Here’s a teaching that’s changed how I move through my days:

There are only two sources of thought.

ACIM tells us so plainly. There are God thoughts, sourced from Spirit, sourced from Love. And there are ego thoughts, sourced from fear, sourced from separation.

That’s it. Every thought we have comes from one of these two places.

I like to say:  “I only think the thoughts I think with God.”

This is so important because we’re choosing constantly. Every minute. Every moment. We’re either entertaining a thought from Spirit, or we’re entertaining a thought from the ego thought system.

Many of us don’t know we’re choosing.

We just react. We just respond to whatever the mind serves up. We assume our thoughts are right. We assume they’re true because they’re loud or familiar.

Here’s the practice ACIM offers us in Lesson 132:

Question the source.

When a thought arises, we can ask, is this from God, or is this from the ego thought system? Is this a loving thought? Is it productive? Is it creative? Is it constructive?

If yes, we entertain it.

If no, we don’t just push it away. We offer it up to the Higher Holy Spirit Self. We ask for the belief beneath it to be dissolved, so the thought stops being magnetic.

This is the work. Moment by moment. Thought by thought.

One willingness at a time.

Here’s the encouraging part: we’re not stuck. We’ve been told the world is doing things to us, but the truth ACIM offers is much more freeing.

We are the ones who decide.

We decide what to think. We decide what to value. We decide what to entertain in our mind. And whatever we decide gets projected outward as the experience we call our life.

The change of mind isn’t a small thing. It’s the only thing.

If you’d like to do this work with us, my Change Your Mind About the World series begins May 30. Early-bird BONUSES end Monday, May 25. And if you’d like to start right away, my FREE Forgiveness Workshop is happening that same Monday, May 25.

We can do this!
