ACIM Lesson 42 Exercise

"God Is My Strength. Vision is God's Gift". Remember only this; you need not believe the ideas, you need not accept them, and you need not even welcome them. Some of them you may actively resist. None of this will matter, or decrease their efficacy. But do not allow yourself to make exceptions in applying the ideas the workbook contains, and whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, use them. Nothing more than that is required.

Welcome to Active Meditation. A Course in Miracles, Lesson 42. God is my strength. Vision is God's gift. Open your eyes. Look about you. Slowly. Say to yourself. Repeat in your mind. Vision must be possible. God gives truly. Close your eyes. Repeat again in your mind. Vision must be possible. God gives truly. Now spend some time observing thoughts. Thoughts that are related to the possibility of vision and God's gift. I'll be silent while you do this. I'll be silent while you do this. Remember, However, That active searching for relevant thoughts is not appropriate for today's exercises. Try merely to step back and let the thoughts come. If you find this difficult, It is better to spend the practice period alternating. Between slow repetitions of the idea with eyes open, Then with eyes closed, Than it is to strain to find suitable thoughts. Let's practice again. Open your eyes. Slowly look around. Repeat in your mind several times. God's gift to me must be mine because God gave them to me. Close your eyes. Repeat again in your mind. God's gift to me must be mine because God gave them to me. Now, Witness your thoughts. Thoughts that are related to the gifts that God has given you. Now, Witness your thoughts. Let's practice again. Open your eyes. Slowly look around. Open your eyes. Slowly look around. Open your eyes. Open your eyes. Open your eyes. Repeat to yourself, God is my strength. Vision is the gift. Resume observing your thoughts. Vision is the gift. Let's practice again. Let's practice again. There is no limit on the number of short practice periods that would be beneficial today. The more often you repeat the idea during the day, The more often you will be reminding yourself that the goal of the course is important to you. And that you have not forgotten it. God is my strength. Vision is the gift. God is my strength. God is my strength. Vision is the gift. Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God.

God is indeed my strength! the repetition and practice of these lessons has increased my peace over the years. I am so Grateful!
thank you for bringing them to us in such a deep and meaningful way 🙏🏼💖

I have been able to do the meditations for the lessons with your assistance. Prior to finding you on IT I was attempting to do the lessons on my own and was not able to go as deeply. It was difficult to keep my mind from wandering. When I listen to you, I am able to absorb the lesson. Thank you!!
