“I am not a body. I am free.”

Today's idea that I am not a body is an intriguing thought to ponder! This idea is like a seemingly-unsolvable puzzle, one of those intricate knots with an object in the middle which you're trying to extricate. And then when you see the solution, you wonder what seemed so impossible about it! And if you put the puzzle away and don't look at it for a long time, you forget what you knew about it -- at least you forget until something reminds you of the answer. That's what these studies do for me: they remind me of what's been forgotten. "Mind has set me free from every error." Today I will look to divine Mind for discernment. Infinite intelligence is my heritage as a child of God. I pray to release all beliefs I have concerning reality, and allow inner knowing to show me Truth.

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
"I am the image and likeness of God; no mortal mind can confine this image in a mortal body, harm or touch it in any way, Mind has set me free from every error. Divine Love fills every avenue, flows through every channel and removes every obstruction."

[This is an excerpt from an article entitled "Body" by Mary Baker Eddy, filed in the Congressional Library, January 19, 1886, found by Lyda Sandifer Hord]
