My sight goes forth to look upon Christ’s face.
Yesterday was a huge healing day for me. There were some situations in my life (from months ago) that needed to be cleaned up. I knew intuitively that I’d left a mess that for someone else to clean up – justifying with the old excuse “out of sight, out of mind” but I knew that eventually I’d have to go back to the original spot and clean it up myself.
You can’t get away from your own mind.
If you leave something undone, you will eventually have to go back and correct it and make it right.
This is what true forgiveness is. You dot every i and cross every t.
Your actions must become impeccable, and if you are stuck in your life, there is more than likely a blockage in you from something left undone from months or years ago.
It is my experience that you don’t have to find these messes by going to your past … they will keep popping up in your mind in the present.
Every time you think of a particular person or situation, you might start to get a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach. Something that feels wrong or bad.
So the day before yesterday (let’s back up here a bit), I drove to the Madison airport to pick up a Greta and it’s a 40-minute drive, which means I had lots of time to think. Lately I’ve been thinking of where to go, what to do, where to live. Everything has been really confusing to me.
So there I am, driving to the Madison airport, and in a flash I knew exactly what I needed to do. It had nothing to do with a living situation, or work, or money, or anything, I just suddenly could see THE BLOCK. I could see THE OBSTACLE. I could see THE ROCK in the middle of the river that was stopping the flow.
And then I knew exactly what I needed to do: I needed to have a conversation with a friend and to ask her for forgiveness. I’d been selfish and irresponsible in certain areas of my life, and it had directly hurt her.
It was crystal clear in my mind about what needed to be done and a tremendous peace came over me and the rest of the trip to Madison flew by in brilliant light.
THE ONLY THING GOING ON HERE IN THE WORLD IS THE HEALING OF YOUR MIND.
Look for places where you left a mess.
Look for places where you were irresponsible and selfish.
Look at where you might have to make a phone call or talk with someone in person and say you’re sorry.
If the mess is with someone who is no longer here in a body, then find that person in your mind and clean it up there. Ask for forgiveness.
Forgiveness is not ever about the other person. It’s always about you.
Forgiveness removes the blocks and obstacles. You begin to look upon everyone – including yourself – in a new way.
That’s yesterday’s lesson – MY SIGHT GOES FORTH TO LOOK UPON CHRIST’S VISION – and that is the journey, the path and the goal.
