ACIM Workbook Lesson #271
“Christ's is the vision I will use today."
Many times in these past few days I've thought how much easier it is to see with Christ's vision when I'm home alone rather than when being bombarded by questions and noise. I've been judgmental toward others for many reasons. There was the man who opened our front door and shouted a question, without as much as a nod of thank you when he got an answer. Or the countless people who exclaim how great it is to find locally-made things, and then rush through the gallery without even looking at anything. I've found myself falling into the mindless rush of those who speak without thought. Then I grab onto the lifesaver of Truth which is always there waiting for me to notice, and I realize it doesn't matter what's going on around me. Does God wait for things to calm down before seeing the perfection inherent in all Being? As a reflection of divinity, I shan't wait either!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“This dual personality of the unseen and the seen, the spiritual and material, the eternal Christ and the corporeal Jesus manifest in flesh, continued until the Master’s ascension, when the human, material concept, or Jesus, disappeared, while the spiritual self, or Christ, continues to exist in the eternal order of divine Science, taking away the sins of the world, as the Christ has always done, even before the human Jesus was incarnate to mortal eyes.”
