ACIM Workbook Lesson #263
“My holy vision sees all things as pure.”
In the past, I would try to avoid those who have a tendency to rant and rave about the behavior of others. Now, although I do not seek out their company, I can listen to them and see beyond the appearance to the Truth. They may be berating their neighbor for some action or another, but I can see the call for Love and allow myself to say, “You may be right about that”, or something similar. I don’t need to agree or disagree, I do not need to correct their actions, but I do need to correct my perception. If they appear to be angry, I needn’t attempt to change that nor to love it, but I do need to change my thought and remember they are, in truth, only Love and Its reflection. “I do not need to love the appearance, I need to love the reality beyond the appearance.” (ACIM) There is a lovely innocence involved in seeing through the eyes of Spirit!
Mary Baker Eddy quote: “When we learn that error is not real, we shall be ready for progress, forgetting those things which are behind.” Science & Health Page 353:22-24
