The illusion that you have any control over your actions lies at the core of your belief and desire for autonomy/separation from God. Feelings like “I have control issues” or “you have control issues” are really expressions of the one mistaken belief in separation, the illusion of control. Relief from suffering comes from an acceptance that the illusion of voluntary control was not created by God and is therefore impossible.
Let your sleeping mind be reminded of the very important awareness that you are complete and healed and whole, and let nothing convince you otherwise. If you reacting to a situation in the world by feeling upset, you are reacting to something that is already over and gone. Only false interpretation is upsetting, and you have the power to accept the Holy Spirit’s interpretation of the world instead.
God did not create projection, and so as you goes deeper into the awareness of Love’s Presence, the concepts of projection and manifestation must fall away. Non-dual ACIM teachings point you towards a purified state. At first you will find that you have outgrown religion and ultimately you will outgrow all spirituality as well! Dive into the pure, non-dual Love, open communication, and Presence that is shared here as a starting point for accepting Spirit as the only Reality there is.
