The Gift of Light and Joy and Peace

Salvation requires the acceptance of but one thought;—you are as God created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the truth about you is unchanged. Creation is eternal and unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. You are and will forever be exactly as you were created. Light and joy and peace abide in you because God put them there.

You are what God created or what you made. One Self is true; the other is not there. Try to experience the unity of your one Self. Try to appreciate Its Holiness and the love from which It was created. Try not to interfere with the Self which God created as you, by hiding Its majesty behind the tiny idols of evil and sinfulness you have made to replace It. Let It come into Its Own. Here you are; This is You. And light and joy and peace abide in you because this is so.

Should you be tempted to become angry with someone, tell him silently:

Light and joy and peace abide in you.
Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God.

You can do much for the world’s salvation today. You can do much today to bring you closer to the part in salvation that God has assigned to you. And you can do much today to bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the day is true indeed, (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 93, W-pI.93.7;9;11:2-7. See also ACIM Lesson 93 Insights.)

Today we have an important opportunity. With everyone we meet or even think of we can mentally tell them, “Light and joy and peace abide in you. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God.”

To the extent that we remember to do this with everyone through the day, we will be teaching ourselves that this is true for us. This powerful lesson will set us free from guilt and fear. This practice will open the door to let God’s Love and peace flood in to fill our awareness. We will be remembering that we remain as God created us — innocent, Love and filled with joy. We will be remembering the truth about What we are. Is this not a worthy practice? Is this not a supreme gift to give ourselves and the world? It is the gift of freedom.
