ACIM Lesson 248 Contemplation

"Whatever suffers is not part of me."
This lesson emphasizes that our Higher Self, as the Son of God, cannot suffer, and therefore anything that experiences suffering is not our real identity. It encourages us to disengage from our egos and bodies, recognizing that when we identify with suffering, we unconsciously blame God and block our love for Him.

A Course in Miracles Lesson 248 Whatever suffers is not part of me.

I have disowned the truth.

Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity.

Whatever suffers is not part of me.

What grieves is not myself.

What is in pain is but illusion in my mind.

What dies was never living in reality.

What dies only does mock the truth about myself.

Now I disown self-concepts.

Now I disown deceits and lies about the holy children of God.

Now I am ready to accept all of the children back as God created them and as God is.

Father,

My ancient love for you returns.

Father,

My ancient love for you lets me love your child again.

Father,

I am as you created me.

Father,

Now is your love remembered and my own.

Father,

Now I understand that your love and my love are one.
