ACIM Workbook Lesson #149
Review of: #137 "When I am healed I am not healed alone." #138 "Heaven is the decision I must make." The main thought to hold to in this review: “My mind holds only what I think with God.”
I received and am using my “new leg”! My first reactions were not good. I knew it would be hard work to get used to it and do the physical therapy they wanted me to do, and I rebelled, mentally. Although I was willing to be compliant with everyone’s requests, my heart wasn’t in it. And so I found the prosthetic to be heavy and hot and unwieldy and I didn’t want to have anything to do with it. Suddenly, I realized what I was doing. What had happened to my Pollyanna attitude? So I changed my thought. Where I had been thinking of it as heavy, I now see it as protective and secure. The heat and confinement of it is now a cozy, swaddled feeling. The unwieldiness of it is just another opportunity to exhibit beauty and grace, perhaps not in a traditional way, but it’s a fun challenge! What a difference this has made in my progress! After all, “heaven is the decision I must make.”
