Pausing to Welcome God’s Gifts

The world fades easily away before [Christ’s] sight. ²Its sounds grow dim. ³A melody from far beyond the world increasingly is more and more distinct; an ancient call to which He gives an ancient answer. ⁴You will recognize them both, for they are but your answer to your Father’s Call to you. ⁵Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, using your voice to give His glad consent; accepting your deliverance for you.

How holy is your practicing today, as Christ gives you His sight and hears for you, and answers in your name the Call He hears! ²How quiet is the time you give to spend with Him, beyond the world. ³How easily are all your seeming sins forgot, and all your sorrows unremembered. ⁴On this day is grief laid by, for sights and sounds that come from nearer than the world are clear to you who will today accept the gifts He gives.”

…you can exchange all suffering for joy this very day. ⁵Practice in earnest, and the gift is yours. ⁶Would God deceive you? ⁷Can His promise fail? ⁸Can you withhold so little, when His Hand holds out complete salvation to His Son? (A Course in Miracles, W-164.2:1–3:4;9:4-8. See also ACIM Lesson 164 Insights.)

The vision of Christ is always available to us. We need only pause to quiet our mind to let His vision transform our perception of the world. Christ sees the Love that is everywhere around us and in us. With His vision, we welcome God’s gifts of joy and peace. This vision is what our true Self always sees. Only our mistaken identification with the ego makes us unaware of is always there to see.

Today we practice frequently pausing to welcome Christ’s vision; to see the world anew. Our pauses welcome God’s gifts. We remember we are as God created us.
