ACIM Workbook Lesson #13
“A meaningless world engenders fear.”
When we say no to Spirit, we believe that something outside — some cause other than divine Mind — is creating circumstances. We give this outside cause reality and make it and its effects real — but they are meaningless, and this false creation engenders fear. Today we realize that mind cannot create beyond itself and, by this realization, go beyond the fear we are creating in our confusion. Most of us who read these writings live in the United States, which is a country that drops a bomb on someone, somewhere, on an average of every 20 minutes. When I look at this fact and its effects, I feel dismayed. I am not attempting to find a way to accept this fear and what it stands for, but I am looking for a way to transcend this way of seeing the world and, thereby, bring meaning to the meaningless events created by the ego, or mortal mind. This day I will look toward the reality of Love for peace within myself, finding meaning there.
Mary Baker Eddy quote: “History teaches that the popular and false notions about the Divine Being and character have originated in the human mind.” Science & Health Page 357:19-21
