ACIM Workbook Lesson #342 "I let forgiveness rest upon all things, For thus forgiveness will be given me."
Our interconnectedness is shown to us everyday, in many ways. This statement in today's ACIM lesson is worth pondering: “The world goes with us on our way to God." We believe we can hide our emotions and thoughts from others, simply by not saying anything. Where did we ever get that idea? I guess it's because we have spent so many years not utilizing our innate intuitive, telepathic talents. In an episode of the "Dog Whisperer", there was a dog fixated on attacking its own image in a mirror. This was not its only aggressive behavior, and the dog's person was afraid that it would attack someone or another animal when they were outside. How did Cesar Milan stop this dog's aberrant behavior? By calming its owner. This woman was constantly in a state of fear and worry, and the dog was mirroring her tense behavior. At first she had to pretend she was calm because she didn't know how to be that way! But as she watched the changes in her dog, she began to understand that her feelings and thoughts were being passed to not only her dog, but to everyone around her. And so it is that "the world goes with us on our way to God", whether we realize it or not!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“When we fully understand our relation to the Divine, we can have no other Mind but His, — no other Love, wisdom, or Truth, no other sense of Life, and no consciousness of the existence of matter or error.”
