Lesson 276 – The Word of God is given me to speak.

Commentary (full lesson beneath commentary)

And so it is.  I lean back into my meditation and am willing to know myself as God’s Word, God’s Light.  For a little while, seemingly nothing.  Then … a rhythmic expanding of “me” … like a sunburst widening and unwidening, expand, slightly contract, expand more, slightly contract … very pleasant, effortless.  And next … speed, a sense of speed, speed with pleasure–no fear.  “I” am still in shadow–none of this is happening in Light … yet.  And then I “hear”:  You are as pure and holy as Your Father.  You are the Word of God.  The “hearing” comes in the form of feeling–it is a felt-sense of knowing the meaning of these words.  And there is nothing more to say.

LESSON 276

The Word of God is given me to speak.

What is the Word of God?   “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.”  And thus did God become the Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he created.  This the Word His Son did not create with Him, because in this His Son was born.  Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is given us.  Deny we were created in His Love and we deny our Self, to be unsure of Who we are, of Who our Father is, and for what purpose we have come.  And yet, we need but to acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall our Self.

Father, Your Word is mine.  And it is this that I would speak to all my brothers, who are given me to cherish as my own, as I am loved and blessed and saved by You.
