Are you too good for your home?!? ACIM Lesson # 272

How can illusions satisfy God’s Son? Has anyone seen the movie Happy Gilmore with Adam Sandler? It’s about a hockey player…who becomes a golfer to save his Grandma’s home. In one scene Happy (Sandler’s character) begins spewing expletives in anger at a ball that falls just short of going in the hole. Why didn't you go home?! He yells. That's your home! Are you too good for your home?! Answer me! ACIM Lesson 272, though slightly more civil and less curse-y, is begging us to do

Vote for Pollyanna! ACIM Lesson #271

Christ’s is the vision I will use today. This may be a surprise to you, Dear Readers, but I’ve been called a Pollyanna. Yup, a Pollyanna. Shocking. It’s true. I’ve been accused. Many times. Justifiably. Of seeing rainbows where there is really a tsunami. Of putting on a happy face on through a sad day. At times annoyingly so. I own it. And while I am simultaneously a fan of owning feelings, I truly believe, if we look for it, there is beauty in every situation. EVERY situatio

How to make a Universal Quilt. Prequel to ACIM Lessons # 271-280

What is the Christ? You may remember the phrase from ACIM-We are as God created us. What exactly does that mean, you might ask. Here’s my take. I like to think of life as a tapestry. Like a beautiful quilt. And while we all have different threads. Some shiny. Some golden. Some broken. We are all essential parts of the picture that is life itself. United in Source. United in the pieces of the Christ that live within us all. And the wonderful part? These pieces, these beautiful

Child-Like Vision. ACIM Lesson #270

I will not use the body’s eyes today. I am always amazed at children. Their sense of adventure. Their fearlessness. Their awesome ability to create worlds using just their imagination. Where I see a box, they see a castle. Where I see danger, they see discovery. Where I see lack, they see abundance. To a child a hug is more abundant than a million dollars. In fact, they usually can’t even conceptualize what a million dollars is. To a child a box is just as good as a castle.

Prepared to See. ACIM Lesson #269

My sight goest forth to look upon Christ’s face. My name is Estelle. And I am a chronic over-preparer. I frequently practice my presentations once. Twice. Perhaps, five-thousand times. I somehow think if I re-run a presentation or situation in my mind a ca-gillion times, I can control the outcome that happens. Oh my, not very spiritual of me, is it? Today I ask, instead, that Source bless my sight. In lieu of seeing the things that I think I need to do, that I step back in tr

Be. ACIM Lesson #268

Let all things be exactly as they are. Boooooo!!! Lesson 268. I’m a control freak! Ok, you got me ACIM. I DO criticize the world at times. Judge against the way things are. Try to make things go juuuust the way I think they should and cling to an outcome. And how’s that working out for you Estelle? asks ACIM. Hmmmmm…You got me! Recently I was bemoaning having too much work. I felt a little frantic. A bit discombobulated. I was juggling and fretting….so the Universe took it aw

A Breath Away. ACIM Lesson #267

My heart is beating in the peace of God. If you have seen my book about meditation, you know that I am a big fan of breathwork. BIG fan. It brings us peace. It helps return to center. And my theory is, shockingly, you do not have to have a formal meditation practice to do so (though it doesn’t hurt). You are just one breath away. A single inhale….And exhale. Try it. Feel better? Yup, I do. Lesson 267 says peace is as close as our very breath. A single heartbeat away. In every

Saviors in Human-Clothing. ACIM Lesson #266.

My holy Self abides in you, God’s Son. Yesterday was a day. Traffic was busy. The cats were having some animated ‘discussions’ with one-another. We were packing to go on a trip. I was late for work. It was basically chaos of the highest order. But then I saw a friend on my way in. He waved the biggest wave ever and yelled ‘Hi there young lady!’. (And I am not, BTW, a young lady). So cheerful. I kept walking and met another friend who was so excited by an upcoming presentation

Gently...GENTLY. ACIM Lesson #265

Creation’s gentleness is all I see. Did you really think you were going to escape the week without a cat story? Nay-nay my dear friends. I deliver. I am nothing if not consistent. Last night I was sleeping with my oldest cat-child, Punch. In the middle of the night bush-kitty, CJ, jumped up on the bed suddenly. MEOW! Said CJ LOUDLY. It startled Punch & out of a dead sleep. Punch began to growl. Obviously displeased. But I remained uncharacteristically calm. He didn’t mean to

