Review (192)

Your function given by God.

The review of lesson 192 reminds you that you have a specific function God wants you to fulfill. The refrain "I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me" establishes the foundation upon which this function can be exercised: only one who knows themselves as free and spiritual can truly serve. Reviews are important because they allow you to clarify your mission.

Lesson 192 taught you that forgiveness is your function here. The review sharpens your focus: "I seek the function that would free me from all the world’s vain illusions. Only the function God has given me can offer freedom. This alone do I seek, and this alone will I accept as mine.

During this review period, reflect on the functions you have accepted in your life. Are they aligned with the function God gave you? Do they free you, or bind you further? Forgiveness is not just one function among others, it is the fundamental function that encompasses all others. When you forgive, you fulfill your function in every situation.

Practice suggestion:

Today, several times, remind yourself: "My only function is to forgive." When a difficult situation arises, instead of reacting by habit, ask: "How can I fulfill my function of forgiveness here, now?" Sometimes it will be through silence, sometimes a gentle word, sometimes simply an inner shift in perception. No matter the form, the content is the same: forgiveness that liberates.

Reviews are the fertile soil in which the seeds of truth take root and grow into strong trees that will never again be uprooted by the winds of doubt.
