The Bridge to Forgiveness

ACIM Workbook Lesson #81
Review: "I am the light of the world" and "Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world."

I am currently revisiting a passion from the past: duplicate bridge. I think one of the reasons I have always enjoyed card games is because of the insight they offer into personalities. If you want to really get to know someone, either play cards with them or clean their house — and I know which one I would choose! Today’s lesson review points me toward two things I will utilize in my visits to the card table: extending peace to all and letting go of my belief in separation, otherwise known as forgiveness. This is wonderful practice in releasing the thought that I have a special, specific identify that puts me on another level, either higher or lower, from everyone else. Seeing myself in others can be a sobering activity, but it’s one I’m willing to undertake. What fun life is when I allow it to be a flow of Love and acceptance rather than a battle of beliefs!

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
"Self-forgetfulness, purity, and affection are constant prayers."
