Question Values

ACIM Workbook Lesson #306
“The gift of Christ is all I seek today.”

To learn this course requires willingness to question every value that you hold. To allow the sun to shine into your mind, to allow grace to be your natural state, to learn this course and have your mind healed from shadows and fear and limitation, requires you to be willing to question every value you hold. We tend to think it’s a good thing to hold strong opinions on any number of things, like politics. It may seem I’m saying we shouldn’t work for social reform, that we shouldn’t stand up to wrong-doers, that we should become the proverbial doormat. I think that giving up the things which make us angry, the things for which we become fighting mad, enables us to open ourselves to this gift of the Christ, this Love which guides us to do meaningful work in ways we haven’t realized, because strong mindsets were hiding them. I think it will be an interesting exercise to take note of the thoughts I have which keep me from the gift of divine Love. I hope you’ll join me!
