On body issues

To Spirit:

Spirit,

Please help me. Sometimes this body has issues that seem to demand my attention. Sometimes I find I have no choice but to stop everything because the body is demanding it so. I do not wish to deny my experience, but I do ask for your help in remembering the truth about the body even as I tend to it in the dream. Please help me to remember I am not a body, I am free, I am still as God created me. Please help me to notice the body and its issues and to let it all be used for salvation.

Spirit, please help me.

From Spirit:

Dear one,

The perception of body issues is no different than your perception of any issues you think you see and experience in the dream. There is no order of difficulty in miracles, but to you this one has seemed more challenging than others. This is due to your identification with the body. Believing it is you, you find your self concerned with any issues it seems to have.

Remember that the only real “body issue” is that you think you are a body. Allowing this belief to be corrected is the only way to relieve yourself of the fear you experience in facing a body issue. When you pull back the projection and look at it with me, your forgiveness process unfolds in the same way as it does for anything in the dream. When you look at it with me, you remember that there is no order of difficulty in miracles, and together we shine the light of truth onto any forms that the darkness seems to take.

Your practice with pain and body issues is a fertile ground in which many false beliefs will continue to present themselves and attempt to grow if you are not vigilant. Be vigilant only for God and his kingdom. Do not allow ego to tempt you with false stories about what you are and what contains you. Notice any moments in which the body seems to have an issue that is disturbing your peace. Remember to bring it to me right away. In returning your mind to me you save yourself the distress of having believed something about yourself that is completely untrue. In bringing your mind back to me you are allowing the body and “its issues” to be used for the purpose of salvation.

And I will remind you again and again: you are not a body, you are free, you are still as God created you.
