ACIM Workbook - Lesson 284
Loss is not loss when properly perceived. Pain is impossible. There is no
grief with any cause at all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but a
dream. This is the truth, at first to be but said and then repeated many times;
and next to be accepted as but partly true, with many reservations. Then to
be considered seriously more and more, and finally accepted as the truth. I
can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these
words today, and past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the
truth in them.
- Father, what You have given cannot hurt, so grief and pain must be
- impossible. Let me not fail to trust in You today, accepting but the joyous
- as Your gifts; accepting but the joyous as the truth.
