When I was first studying the Science of Mind teachings of Ernest Holmes, I took great comfort in his teachings about Spirit’s progressive nature.
There are times when I used to feel like I was regressing. I was in the part of my healing experience where I was re-experiencing the old patterns in painful ways. I’d think that something is wrong with me, and that I wasn’t really making progress. I’d get down on myself and feel like a failure.
Those times of feeling like I was regressing would be so difficult. I’d be so filled with judgment about myself. My energy would just deflate and I’d want to self-medicate to escape.
Ernest Holmes clarity about Spirit’s progressive nature really helped me to comprehend that even though it felt like I was regressing, that it wasn’t even possible because God’s very nature is progressive and since I’m part of God, it’s my nature too.
Sure, sometimes it feels like we’re taking steps backwards, but here’s why: we’re reviewing the patterns of the past and the beliefs based on decisions we made in the past. We’re reviewing. Reviewing and re-evaluating something is often felt like experiencing it anew, but we’re actually not.
It can feel like we’re repeating the same exact things again and again, because we’re evaluating all aspects and learning from every morsel.
AND …
We can decide to let Spirit be the teacher instead of experience. Hello?
I found that when the temptation to judge myself and then feel like I wasn’t making progress or that I was backsliding, I had a way out if I wished to take it.
I could tell myself:
God’s nature is progressive and so is mine.
I am rising in Love!
This spiritual practice helped me to move into gratitude and lift my vibration so I could see, hear, feel and know more clearly that I AM fully progressive by my very nature.
Spirit is not regressive. It just doesn’t make sense.
Only the ego is regressive.
Spirit is inherently expanding into greater expressions and so are we, whether we know it or not.
There are no steps backwards anymore.
Only onwards and upwards, rising in Love!
WOO HOO!

MY LATEST ACIM PODCAST EPISODE: my topic is Perception is a Choice. Misperception is a cause of great suffering in this world. We often feel that life is happening to us, but that’s not the case. This basic teaching in ACIM is deeply healing when we apply it and have a willingness to change our mind. In this episode Jennifer shares her experience of moving out of the habit of choosing suffering and choosing to listen to the Voice for God. Transformation happens when we can make a higher choice. We’re in this together and we can lean upon each other!
