When you are still an instant, when the world recedes from you, when valueless ideas cease to have value in your restless mind, then will you hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not resist Him longer. In that instant He will take you to His home, and you will stay with Him in perfect stillness, silent and at peace, beyond all words, untouched by fear and doubt, sublimely certain that you are at home.
Rest with Him frequently today. For He was willing to become a little Child that you might learn of Him how strong is he who comes without defenses, offering only love’s messages to those who think he is their enemy. He holds the might of Heaven in His hand and calls them friend, and gives His strength to them, that they may see He would be Friend to them. He asks that they protect Him, for His home is far away, and He will not return to it alone. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 182, W-pI.182.8-9. See also ACIM Lesson 182 Insights.)
Everyone in the world is seeking for peace. But the world we experience through the body was made to keep the Source of peace out of our awareness. To find the peace we seek we need to step out of the world of form.
We need to be still, let our thoughts be quiet and open our minds to the Love within that is our true Self, God’s one Child.… In stillness we can remember the safety of our Home in God.… We can feel His strength in us and remember only Love is real.… We remember our strength and bring it with us back into the world of bodies.… We know that our strength is not of this world, but remains with us wherever we go.… We can trust in the strength of God within us and know that it will support us through each day.…
Today we will practice being still and remembering the strength of Love as we offer It to everyone. Thus we will learn that a seeming foe is truly our Friend Who is one with us.
