We Are Rulers of Our Thought

ACIM Workbook Lesson #236 “I rule my mind, which I alone must rule."
I know someone who often says, You can't help what you think; it's what you do with those thoughts that matters. Unfortunately, this person is miserable in her circular thinking, going over and over events which are distressing to her, telling herself again and again that it's god's plan and she must abide by it. Whew! Today's lesson is teaching us we do have a choice in what goes through our mind. We are the rulers of our thought and have the ability to choose, to turn fear upside down and let it go. In accepting the gift of Truth from divine Mind, there can be no choice between being right or being kind—after all, Love is all there is!


Mary Baker Eddy quote: “God's thoughts are perfect and eternal, are substance and Life. Material and temporal thoughts are human, involving error, and since God, Spirit, is the only cause, they lack a divine cause. The temporal and material are not then creations of Spirit. They are but counterfeits of the spiritual and eternal.” Science & Health with Key to the Scriptures Page 286:21-27
