Today’s review idea:
I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.
All things are lessons God would have me learn.
Nothing is wasted. All things are lessons. Our lessons that we receive through forgiveness are healing because the upsets go away through the recognition of truth. ACIM says the light of truth dispels the darkness. Events and circumstances are no longer perceived by what is going in our conditioned minds. The false thoughts we have about ourselves and others are no longer believed or seen as relevant.
Haven’t we all had a painful experience? What determined that the experience was painful? In tonight’s TED talk hosted by Jacquelyn, the story was relayed about a boy who had anxiety attacks. The psychiatrist asked the boy to turn around in circles until things were topsy-turvy for him and then asked how this was different than his anxiety attacks. Things aren’t just a little different than our beliefs say they are. Things are massively different. These are God’s lessons, truth’s lessons. A healed mind sees altogether differently. The mind is returning to its true way of being. Peace of mind is an enormous change for most of us.
Lesson 193 asked us to pause each hour and look at the upsets that occured in the previous hour. Let’s stop the upset in its tracks. Let’s not make any exceptions. Let’s let go of the upset. Let’s forgive through self-inquiry, through right reason, through rest, accept, and trust. Let us undo the conditioning that appears to be us. Let’s let all things be lessons God would have us learn.
