Message
This week we go inward to re-member our connection with that inner Voice that supports and guides us in the most subtlest of ways. Where the ego-mind practically screams every version of fear it can so as to “keep us safe and comfortable”, the Voice quietly, seemingly in the background, shares instructions, guidance, and perspective in every given moment—when we train our “ears” to hear it.
The Lessons give us plenty of opportunities to practice bypassing the ego’s cacophonous, fear-based verbiage and instead tuning into that all-knowing Voice of clarity and understanding, and always for our best interest.
We also dip our toes into the concept of forgiveness, which for most of us may seem challenging. We’ve put so much energy into holding onto our hurt, indignation, and self-righteousness, that forgiveness seems nearly impossible to dole out and downright insulting to HAVE to do so.
Well hold onto your hats, people…”forgiveness” is another one of those ideas that gets a proper perspective change this week—ACIM style. I’ll give you a hint: it’s not about forgiving them, it’s about forgiving ourselves. Wait…What ? [Read more about it on Day 47–February 15, 2026–on the MandalaoftheDay.com site]
Along with this week’s theme, there’s also another way of looking at the terms that ACIM uses such as the word “God”, which is prevalent throughout this week’s lessons. Feel free to replace it with whatever term allows you to embrace the message rather than reject it based on how it was delivered. The “neutral” versions provide some alternatives. Other possibilities: Universal Mind, Source, The Universe, Love, Light, Bob, Janice, Dude, Joy—just to name a few.
Peace & Blessings,
