Double-mindedness

T-7.VI.9. Your mind is dividing its allegiance between two kingdoms, and you are totally committed to neither. 2 Your identification with the Kingdom is totally beyond question except by you, when you are thinking insanely. 3 What you are is not established by your perception, and is not influenced by it at all. 4 Perceived problems in identification at any level are not problems of fact. 5 They are problems of understanding, since their presence implies a belief that what you are is up to you to decide. 6 The ego believes this totally, being fully committed to it. 7 It is not true. 8 The ego therefore is totally committed to untruth, perceiving in total contradiction to the Holy Spirit and to the knowledge of God.

Comment: I am committed either to God to to self. Self is all about establishing an identity other than that of child of God, placed in the universe for a specific purpose. But who I am is already determined and fixed; there is no decision or choice to be made. The fact I believe there is a choice is itself insanity. When I perceive God's will as inconvenient, difficult, or obstructive to my other plans, it is because I am trying to establish an identity other than that of child of God.
