ACIM Lesson 253 My eyes, my tongue, my hands, my feet today have but one purpose; to be given Christ to use to bless the world with miracles.
Father, I give all that is mine today to Christ, to use in any way that best will serve the purpose that I share with Him.
My eyes, my tongue, my hands, my feet today have but one purpose; to be given Christ to use to bless the world with miracles.
1. Father, I give all that is mine today to Christ, to use in any way that best will serve the purpose that I share with Him. ²Nothing is mine alone, for He and I have joined in purpose. ³Thus has learning come almost to its appointed end. ⁴A while I work with Him to serve His purpose. ⁵Then I lose myself in my Identity, and recognize that Christ is but my Self.
My Purpose is Strong and Certain
My day is quite busy. Besides doing my work as usual, I have a family gathering to cook for and then to join. On top of that, I didn’t sleep well. But none of this affects the days lesson. In spite of all I do, my purpose remains strong and certain. I will be the Love that I am while I accomplish what needs to be done. This body and this mind are dedicated to His use.
To know that I am Christ
A while I work with Him to serve His purpose. Then I lose myself in my Identity, and recognize that Christ is but my Self.
I have let go of the desire to run my life separate from Spirit. Now I am allowing self-will and self-identity to fall away as I welcome the healing of my mind. This is going to lead to a complete loss of the “me” I have been so attached to, and complete relinquishment of the idea of a separate will, a separate me.
It has been a long time coming, but it must be closer. I have learned that this is not something to dread or be afraid of. In fact, I long for it. Now, I can even begin to imagine it, and before I could not. I used to think I would have to sacrifice everything to give God what He wants, and now I think that I will sacrifice nothing to be what I am. In this way, I am going to relinquish pain and suffering for joy and peace. I am going to let go of self-will for Divine Will.
When does this happen? How does it happen? I don’t know. Today, I will be God’s teacher. I will be the hands and feet of Christ so I can be used for the awakening. To do this, I will notice any resistance so I can let it go. I will learn surrender on a deeper level than before and be glad of it. Today, I will be available to Christ. One day, I will know I am Christ.
