Recently these thoughts were brought to my awareness.
Stop attacking the body for what it did not do.
The body is a wholly neutral thing—whose purpose do I use it for? Do I use it for love or for illusion? What is in my mind will be extended or projected, it is always one or the other. Am I extending love or projecting fear? What am I choosing right now?
If I am sad, I have chosen fear, the false image that I have made. This is a mistake which only needs correction, yet I must give it to the One whose only function is correction, I cannot correct it myself. In this line of “thinking” I am simply following a pattern that is worn, shabby and not fruitful. This is where I must be willing to choose again. Will I relinquish the meaningless thoughts that I made, so that reality can take their place?
What do I want to come of this day or this lesson? I must set the goal first.
The value of deciding in advance what you want to happen is simply that you will perceive the situation as a means to make it happen. You will therefore make every effort to overlook what interferes with the accomplishment of your objective, and concentrate on everything that helps you meet it. T.17.VI.
