Bringing God’s Peace to the World

We ask for rest today, and quietness unshaken by the world’s appearances. We ask for peace and stillness, in the midst of all the turmoil born of clashing dreams. We ask for safety and for happiness, although we seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that will answer our asking with what we request.

“I rest in God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you seek.

Each hour that you take your rest [in God] today, a tired mind is suddenly made glad, a bird with broken wings begins to sing, a stream long dry begins to flow again. The world is born again each time you rest, and hourly remember that you came to bring the peace of God into the world, that it might take its rest along with you. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 109, W-pI.109.1:1-2:2;6. See also ACIM Lesson 109 Insights.)

We are all here to bring the peace of God into the world. There is no greater gift we could give, and it’s a gift we receive as we give.

When we perceive conflict and bring that perception to the Holy Spirit for His loving correction, we make way to give the peace of God to the world.

When we perceive guilt and let the Holy Spirit correct our misperception, we bring the gift of peace to the world.

When we experience fear and offer it to the Holy Spirit to let Him show us that we remain safe in God, we bring the peace of God to the world.

This is our practice for today.
