Can you imagine having a mind like Christ? You don’t need to imagine it, because your mind has been to designed to function this way.

The only problem is that it has been conditioned by society to operate in the opposite way – to see division instead of unity, enmity instead of togetherness, judgement instead of compassion. The ego has taken control of our mind and convinced us to see things through its lens.

Instead, we need to see the world through the lens of our heart, and thusly our mind functions in perfect harmony with love. This is how the mind of Christ perceives the world. This is what ‘Christ Consciousness’ means; seeing through eyes of compassion and love.

Our ego has turned everything back-to-front and upside-down, and convinced us that many other things are far more important than compassion, love, gentleness, humility and vulnerability. This is the fundamental misunderstanding most people carry throughout their life.

Our job is to restore our perception, so that we learn to prioritise and nurture a love-based perspective.

It means becoming a different person; a softer person, a more forgiving person, and more humble and vulnerable person.

And this is the most rewarding thing we can possibly do with your remaining time here on earth. You have every day of your life to practice.

The rewards that come from correcting your perspective upon the world are like no other rewards we can experience in life. They are deep, profoundly beautiful and truly liberating beyond our comprehension.

Your heart will grow in strength, in love and in joy. Your mind will align with your heart and become clear, expansive and perceive a greater light, internally and externally.

If we do not prioritise correcting our perception, we will continue to live life in a state of mis-understanding, and continue to go through life wondering why the world seems to be in opposition to us; to threaten us and deny us what we really long for.

But it is not the world or the people in it that are the problem. It is the lens through which we perceive them.

Today, ask out loud for the light of Christ to come into your mind and heart, to help you truly understand what your purpose is, here on Earth. On a daily basis, renew and restate your whole-hearted desire to see reality through a crystal clear lens, and slowly but surely this will occur.

And one thing is guaranteed: You will not be disappointed.
