How delightful it was to welcome four new people who were
attending this meeting for the first time: Melanie, Francis, Amber, and Ozz.
Cindi told us about Echo Bodine's comments on the
afterlife in Denver on Saturday. Her former neighbor of thirty years ago vouches for her genuine ability to gain spiritual information. It
seems many of us missed a very interesting program.
Four enthusiastic voices enlivened the discussion lead by
Eric on our choice of two experiments in the "Love" Lesson, Chapter
13. The first is described from page
132-133. Experiment:
Make an effort to
experience the potential within you to love life. Try to have a feeling of trusting life. Look beneath those experiences that seem
"ugly or heavy, or hard" for
deeper meaning and the hand of the divine. Record instances in which you are able to see life in this way.
Continuing on, the next experiment is described and laid
out on page 134 as follows:
Select and write down the name of one person whom
you frequently view as an enemy, a rival or a troublesome person. Then write
down the good qualities that you can see in him. If you cannot think of any, spend several
days observing him In your daily life until you find something (good) you can
write down. Finally, spend at least a
week thinking of that person in terms of these good qualities and acting on
that perception. Keep a record of your
actions.
We read and discussed
two sections in ASFG, Chapter 12, on "Love": "The Test of Love" (different editions' pages are
numbered differently) and "Love is Giving." Next week we are ready to
begin reading "Divine Love Passes Understanding."
It was an excellent meeting. In hopes you will all join
us for the meeting next Monday.
Lovingly submitted,
Sylvia
