Lesson 211
“I am not a body. I am free.
For I am still as God created me.”
[191]“I am the holy Son of God Himself.”
In silence and in true humility
I seek God’s glory, to behold it in
the Son whom He created as my Self.
Lesson 212
“I am not a body. I am free.
For I am still as God created me.”
[192]“I have a function God would have me fill.”
I seek the function that would set me free
from all the vain illusions of the world.
Only the function God has given me
can offer freedom. Only this I seek,
and only this will I accept as mine.
Lesson 213
[193] “All things are lessons God would have me learn.”
A lesson is a miracle which God
offers to me, in place of thoughts I made
that hurt me.What I learn of Him becomes
the way I am set free.And so I choose
to learn His lessons, and forget my own.
Lesson 214
“I am not a body. I am free.
For I am still as God created me.”
[194]“I place the future in the hands of God.”
The past is gone; the future is not yet.
Now am I freed from both. For what God gives
can only be for good.And I accept
but what He gives as what belongs to me.
