I will be still, and let the earth be still along with me. And in that stillness we will find the peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to God Himself.
I bless the world because I bless myself.
God’s blessing shines upon me from within my heart, where He abides. I need but turn to Him, and every sorrow melts away, as I accept His boundless Love for me. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 208, W-pII.208.1:2-4;207.1:1-3. See also ACIM Lesson 208 Insights.)
We are constantly bombarded with appearances that disturb our peace, if we let them. These appearances are projections designed by the ego to trick us into believing separation is real, the body is our identity and we must be on constant guard for our safety. The ego views peace as its adversary to be defended against.
We have the means to neutralize the ego and reduce its affects on our peace of mind to nothing. We start with stilling our mind. We pause, take a breath and tune in to the peace of God within us. It’s there, waiting for us to welcome it and accept it. From that place of stillness in God’s peace, we bring peace to the world. We are able to see the ego’s apparitions as nothing but a false idea which we overlook as we dwell in the peace of God.
In God’s peace we are certain of our invulnerability. We feel the strength of Love supporting and embracing us. In this certainty, we recognize the Love we are in every brother. He is not an adversary but a true friend, united with us in the oneness of God’s Love.
Let us practice this today to be messengers of peace in the world.
