I am not a body.
I am free.
For I remain as God created me.
[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.
I am not a body.
I am free.
For I remain as God created me.
✨ Summary & practice
Review: God’s lessons in all things.
The review of lesson 193 invites you to see every event as a lesson God wants you to learn. The refrain "I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me" keeps you in the right perspective to receive these lessons: you are not a vulnerable body suffering events, but a free spirit who can learn from everything.
Lesson 193 revealed that all distress is merely a lack of forgiveness, and that every lesson has the same content. The review adds a beautiful image: "A lesson is a miracle God offers me in place of thoughts I made that hurt me." Every difficulty is a miracle in disguise.
During this review period, you are invited to let go of your own interpretations. You have spent your life learning the world’s lessons: how to protect yourself, how to win, how to avoid pain. Now it is time to learn God’s lessons: how to forgive, how to love, how to be free.
Practice suggestion:
Today, before anything happens, declare: "I am ready to learn God’s lessons today. Every event is an opportunity to learn peace." When difficulty arises, instead of reacting with frustration or fear, say: "This is a lesson God wants me to learn. What miracle is hidden here?" You will find that this simple question opens your mind to a broader, more peaceful perception.
Review is the silent transformation that takes place within you when you stop struggling and begin to welcome, knowing that everything that comes is an opportunity to remember who you truly are.
