“Is he the Christ? O yes, along with you. His little life on earth was not enough to teach the mighty lesson that he learned for all of you. He will remain with you to lead you from the hell you made to God. And when you join your will with his, your sight will be his vision, for the eyes of Christ are shared. Walking with him is just as natural as walking with a brother whom you knew since you were born, for such indeed he is. (M88)”
Affirmation: “May I walk with Christ, my brother, today.”
Reflections:
A quite comforting passage, this indicates that Jesus has nothing that we too are not meant to have. He has just reached Home sooner, and therefore is in a better position to help us do the same.
We too are part of the Christhood. We have not assumed our place yet (at least most of us have not), but the time is at hand when we will. Studying the Course is our way Home. Other pathways are valid also, but we have chosen the Course, and it has been meant for us.
This passage indicates that we have walked with Jesus since we were born; we just have not been aware of this blessing. Let us now be aware of this blessing.
Prayer:
Dear Father/Mother,
May I learn today what it is to walk closely with Christ. He has indicated that he will be with us always. I claim that promise today.
Thank You for helping in so many ways. Sometimes the way seems long, and other times I am comforted that the way to You is short. May I rest in Your presence today.
Amen.
