ACIM Workbook Lesson #233
“I give my life to God to guide today."
There are so many examples I could give to illustrate today's lesson. In order to "give my life to God to guide today", it is imperative to stop micro-managing the details of daily life. Recently a number of art galleries had planned to go in together to contract for a rather expensive bit of advertising. At the last minute, one of the galleries stated they were not going to participate. Many hours of planning had gone into getting this put together, and it appeared it was not going to happen. When I was told of this situation, my response was that we needed to hold a positive outlook about this and know it was for the best. Within the hour, the gallery which was backing out indicated that they wanted a larger ad than we had contracted for, and they then volunteered to pay the difference in cost. Wow! When we leave behind mortal mind and listen to divine Mind, it's always a win-win situation!
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. The power of the human will should be exercised only in subordination to Truth; else it will misguide the judgment and free the lower propensities. It is the province of spiritual sense to govern man.”
