I gladly make the “sacrifice” of fear.
I noticed that as I read and then contemplated on this lesson that I was aware of a tension held within. We had just discussed paying bills and taking care of other needed chores. This then led to the subtle tension. Any upset, no matter how seemingly small is a disturbance to my mind. In today’s lesson, I am asked to give up all the thoughts that are not of truth, that bring me only fear. If I am worried; I am in fear. If I am angry, then I am in fear. Today, I release all the fear to my Father and do it with gladness and joy. It is in joy that He wishes that I live my life. I let go of the judgments that I feel towards myself or others or situations. I receive the abundance of Love that was already mine. These thoughts of fear are just dirt on my windowpanes to seeing the Light of His Love. Today, I wash them clean by forgiving each thought and receiving peace. Thank You Father for giving me the means by which I set myself free. Amen.
