I dove right in and in April 2013 became a Certified Facilitator of The Work of Byron Katie. I work with people privately and offer online classes. Please visit www.joyofthework.com for more information. I also still occasionally lead the 11am Sunday Gathering at the Rocky Mountain Miracles Center in Denver.
