May 13, 2014 - Nothing is Lost

ACIM Workbook Lesson #133
"I will not value what is valueless."

"Groups of people who have shared spiritual Love are bound together for eternity." is a quote from Joel Goldsmith. These words float into my mind often. There are so many people who live in our little town whom I feel I've always known. One person who I immediately knew when I saw her is Sandy Starbird. She and her husband, Ken, are artists in the gallery I run. They moved to this little town in Arkansas from the west coast of the USA, without ever having been here before. They were led here and knew it was where they needed to be They were similarly attracted to Eureka Thyme, the art gallery which has provided them with a home for their incredibly original works of art. The ACIM workbook lesson today tells us to not value what is valueless. To discern what is valueless we are asked if it is changeable and if we feel any form of guilt surrounding it. My friendship with Ken and Sandy, their relationship with each other, is true Love in its purest form. I'm beginning to understand this Oneness which I've talked about for years. The Love which we all share as the experience of God is everywhere, and I value that recognition. I don't need to worry about losing anything to change, because how can I lose something which is not real? And on the flip side of that coin, how can I lose anything which is real? 

Mary Baker Eddy quotes:
“Everything good or worthy, God made. Whatever is valueless or baneful, He did not make,--hence its unreality.”
