August 30, 2014 - Quiet Beginnings

ACIM Workbook Lesson #242
“This day is God's. It is my gift to Him."

Starting my day with consecrated, spiritual thought allows intuition to be heard. I think of this as the beginning of "giving this day to God". Without that back-and-forth volley which is so easy to fall into when weighing the possibilities of my actions, I have silent communion with divine Mind. Quietness in the morning is the most important time for me. I'm not sure how people manage who must begin to speak to others when they first wake up. I feel the need for this centering before facing the cacophony of daily life. I have no ritual to these moments of quietude; no set prayers or by-rote actions, but simply a clearing of thought and acceptance of what comes. The practice of turning every thought away from worrying and wondering "what-if" is sufficient to supply me with everything I need to walk this path. And it's exciting to see what will unfold!

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“Emerge gently from matter into Spirit. Think not to thwart the spiritual ultimate of all things, but come naturally into Spirit through better health and morals and as the result of spiritual growth.”
