Divine Messages: A Journey Through the Workbook for Students
March 6 - Lesson 65

 

Lesson 65 - My only function is the one God gave me.  

   The idea of the old junk drawer came to mind today. You know that drawer, all the little what-nots and whatcha-ma-callits and even yes, old keys. Yes, you know those keys, the ones to the car that you sold 15 years ago, the keys to locks that you don't know even know where they are, your old high school locker combination, old apartments and homes; all the old keys cluttering up the drawer along with everything else. All these only hold keys to the past, the memories of experiences that are now faint.

 

   Today, I am offered another key that I have carried along with me all this time and did not even realize that it was in my possession. This key of light will open the door that I have held shut in my mind and I will see that the darkness that I thought was behind this door is gone. It never existed but in my mind. What the Holy Spirit has for me is only to help free me from possessing and obsessing about the old keys in my hand. Through His guidance, the way is made clear for me. Behind the door is only peace. It is for me to “Accept this key to freedom from the hands of Christ Who gives it to you, that you may join Him in the holy task of bringing light." T-14.II.7:8. 

 

   That is what forgiveness is. It is the key to peace, the key to happiness.  With this awareness, I will be motivated to clean out the junk drawer that is in my mind. It takes persistence and determination to gently toss away the old, blessing it for what it was and what it has meant, appreciating the lesson and moving forward. As I remove each unneeded thought, the golden key of peace will shine more radiantly. I will appreciate it more. I will want to use it more. And so I shall.
