A Truth of Sickness

The following is taken from "A Course In Miracles."  Within the text you will find a language filled with wisdom that will challenge old beliefs and change perspective. It is healing. It stimulates introspection.

"Sickness is a decision. It is not a thing that happens to you, quite unsought, which makes you weak and brings you suffering. It is a choice you make, a plan you lay, when for an instant truth arises in your own deluded mind, and all your world appears to totter and prepare to fall. Now are you sick, that truth may go away and threaten your establishments no more."

Yet, you can decide to examine and challenge those ills, and:

"Healing will flash across your open mind, as peace and truth arise to take the place of war and vain imaginings."

Once you discover your truth:

"Now is the body healed, because the source of sickness has been opened to relief."

May we all be followers of truth.

Sickness is not a state of mind it is a state of mindlessness.

It's still about the mind...
