My thoughts* on ACIM Urtext Lesson 319 for 15 November 2023. You Did Too!

I came for the salvation of the world.

* I did and so did you.

1. Here is a thought from which all arrogance has been removed, and only truth remains.

* This is such a profound statement. Egoic arrogance defies our place and ultimately our existence. Yet, WE CANNOT CLAIM CREDIT FOR WHO WE ARE. GOD ALONE DOES.

²For arrogance opposes truth.

³But when there is no arrogance the truth will come immediately, and fill up the space the ego left unoccupied by lies.

* God IS.

⁴Only the ego can be limited, and therefore it must seek for aims which are curtailed and limiting.

⁵The ego thinks that what one gains, totality must lose.

* It is just the opposite.

⁶And yet it is the Will of God I learn that what one gains is given unto all.

2. Father, Your Will is total.

²And the goal which stems from it shares its totality.

* Could I then think of anything as a solo entity? If I want to raise my vibration and that of Christ Consciousness I want to start thinking as a Whole Entity and get over my aversion to it. It does take consistent effort or really, realization that we could be nothing but the Whole that we are and that means we want to keep our ear to the counsel of Spirit or God Who Is the Whole of What We ARE as His Son.

³What aim but the salvation of the world could You have given me?

* We are on God’s Errand. God, as in the Whole and not a single fractal or portion thereof.

⁴And what but this could be the Will my Self has shared with You?

* Does this not just give you “Spirit Chills?!!!”
