This "Who is...?" series is very useful. It shows us where we fit, where we are, Who WE Are, in Creation. I find it useful in praying as in the Song of Prayer...JOINING with the love and joy of the Christ and through the Christ to the Father and hearing the Father's Voice when I need practical, terrestrial help. The Song of Prayer says prayer, at whatever level, finds it's answer at the level it is prayed/understood, so I guess it goes where it needs to go, and names aren't important, but it was bugging me whose name to call.
I am so glad you enjoyed this series. It was a challenge to write. The Song of Prayer is beautiful. I haven't read it in some time, but will be sure to do so soon! Thanks for your support.
This is helpful. I recently started on the Course and I am having a hard time with the wording in the first section. I am taking my time with the Lessons, yesterday I did Lesson 7 for a second time because I wasn't understanding it.
Thanks for sharing Elizabeth. The language in the Course is definitely not easy. It took me quite a bit to get comfortable with it. I often needed to reread sections a number of times, particularly in the text. I think it is OK to do workbook lessons more than once. I think it’s about getting what you can out of the workbook lesson. I don’t think perfection is the goal, rather I think it is about finding some peace of mind in the lesson engaged with. There is an earlier post in my Substack that offers some guidance for studying the Course. You might find that useful. Thanks again!
thank you so much. i’m reading it very slowly, only one or two pages at a time and I have to re-read so much. i appreciate knowing that other people did that too

I totally appreciate your efforts. As a writer, I know it had to be a lot of work. Very insightful too.
