ACIM Lesson 199 notes.

I am not a body, I am free.

“The mind that serves the Holy Spirit is unlimited forever.” (para.2)

It has been an interesting 24 hours as I watch my mind wobble due to a stressful encounter. The body feels anxious, so the mind is working away looking for solutions. The ego pulls one way toward defensiveness, drafting many words into imaginary conversations. It has decided it knows how the other person is feeling, upset with me, doesn’t like this, so produces long explanations that it believes will change how the other person feels. I don’t choose this action, but still it keeps trying to influence me.

My decision was to give 24 hours’ time before deciding on any responses. I wanted the reactionary energy to diminish and for me to have time to hear from HS, Love. Learning of gratitude in lesson 197 helped me to choose to not block Love’s flow in the relationship. This lesson is reinforcing my stance against the pull of ego, to not only choose to be in my soul’s heart-space but to also be in service to HS, Love.

Show me. Use me.

I bless this situation to be a growth point for all involved.

“The mind can be made free when it no longer sees itself as in a body.”

“The body disappears, because you have no need of it except the need the Holy Spirit sees.”

“The mind that serves the Holy Spirit is unlimited forever.”

God’s will.

I find the lesson gives a process to help me to turn my life over to God’s will. I do not want all the worries, fears, and drama that identifying with a body holds. When I release my mind from attachment to the activities of the body the outcome is not eternal nothing. HS is there with a ‘to do’ list of activities for the body to get done in this world. I want to help this world but have no clue what to do or how to do it.

I am not a body, but I have a body, mind, and spirit. Use me Great Love!

My body is a blessed gift of Mother Earth and God. It is the vehicle in which I travel and observe this place. I am spirit made of Love and connected to my Source. When I listen, I can have the body act in the most loving direction for the highest good.