The Surround Sound of Eternity. ACIM Lesson #264

I am surrounded by the Love of God. If I were Southern Baptist I might say Can I get an Amen. ACIM Lesson #264 is another one of those glorious Lessons where I feel the clouds part. The sunshine stream in on beams of light. And I truly feel the Love of God/Source surround us. Lesson 264 says there is no place where Source is not. When I am in line at the grocery store-God is. Where the baseboards meet the floor in a fit of dust-God is. Where my ego tries to tell me I’m not en

Ugly Crying on the Freeway. ACIM Lesson #263

My holy vision sees all things are pure. In an episode of the HBO series, Sex in the City (The Good Fight), the featured group of girlfriends talk about something mysterious called secret single behavior. Secret single behavior are the things you do when no one is around. Carrie, the lead character likes to stack saltines with jelly. Charlotte, her friend, examines every pore with a magnifying glass. Secret Single behavior-the things you do but you wouldn’t dare tell anyone y

Wish I Could Be...Part of THAT World. ACIM Lesson #262

Let me perceive no differences today. There is a lot of controversy going on in the world today. In truth, I tend to vibe a liiiitle shy of the dominant paradigm. I’m a card-carrying member of the rose-colored glasses club after all. (And proud of it, by the way). But sometimes, when I see the world arguing over things I just can’t fathom, I get discouraged. And I want to pretend that some parts of our humanity don’t exist. I tell myself I am above it. I say that this is not

The Magik in the Well. ACIM Lesson #261

God is my refuge and security. Jeffrey Wheeler is a favorite author of mine. He writes glorious fantasy books with beautiful characters on a Soul’s Journey. I love it. Some of his stories are centered in the concept of a citadel-a well of sorts. Deep within this well lies the waters of the fountain-the Source of all power and magik. When the characters look down into the well, it seems like a big drop. An endless sea of unknown danger. Like it would be suicide to drop within.

Free Man Walking. ACIM Preface to Lessons #261-270, What is the Body?

My neighbors have two lovely dogs. They love to roam around in their backyard. Playing. Barking. Frolicking. One of the dogs is a super big dog. He could easily jump the fence. Run away. But he chooses to stay put. He doesn’t even consider going outside of the boundaries of his existence. ACIM Preface to Lessons 261-70 reminds us that we are very much like this beautiful pup-living inside the fence our body creates. We put this fence up-a barrier-to ensure our safety. But our

Dragoons are not Always Friendly. Take Heed. ACIM Lesson #259

Let me remember that there is no sin. Recently I was coaching someone one-on-one. It was lovely. The person was lovely. But afterward my typical self-doubt starting creeping in. Raising its ugly dragon-head at me. Roaring that there was more I could have done. Keep in mind this wasn’t actual feedback. But I heard it anyway. Inside my head. Lesson 259 says that, much like my dragon-voice. Any voices in our heads that call us less than amazing are only thoughts that hide the tr

Be the Ball. ACIM Lesson #258

Let me remember that my goal is God/Source. I used to play volleyball. A lot. I would spend my weekends in the 110 degree heat index of Summer tooling around the grass. Sweating and gaining a thousand new freckles every minute. It was fun. I often played with wonderful friends. But my goal was to win. To gain that elusive trophy of glory. Affirming I was the best. At some point I stopped enjoying the game itself all together. Lost in the strategy of how to gain the next point

Your Purpose is Louder than the Vacuum Cleaner. ACIM Lesson #257

Let me remember what my purpose is. On days when the laundry needs done. The cats are waiting to be fed. The dishes done. I wonder about my purpose. Am I fulfilling it by doing all of these mundane chores? What am I missing while I am vacuuming the carpet? Is it important? Am I missing it? Lesson 257 says that no matter what I am doing my purpose waits. That the mundane chores of life are just tiny opportunities to see the light in all things. That even the dust particles ref

Goal! ACIM Lesson #256

God is the only goal I have today. I have mentioned in blog posts (https://www.estellekristy.com/post/busy-is-not-a-badge-of-honor) past that I maaaayyy have a busy brain. I love a good to-do list. And although crossing off my to-do’s never fails to give me a little thrill, it can also take me away from my truth when it drowns out that still small voice. Perhaps you know this voice-it is there when we are at peace in meditation. Or simply when we remember to take a breath in

Making Lemonade. ACIM Lesson #255

This day I choose to spend in perfect peace. Sometimes my ego believes I don’t have choice. That free will is a misnomer. That all of my choices are predetermined on the external. And that life is throwing me angry lemons instead of lemonade. It’s sour. It makes my disposition pucker. And in those moments, I don’t feel very peaceful. But Lesson 255 tells me this thinking is choking on seeds of unhappiness that were never mine to drink in. Where to find elusive peace in moment
