ACIM Workbook Lesson #176
Central Theme: "God is but love and therefore so am I."
Review of: #161 "Give me your blessing, holy Son of God."
#162 "I am as God created me."
While playing in my flower garden this evening, my neighbor was washing his car with his radio turned up all the way. I was reminded of how music with lyrics is mesmerizing and quite an effective form of brainwashing! It easily drowns out the "still, small voice" of inner knowing. As a student of Christian Science, I am learning to turn thought away from that which I do not want to be a part of me. My years spent as a court reporter showed me that I'm a mental sponge. Many times, after listening to testimony about disease, typing it, proofreading it, I would then have those very symptoms myself. And so I practice keeping thought in line with what I want to experience in my life. When I'm riding in the car, I prefer the company of Wayne Dyer or Eckhart Tolle or someone I can have a stimulating interaction with! Today I will be super-aware of what I'm bringing into my consciousness.
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
"Hold thought steadfastly to the enduring, the good, and the true, and you will bring these into your experience proportionably to their occupancy of your thoughts."
Science & Health Page 251:4-7
