July 7th 2014 Review III

Lesson 111

Intention: To review two thoughts each the day

Practice: Devote the first and the last Five-minutes of the waking day reviewing the ideas for the day. In addition repeat one thought on the hour and the other on the half-hour during the day.
Application: -- For the two five-minute sessions, read over the ideas and comments given for each day's exercises. Think about them while letting your mind relate them to your needs, your seeming problems and all your concerns. Give the ideas to your mind and let it use them as it chooses. Have faith that your mind will use them wisely, being helped by the One Who gave the thoughts to you. Give direction at the onset; then lean back in quiet faith, and let the mind employ the thoughts you gave as they were given.
Application: -- For the hourly and half-hourly exercises, Repeat one thought on the hour and the other one half an hour later and allow your mind to rest for a minute or two in silence and in peace. Then return to your day but try to keep the thought with you, and let it serve to hep you keep your peace throughout the day as well. These practice periods are planned to help you form the habit of applying what you learn each day to everything you do, so use the thoughts and they will serve you in all ways, times, places, and situations. Take them with you in the business of the day and make them holy.

For morning and evening five-minute reviews

Miracles are seen in light.

I cannot see in darkness. Let the light of holiness and truth light up my mind, and let me see the innocence within.
Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one.

I see through strength, the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels, by giving me His strength to take its place.

On the hour one-minute:
Miracles are seen in light.
On the half hour one-minute:
Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one.
