I breathe in a most incredible day today♡ the sun is shining brightly releasing its energic and loving rays upon me.
It was a busy day yesterday and I did not have much time alone with my thoughts or words. I have taken to slowing down and consciously choosing both my thoughts and words. I go inward to reflect. At times it seems as if I can feel the earth moving below my feet and I am standing still♡
Which brings me to today♡ A Course in Miracles♡
'I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts.'
The idea for today is the reason why your seeing does not affect you and you alone. You will notice that at times the ideas related to thinking precede those related to perceiving, while at other times the order is reversed. The reason is that the order does not matter.
Thinking and its results are really
simultaneous, for cause and effect are never separate.
Today we are again emphasizing the fact that minds are joined. This is a rely a wholly welcome idea at first, since it seems to carry with it an enormous sense of responsibility, and may even be regarded as an "invasion of privacy." Yet it is a fact that there are no private thoughts.
Despite your initial resistance to this idea, you will yet understand that it must be true if salvation is possible at all. And salvation must be possible because it is the Will of God.
The minute or so of mind searching which today's exercises require is to be undertaken with eyes closed. The idea for today is to be repeated first, and then the mind should be carefully searched for the thoughts it contains at that time. As you consider each one, name it in terms of the central person
or theme it contains, and holding it in your mind as you do so, say:
I am not alone in experiencing the effects of this thought about ______ .
The requirement of as much indiscriminateness as possible in selecting subjects for the practice periods should be quite familiar to you by now, and will no longer be repeated each day, although it will occasionally be included as a reminder. Do not forget, however, that random selection of subjects for all practice periods remains essential throughout. Lack of order in this connection will ultimately make the recognition of lack of order in miracles meaningful to you.
Apart from the "as needed" application of today's idea, at least three practice periods are required, shortening the length of time involved, if necessary. Do not attempt more than four.
Experience the best of today♡ lori♡ Blessed Be me & you♡
