ACIM Lesson 236 notes.

I rule my mind, which I alone must rule.

“I have a kingdom I must rule. At times, it does not seem I am its King at all.”

Earlier I was reading some articles on the state of healthcare. None of it was good news, just people getting sicker for profits. As I closed the app, I stopped myself from pushing the messages aside and instead sent a message to Source. ‘NO, I don’t want this!’

Earlier this week I heard someone say, “No is a complete sentence.” I immediately understood that many of us tend to give reasons and excuses when just needing to express that we do no want, agree with, or support a situation.

When my responses are wishy-washy, I am not ruling the kingdom of  my mind. There are two reasons I recognize as to why I do this. One is to be considerate to not hurt the other person. The second is to avoid conflict. These seem like good reasons, so I am wanting more guidance and understanding on how to speak my truth with compassion.

Help is wanted here! _/\_

“Today, I give its service to the Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit.”

My heart suddenly swelled, and a smile came to my face.

Hello! Welcome! Be with me HS! I give You my mind. And You give it back to me. It’s all clean and light. Quiet. Creative. Ready for new, fun experiences.

“I have a kingdom I must rule. At times, it does not seem I am its king at all. It seems to triumph over me, and tell me what to think, and what to do and feel. And yet it has been given me to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only serve.”

My mind is my kingdom for ME to rule. I’ve been around awhile and have had my mind pulled in many directions – sometimes to extremes. Today, I rule it. And I know that opening it up to HS is good.

Come, be in me and with me.

“Today I give its service to the Holy Spirit, to employ as He sees fit. I thus direct my mind, which I alone can rule. And thus I set it free, to do the Will of God.”
