My thoughts* on Workbook Lesson 236, for August 23, 2024. Do NOT Let Your Mind Be Ruled by Anyone But YOU

I rule my mind, which I alone must rule.
* DO NOT give it to someone else to rule. This is something that we currently NEED to work on and remember CONTINUALLY.

1. I have a kingdom I must rule.

²At times, it does not seem I am its king at all.

³It seems to triumph over me, and tell me what to think, and what to do and feel.

⁴And yet it has been given me to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it.

⁵My mind can only serve.

⁶Today I give its service to the Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit.

⁷I thus direct my mind, which I alone can rule.

⁸And thus I set it free to do the Will of God.

2. Father, my mind is open to Your Thoughts, and closed today to every thought but Yours.

²I rule my mind, and offer it to You.

³Accept my gift, for it is Yours to me.

(ACIM, W-236.1:1–2:3)

* Father, help me remember to forgive my own mistakes as I forgive others.

Till next time, God bless us EVERY ONE, debi.
