Rev. Paul was doing volunteer work last Sunday and this week, and will be doing the same tomorrow, Sunday 5/25. However, Jim will be facilitating the study group as he did last week. Thank you Jim!
Our apologies that Week 3 wrap-up is a little late.
May’s Theme: Resting in God: The Practice of Inner Peace
Week 3: Laying Down Burdens
Key Idea: We rest by releasing fear, worry, and the illusion of control, and allowing God’s peace to replace them.
In the hustle of daily life, how often do we find ourselves burdened by fears, responsibilities, and future worries? We try to control outcomes, make plans, fix problems—and in doing so, we forget the simplicity of resting in God.
This week’s guided meditation, “Laying Down the Weight” we simply make the conscious effort to offer our burden to the Light. The link to the meditation is included in the study guide PDF download available on our website and is shared at the start of the Sunday study group session.
Readings:
• Lesson 194: “I place the future in the Hands of God.” • Chapter 26, Section VIII: The Immediacy of Salvation
Watch Rev. Paul’s insights he shared in this week’s video.
5/25 Sunday’s Readings:
• Lesson 182: “I will be still an instant and go home.” • Chapter 31, Section VI: Recognizing the Spirit
Be sure to work with these readings with our monthly optional study guide with each week’s guided meditations. The guide includes points to consider, reflection and journal prompts!
Join us Sundays at 10:00 am Central Time on Zoom
NOTE: You can still download the study guide and listen to the linked meditations for your own personal study if you can’t join us live.
Our study groups are free, but a love offering donation helps us to continue our work. See study group information. You do not need to have the study guide to participate in the study group, as Rev. Paul will be facilitating the discussion and sharing the weekly meditation.
Please feel free to share any insights or questions you may have via our Facebook Group or Email Group. Your contributions enrich our collective learning experience.

Since you’re here… …we have a small favor to ask. More people are reading our posts, listening to our audios and watching our videos than ever before but far fewer are donating for it. As an all-volunteer ministry, you can see why we need to ask for your help. MiraclesOne provides ACIM resources freely however it takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe in encouraging others to practically apply the Course principles in their lives – because it might just make the one difference in your life. If everyone who reads, listens or watches and likes what we offer helps to pay for it we can continue to afford our expenses and keep our resources FREE to all ACIM Students. Monthly Donors receive free gifts in appreciation for their support.
