“Awakening involves mind training. Step back and pay attention to the thoughts that come into awareness. Feel your desire for healing. Preferences are judgments, and as the mind yields to the nonjudgmental Perspective of the Holy Spirit, the Awakening is obvious.

The miracle offers a real alternative and when one is consistently miracle-minded, defenses are no longer needed.”
