We know we’ve been delaying. We know the forgiveness work is waiting. We know that escape from pain is actually possible.
And yet we keep putting it off.
The self-betrayal that hurts the most is the delay we choose with our eyes wide open.
A Course in Miracles Chapter 16 tells us: “Delay will hurt you now more than before, only because you realize it is delay and that escape from pain is really possible.”
We’re so entrenched in the thought that forgiveness won’t work for us because we’re especially bad, especially wrong, especially unworthy. We get attached to this idea: “Spiritual healing works for others, but not for me.” When we believe something like that, we gather the evidence. It’s easy to find evidence when the ego interprets everything as proof of what it already believes.
But here’s the truth: this inner work is not for the timid. It takes great courage, strength, and willingness.
It also takes the decision that our happiness matters more than our excuses.
Anyone who makes that decision will receive extraordinary support. They will have mighty companions to go with them in the visible and the invisible. This I know.
The older I get, the more I feel like my true Self, and the happier I am.
My happiness isn’t conditional anymore.
It isn’t circumstantial. I don’t have to wait for it. I can have it right now.
The period of disorientation that comes with deep forgiveness is far shorter than the time it took to fix our minds on illusions. Spiritual practice saves time – real time, the kind we can never get back.
A whole new way of being does emerge on the other side. More peaceful. More harmonious. More joyful. A sense of dread that simply falls away, replaced by something steady and warm and true.
That new way of being is available to every single one of us. Not someday. Not when we’ve earned it. Now.
The people in my Masterful Living Program who’ve been doing the practices and using the tools are really seeing the benefits. It’s spectacular what they’re accomplishing – and they’re realizing they can do it.
Our FREE Forgiveness Workshops are a wonderful place to spark miraculous healing.
Why delay our happiness anymore?

NEW ACIM PODCAST EPISODE: I Am Healed – Not I Will Be Healed Are you still saying “I will be healed” – and wondering why healing never arrives? In this episode, I share something I’ve been practicing for nearly 20 years that changed everything for me: a small word change in how I pray. I explore Chapter 26, Section 9 of A Course in Miracles – “For They Have Come” – and what it means that our healing has already arrived, that we don’t have to wait. I also get honest about my own journey from believing I was evil and unredeemable to feeling lit up with love. And I share why the people who treated me the most cruelly may have actually helped me awaken. If you’ve been waiting for something to change, this episode might show you it already has. We’re rising up!
