ACIM Lesson 223
God is my life. I have no life by His.
I spend so much of my life thinking I am this separate self, moving through the world on my own, carrying my own story, my own worries, my own plans.
This lesson quietly undoes that idea.
My life is not something I possess apart from God. I am not alone inside this body, trying to find my way back to Him. There is nowhere else to go.
Perhaps remembering is simply this: allowing the thought of separation to soften, and resting for a moment in what has always been true.
My life is in God. I am already home.
A Listening Practice
Before entering the silence, you may wish to listen to today’s Prayer Song.
Let the words and music be with you for a while. There is nothing to understand and nothing you need to accomplish.
When the music ends, allow the quiet to remain.
Rest with the lesson.
Listen.
