Before I read the lesson for today, these thoughts came to mind:
It does not matter what the ego wants. For its desire is to separate, to make itself god and ruler. It would prevent the truth from being remembered so that illusions would dissolve. Illusions by definition are false, so what the ego wants is untruth and therefore meaningless. To the deluded mind then, it does matter what the ego wants and follows its master obediently. To the waking mind, the ego’s goals and desires are recognized as senseless, wearying trials that can have no reality.
When 2 minds join together to seek the truth, the ego system is undone.
The only desire of the Heart is to return to Love, which is to waken from the dream (illusion) of separation.
Next time I am tempted with some trivial gift of the ego, I remember that this (distraction) is not what I really want.
WB 246 To love my Father is to love His Son.
I will accept the way You choose for me to come to You, my Father. For in that will I succeed because it is Your Will. and I would recognize that what You will is what I will as well, and only that. And so I choose to love Your Son. Amen.
