Message: “God’s Will for you is perfect happiness because there is no sin, and suffering is causeless.” (W-pI.101.6:1) What a statement. Don’t we live in a world of suffering? Doesn’t everyone have problems? Actually, ACIM says the answer is no. My inner Teacher tells me this book is correct. I conclude I have needlessly decided to suffer. Who wrote the script of my life? I did along with the so-called problems. The Holy Spirit tells me that I made up the ideas of fear and guilt. Only I can decide to get rid of them. Jesus says, “I know fear is not real, but you do not.” ACIM is about getting rid of the barriers to Love. The belief in guilt, fear, the desire for anger and grievances are my barriers, not just to love but happiness. These barriers have served the purpose of keeping me unaware of Reality. When I made the decision to think of myself as something other than the perfect, whole oneness of God, I took on the persona of a limited, needy self — a self that is lacking in love, security, and took on specialness needs. I was convinced that having my specialness needs met was my path to happiness. I found myself dealing with the same issues year after year. Playing with this limited self, I felt righteous in being upset, and unconsciously creating suffering for myself. I believed my happiness would be achieved if the people or situations were different. The Holy Spirit corrected me, saying these people and situations are my classroom that I want and need. Jesus says what the body’s eyes see is an illusion. He also said not to deny what the body’s eyes see. It’s a clear indication of how my mind thinks and what needs to be healed. Until I was willing to see the false beliefs about my true Self, I was stuck. https://www.pathwaysoflight.org/index.php/Miracles_News/full_article/11288
