ACIM Workbook Lesson #125
"In quiet I receive God's Word today."
Attention deficit disorder: ADD. Many who haven’t been diagnosed with this disorder often say they are afflicted with it. If you get right down to it, aren't we all? Doesn't it seem our "normal" state of mind wants to flit about from one topic to another, gathering steam as we go down all the avenues we are led in thought, as one triggers yet another? The thing I find unfortunate is that people really think they have no choice. As with anything else, it takes practice to calm thought. You have to want a quiet mind in order to attain one. I know I've said it before, but watch that first thought of the day. It can set the tone for everything which comes after it. Refusal to start the day thinking about worrisome things is a choice we have. Choose the quiet mind over the busy one, then choose again whenever needed. Sow meditation, nurture quiet, reap peace!!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“We must silence this lie of material sense with the truth of spiritual sense.”
