ACIM Workbook Lesson #209
Central Theme: “I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.” Review: #189 “I feel the Love of God within me now.”
During my lifetime, I've seen oppression of various types evaporating. I admit that there are more walls waiting to fall — but just look how far we've come! The strides I, personally, have made in releasing preconceived notions about people who seem different from me are huge! A man told me that he was afraid to come to Eureka Springs. Of course, I asked him why. He said if we were having one of our "diversity" weekends he didn't want to be here. He assured me he had nothing against gay people, but he didn't want it “rubbed in his face”. This is a learned behavior of prejudice on his part and has nothing to do with the way he felt when he came out of the womb into this life. As we release what we have come to believe, all those things that we’ve been taught to think, we open the way for divine Love to guide us. Love truly is the liberator!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“The history of our country, like all history, illustrates the might of Mind, and shows human power to be proportionate to its embodiment of right thinking. A few immortal sentences, breathing the omnipotence of divine justice, have been potent to break despotic fetters and abolish the whipping-post and slave market; but oppression neither went down in blood, nor did the breath of freedom come from the cannon's mouth. Love is the liberator.”
