Accepting the Certainty of God’s Love

I will receive whatever I request.

No one desires pain. ²But he can think that pain is pleasure. ³No one would avoid his happiness. ⁴But he can think that joy is painful, threatening and dangerous. ⁵Everyone will receive what he requests. ⁶But he can be confused indeed about the things he wants; the state he would attain. ⁷What can he then request that he would want when he receives it? ⁸He has asked for what will frighten him, and bring him suffering. ⁹Let us resolve today to ask for what we really want, and only this, that we may spend this day in fearlessness, without confusing pain with joy, or fear with love.

Father, this is Your day. ²It is a day in which I would do nothing by myself, but hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting only what You offer me, accepting only Thoughts You share with me. (A Course in Miracles, W-339. See also ACIM Lesson 339 Insights.)

While we engage in the dream of separation we believe we are alone. On our own we are in charge of what we experience. But because we believe we are separate, no matter what we do, there always appears to be outside forces that can have an effect on us. Even our most preferred circumstances have an underlying layer of uncertainty.

There is no uncertainty in God’s Love. It is always given His Creations without limit and without end. We are being called to ask for the certain rather than the uncertainty of the dream. God does not withhold anything until we ask for it. It is always already given. But our asking is needed because it welcomes His gifts. Love waits on welcome.

Today we ask the Holy Spirit to help us look past the images of separation and welcome the presence of Love everywhere and everyone. Here we find joy and peace.
