I Want To See

ACIM Workbook Lesson #27: "Above all else, I want to see."

Today someone said to me, "There are only two powers, and she’s chosen the wrong one." Wow. Once we have split power into a loving God and Its evil twin, some seriously hard-to-let-go images have taken hold in our mind. So when I'm thinking of today's lesson throughout the day, I won't concentrate on the myriad of ways we've constructed to cloud our vision, but I'll ask to see with true sight, as God sees. If I wonder how that view can be mine, I'll go to the definition of God given us by Mary Baker Eddy, which is quoted below after a passage from a T. S. Eliot poem, “Little Gidding”. “We shall not cease from exploration, / And the end of all our exploring / Will be to arrive where we started / And know the place for the first time.”

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“Question.--What is God?

Answer.--God is incorporeal, divine, supreme, infinite Mind, Spirit, Soul, Principle, Life, Truth, Love." Science & Health Page 465:6-8
