LESSON 83.  Second Review

(65) My only function is the one God gave me.

My perception of this does not change my function.
This does not give me a function other than the one God gave me.
Let me not use this to justify a function God did not give me.

(66) My happiness and my function are one.

This cannot separate my happiness from my function.
The oneness of my happiness and my function remains wholly unaffected by this.
Nothing, including this, can justify the illusion of happiness apart from my function.

Comment:

No matter what is facing me to simplify what ‘on earth’ I am doing here by remembering my only function is the one God gave me feels like it takes ALL the heat off me, freeing me to listen and respond appropriately.

If I can recognise that as the happiness I seek then the miracle has happened.
