Reflecting Love

ACIM Workbook Lesson #234

“Father, today I am Your Son again.”

Once again, I read this topic differently than it is written: Love, today I Am your reflection again. Seeing ourselves as we really are reminds me of a sweet little old lady who used to live up the street. Margaret had lived alone for more than a decade and had taken all the mirrors out of her house. When some other neighbors and I began to help her with housekeeping chores and other things, someone put a mirror on the wall in her bathroom. When she first saw it, she got very upset and began trying to pull it off the wall and, when that didn’t work, tried to break it. She had not seen herself in so many years that she couldn’t face what she saw. Many of us feel the same way about seeing ourselves in a spiritual light. We have become so accustomed to thinking of ourselves as less than, as separate from the beauty of Love, that it’s difficult to accept our spiritual Self. We may have a tough time releasing our beliefs and simply Being. Let’s be gentle with ourselves and see what we find when we release what we think we are! Namasté ~~~
