I began on Christmas Eve to sit with simple breathing, A Course in Miracles and personal inner listening.
This practice began in 1977 and has waned in the last several years of caring for grandchildren at some distance so needed to leave home by 3:30AM for several years.
I have changed my schedule the last few months, so now can take the time to sit at 5-6AM once again.
What I notice is that after studying ACIM workbook lessons for 16-17 years and relating to the materials in groups and other teaching and writing tools, I once again hear them, feel them and know them even more profoundly.
Yummy!
So very good to return to what is truly a great support for my spiritual path and calling!
I encourage you to return to what deeply inspires you and resonates in your heart and mind!
I invite you to join me in a daily practice using whatever resources and practice is right for you.
I support you in doing what lifts your mind to greater awareness of inner Truth.
I appreciate your willingness to listen within for your own personal inner guidance.
I invite those who want to begin ACIM lessons daily beginning Jan. 1, 2011 to join me.
Let me know and we can be partners in this return to this path of forgiveness, love and holy relationships.
I am inspired by being accountable to a group of people and will commit to sharing with you.
Yes, let me know if you would join me on email or perhaps in person occasionally.
Where we are joined, there is greater awareness and accountability.
Where we are joined, we can share the deepening of our awareness.
Where we are joined, we may experience increased willingness to listen within.
Where we are joined, we can enhance our miracle readiness and right perceptions.
My focus in this coming year is to Sanctify my Life.
That is to make everything Holy.
My classes and groups will focus on clearing away the detours, distractions, delays, disappointments and delusions which all interfere with natural Innocence and Holiness.
This feels absolutely essential as we enter 2011-Creating Heaven.
Each of us is solely response- able for changing our minds and our lives.
We each need a road map and navigation system we can use to find our way.
The beginning is the goal:
Where are we going?
What are we going to do when we get there?
I know I am here to use all that I have and all I am to create Heaven on Earth for all.
I know I am to be fully present and In Love with everyone all the time.
I know I am here to express the Joy I feel when I trust in Goodness and God.
I know my work is to clear the fear, so that I can live as a teacher of innocence.
Take time to listen within during this winter time.
Seek solitude and silence to rediscover your inner truth.
Experience the release of the past and enjoyment of the present.
Trust your higher Self to guide you through the coming year.
Loving you,
Betty Lue

The Week After Christmas
T’was the week after Christmas and all through the land
Things were all settled, it was all pretty bland.
The gifts put away, the sales all complete
Settled down by the tube in my favorite seat.
I had my awareness written down in my book
Had my insights, ideas and whatever it took.
The spiritual lessons had been easy to share
They were all filed away (I’m not really sure where).
When deep down inside me there arose such a clatter
It was really unfair. Now what was the matter?
Away from my chair I flew like a flash
I looked in the mirror and then came the crash.
My life was unsettled with nothing the same
And the worst of it all—there was no one to blame.
When what to my wondering eye should appear
But a glowing white light, from behind my left ear.
With a little old angel so lively and quick
I’d seen him before. I was going to be sick.
More rapid than eagles his pronouncements they came
And he whistled and shouted and called me some names.
“More action and faith and tolerance and trust
Now listen within and be responsible, you must.
To topple complacency and breach the fear wall
Now dash away, smash away, drop away all.”
As leaves caught up in a hurricane fly
All of my thoughts were thrown up to the sky.
And as they were jumbled and tumbled and swirled
I knew when they landed, it would be a new world.
And then in a twinkling, I felt it all start
The seeds of awareness awakening my heart.
As I came to my senses (picked myself off the floor)
I saw in my mind’s eye, a picture of more.
A world bathed in light, from the south to the north
With every one on it aware of his worth.
No one was waiting for others to do,
Or to fix or to heal or to make it all new.
Their eyes how they twinkled, their dimples how merry
When they each played their part, the world was easy to carry.
The smile on each mouth was drawn up like a bow
Shining laughter and love wherever they’d go.
The aura of kindness bespoke inner peace
Letting each individual experience release.
Oh the bright shiny faces, wherever you’d look
It seemed—to be willing was all that it took.
To start with ourselves, from deep down inside
To give our true gifts, not to withhold or hide.
With no blame, shame or guilt for our seeming mistakes,
A little forgiveness is all that it takes.
To clean up our world from inside to out
It was simple and happy and I wanted to shout.
Once I see the Christ presence in each person’s face
We all become one, with no distance or space.
I recalled in that moment just what my gift was
To love all of my brothers, with no “why” or “because”.
And I’m here to exclaim as I set myself free
I remember the truth—It all starts with me.
