    God Says Yes to Me

    "God Says Yes to Me" is a poem by Kaylin Haught (1947-2018). In this episode I use this poem as a jumping off point to explore our relationship with God, and question the conventional view of God as judgmental and punishing. Spoiler alert: we got it all wrong. "God Says Yes to Me" I asked God if it was okay to be melodramatic and she said yes I asked her if it was okay to be short and she said it sure is I asked her if I could wear nail polish or not wear nail polish and she said honey she calls me that sometimes she said you can do just exactly what you want to Thanks God I said And is it even okay if I don't paragraph my letters Sweetcakes God said who knows where she picked that up what I'm telling you is Yes Yes Yes —Kaylin Haught Welcome back to I Rest in God.

    Continuity

    In this episode I discuss a poem by Helen Schucman from her book, The Gifts of God. Helen channeled A Course in Miracles, and scholars believe she channeled this book of poems as well. This particular poem — "Continuity" — is about the continuity of the Christ light. Because our very nature is eternal holiness, we have a responsibility to uplift other people and give them expressions of love. This is the message at the heart of the Course, and is reflected beautifully in "Continuity" as well. This is the second episode in a two episode series. Welcome back to I Rest in God.
