My thoughts* on ACIM Urtext Lesson 172, for June 20, 2024. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

1. (153) In my defenselessness my safety lies.

* My defense is denial that anything not of God exists in reality. This is not denying an experience but knowing that it cannot touch me because God is REAL and all else is confusion.

* This does not mean that I do not have healthy boundaries and see those which believe that harm is possible.

* It means:

²God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

2. (154) I am among the ministers of God.

* I love this part because it shows me that anything that I experience is for my learning and participation in uplifting the United Consciousness of Christ.

* THIS in NO WAY suggests that I stay in a position of abuse or neglect in the world of form.

* I have healthy boundaries because I know that there ARE OTHERS who still believe in separation from God and All That IS and that something besides Love and Abundance is possible.

* This also means that I do not have to feel left out or jealous about ANYTHING because I AM a part of it ALL by Being a part of Christ.

* This also means that I do not have to feel left out or jealous about ANYTHING because I AM a part of it ALL by Being a part of Christ. Opportunities that could express themselves that way help me strengthen my faith (which becomes confidence and then knowledge because God Truly Is) in what is True that may not be evident in the moment.

²God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

(ACIM, W-172.1:1–2:2)

Till next time, God bless, debi.
