The ego’s fundamental wish is to replace God. In fact, the ego is the physical embodiment of that wish. For it is that wish that seems to surround the mind with a body, keeping it separate and alone, and unable to reach other minds except through the body that was made to imprison it.
To be without a body is to be in our natural state. To recognize the light of truth in us is to recognize ourselves as we are. To see our Self as separate from the body is to end the attack on God’s plan for salvation, and to accept it instead. And wherever His plan is accepted, it is accomplished already. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 72, W-pI.72.2:1-3;9:3-6. See also ACIM Lesson 72 Insights.)
Today our practice is to remember we are eternal Spirit… Today our practice is to remember that we are not a body… We are free… We are still the eternal Spirit God created as His Son… We are Love’s Extension… We are one with the ever-present Beingness of God’s Love…
As we let ourselves remember this, we are able to feel the happiness, peace and joy that is inherent in our beingness as one with God’s Love. We enjoy today, and let our hearts be lifted as we open our minds and hearts to the Light of Truth in us.
