Above all else I want to see

I began my third round of A Course In Miracles workbook this year, which is a 365 day study and mind training.

Today’s lesson states, “Above all else I want to see.”

For me, above all else I want to see Truth. This applies both on a physical and spiritual level. 

On a physical level I want to see past all the illusions, all the distractions, all the smoke and mirrors – and through to the truth. What is really going on? Who do I believe? What’s best for all of us? What’s the right next move?

I want to see through the illusion of your protective personality and your ego and through to the Truth of who you are – your true self, the love that you are, the beauty that you are – your wholeness, your magnificence.

Above all else I want to see.

I am committed to this path of remembering and of revealing the truth. 

The story of  Michelangelo and his statue of David seems fitting: 

“In every block of marble I see a statue as plain as though it stood before me, shaped and perfect in attitude and action. I have only to hew away the rough walls that imprison the lovely apparition to reveal it to the other eyes as mine see it.”

I believe we all came here knowing the Truth – able to see – but have since forgotten. 

We now need simply remember, to see beyond the illusions to the Truth.
