Breaking the Hold of Distress

 


Let it go. Just breathe. We are advised to do these things when learning how to break the hold of distress and open ourselves to peace. It took me years to realize that someone or something wasn't "making" me upsetit was my perception and interpretation and reaction to things which caused these feelings. Even with this realization, it's easy to get caught up in the craziness of the world. When I find myself becoming agitated about anything, I will remind myself to "let all the world be blessed with peace through us." [ACIM Lesson #360] After all, I can't change anything but my own self, and how wonderful that it’s the most important thing to do!


"Let us learn of the real and eternal, and prepare for the reign of Spirit, the kingdom of heaven,—the reign and rule of universal harmony, which cannot be lost nor remain forever unseen." Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 208:20-24
