My mind is part of God's. I am very holy....

OK, right off the bat I have issues with this topic. While I can get with my mind being one with The Divine, I think that no humans are holy. The coursework says that today's idea does not describe the way I see myself now, but it describes what True Vision will show me. I agree with the course assessment that "It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in this world to believe this of himself." Then it goes on to state that the reason I think I am in this world is because I don't believe that my mind is part of God's.

It tells me that I will believe I am part of where I think I am. That is because I surround myself with the environment I want, and I it to protect the image of myself that I have made. The image is part of it. What I see while I believe I am in it is seen through the eyes of the image. It is not vision. Images cannot see.

So the idea for today allows me to see differently. It allows me to establish my Source and thereby establish my Identity, and it describes me as I must really be in truth. The emphasis is on me as perceiver, rather than on what I perceive....

For instance, I may see myself as some of the attributes below:
“I see myself as imposed on.”
“I see myself as depressed.”
“I see myself as failing.”
“I see myself as endangered.”
“I see myself as helpless.”
“I see myself as victorious.”
“I see myself as losing out.”
“I see myself as charitable.”
“I see myself as virtuous.”

But when I think of myself in any of those ways, I need to correct my thinking and add: “But my mind is part of God’s. I am very holy.”

I'm not sure about this one. But my mind is part of God's. I am very holy.
This is going to require a lot of application for proper understanding, but my mind is part of Gods. I am very holy.

The "very holy" part is something I struggle with. But my mind is part of God's. I am very holy.

No matter how flawed I may perceive myself, no matter how annoyed I get during the day, no matter how frustrated or inadequate I may feel, I need to remember that My mind is part of Gods. I am very holy.
