ACIM Workbook Lesson #145 Review of: #129 "Beyond this world there is a world I want." #130 "It is impossible to see two worlds." The main thought to hold to in this review: “My mind holds only what I think with God.”
The changes we have witnessed in our lifetime have been exciting and — to take a phrase from the ‘70s — mind blowing! Decades ago, when we were told about the Age of Aquarius and, more recently, when 2012 was explained as a shift in consciousness, I'm not sure we recognized there would be any real change in our lives. Those who are looking for material reasons to explain the shifts in everything from politics to weather, are feeling helpless and overwhelmed. Looked at from a different perspective, we see changes are necessary in order to facilitate the realization of this new earth which we are ready to embrace. As with any shift in thought, some people are afraid and working to keep the old ways, but it is impossible to "see two worlds”. For this reason, I choose Love!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“During this final conflict, wicked minds will endeavor to find means by which to accomplish more evil; but those who discern Christian Science will hold crime in check. They will aid in the ejection of error. They will maintain law and order, and cheerfully await the certainty of ultimate perfection.”
Science & Health Page 96:31-4
Its so interesting to me how Christian Science, although sharing so many of the ideas of ACIM, still has a different flavor, a mature and settled knowing of these truths. I can really see the Christian Scientists I know cheerfully awaiting the certainty of ultimate perfection, at peace with the knowledge that this is so. I find myself at peace just contemplating this.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you describe this, Cassandra. Beautiful -- and I feel it is true.
