ACIM Workbook Lesson #22
"What I see is a form of vengeance."
One of the definitions for vengeance is: "Punishment inflicted in retaliation for an injury or offense; retribution." And part of the commentary from this ACIM workbook lesson is: "Today's idea accurately describes the way anyone who holds attack thoughts in his mind must see the world. Having projected his anger onto the world, he sees vengeance about to strike at him. His own attack is thus perceived as self defense." When we see through the eyes of anything other than divine Love, we are seeing through the lens of mortal belief and all the erroneous thoughts which could cloud our sight. Today I'm going to be aware of this and release all attack thoughts, leaving empty this vessel to be filled with divine Love, which will lead me in paths I hadn’t before considered.
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“Any statement of life, following from a misconception of life, is erroneous, because it is destitute of any knowledge of the so-called selfhood of life, destitute of any knowledge of its origin or existence.” Science & Health Page 553:8-12
