Together, We Light the Way

ACIM Lesson 13 2025

A meaningless world engenders fear.

Because I think I am in competition with God.
I project what I want to see and then I perceive its meaning. One might wonder why it is that we so often perceive what causes anxiety and here in this lesson, Jesus explains this. We rush to give it meaning before God can do so. We are so determined to be our own creators that we will suffer anything to prove the impossible.

As soon as I read this lesson, I felt my heart lift a little. I have recently had a difficult situation in my life and while I know I am the one that has made it feel difficult, I keep doing it. I think that maybe this will be the lesson that helps me change my mind once and for all about this.

Since I am determined to see this situation differently, the ego mind wants to solve the problem by changing the narrative. I want to solve the problem by letting it be and waiting to see the meaning God writes on it.
