Accepting Our Strength

When you have felt the strength in you, which makes all miracles within your easy reach, you will not doubt.

This is accomplished very simply, as you instruct yourself that you are not a body. Faith goes to what you want, and you instruct your mind accordingly. Your will remains your teacher, and your will has all the strength to do what it desires. You can escape the body if you choose. You can experience the strength in you.

Remember that all sense of weakness is associated with the belief you are a body, a belief that is mistaken and deserves no faith. (A Course in Miracles W-pI.91.4:4;5:2-6;9:3)

In our daily experience it seems impossible to believe that we are not a body in a world of form. Every signal the body sends us seems to confirm that the body and the world are real. We seem to be separate from everything that is outside the body. Our minds seem to be separate from all “other” minds.

It is this belief in a false image of ourselves that must be let go. To do this we need to accept the help of the Holy Spirit, which offers us all the strength of God. We are not alone but we must be willing to accept help from beyond our beliefs. Accepting this help is accepting our strength.

Our practice today is to remind ourselves frequently that we are not a body and we want the Holy Spirit’s help to see the truth beyond the false images. We want to see the Love that is ever present. We want to accept the miracle that peels away the illusions of the belief in separation that we may see with the perfect clarity of Love. Thus we will remember our real strength that we share with God.
