ACIM Workbook Lesson #350

"Miracles mirror God's eternal Love. To offer them is to remember Him, And through His memory to save the world."

When a person lives far away from you and you have not communicated with them for quite some time, it’s easy to convince yourself that hard feelings from the past are dead and gone and you can rest easy knowing that you have forgiven them. But when they call you up unexpectedly and you hear their voice again, memories tend to flood back in and suddenly you remember exactly why it is you’re happy not to have spoken to them for 20 years! And so I am happy to read today’s topic and embrace the memory of divine Love rather than my ego-ridden memories of words and actions I thought had been released. I’ve reached the point in pondering the event where I’m smiling when I think of this dear old woman, and hopefully, very soon, I’ll be seeing her as I’ll be seeing myself: as an expression of Love, a thought of Mind, a whisper of Spirit.

Mary Baker Eddy quote:

“The miracle introduces no disorder, but unfolds the primal order, establishing the Science of God’s unchangeable law. Spiritual evolution alone is worthy of the exercise of divine power.” Science & Health Page 135:6-10
