Lesson 211 – Review of Lesson 191

I am not a body. I am free.
For I am still as God created me.

(191) I am the holy Child of God Godself.

In silence and in true humility I seek God’s glory, to behold it in the Child whom God created as my Self.

I am not a body. I am free.
For I am still as God created me.   W-pI.211.1:1-5

This review lesson reminds us that the rediscovery of our true Self is found in silence, quiet. Find a moment to be still and look within. The ancient memories are there in our Mind. Spirit has held them for us waiting for us to be willing to see again and recognize our real Self. The knowing that we are all the One Child, that we are inseparable in Oneness has always been within us for the remembering. There is an ancient song of joy that rises within us when we allow ourselves to open to who we really are.

Here is your declaration of release from bondage of the world. And here as well is all the world released. You do not see what you have done by giving to the world the role of jailer to the Child of Oneness. What could it be but vicious and afraid, fearful of shadows, punitive and wild, lacking all reason, blind, insane with hate?   W-pI.191.1:1-4

This sounds horrible. How could we have done such a thing? Yet it is not irreversible. We have simply denied our own Identity, and this is what remains. We have looked on chaos and proclaimed it is our identity. Yet it is not real. It exists only in our mind. Everything we look upon we misinterpret as chaos of which we have become victim to. And thus, we believe we are as unholy as our misinterpretation. When we let today’s idea find a place among our thoughts and we have risen far above the world, from this place of safety and escape we will return and set the world free. We who can accept our true Identity are truly changed. This is the gift we give to everyone, pointing out the way to happiness that changes our whole perspective of the world. One holy thought like this and we are free: We are Oneness. With this holy thought we learn as well that we have freed the world.

Then let the Child of Oneness awaken from their sleep, and opening their holy eyes, return again to bless the world they made. In error it began, but it will end in the reflection of their holiness. And they will sleep no more and dream of death. Then join with me today. Your glory is the light that saves the world. Do not withhold salvation longer. Look about the world, and see the suffering there. Is not your heart willing to bring your weary companions rest?   W-pI.191.10:1-8

Then let yourself be quiet a moment. Allow yourself to listen to that ancient song within you and awaken. Your true Self is there waiting for your invitation to rise in your mind. In that knowing will you recognize your holiness – your true Identity. You will bring this recognition and awareness to the world and everyone you see. Don’t be fooled by appearances. Look beyond them and the reality beyond all you think you see will be revealed. You will realize that you had simply been no more than mistaken. Welcome the awareness of the wholeness and holiness of all that is.
