God’s healing Voice protects all things today.
Let us today attend the Voice for God, which speaks an ancient lesson, no more true today than any other day. ²Yet has this day been chosen as the time when we will seek and hear and learn and understand. ³Join me in hearing. ⁴For the Voice for God tells us of things we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. ⁵It is in this that all things are protected. ⁶And in this the healing of the Voice for God is found.
Your healing Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to You. ²I need be anxious over nothing. ³For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to go; to whom to speak and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what words to give the world. ⁴The safety that I bring is given me. ⁵Father, Your Voice protects all things through me. (W-275, A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 275. See also ACIM Lesson 275 Insights.)
We can call upon God’s Voice to guide us throughout the day, every day. There is no detail too small or mundane to be unworthy of His attention. The ego would have us believe that we live on an island lost to God, lost to our true Self, alone and vulnerable. We can count on the help of God’s Voice to help us, but we must be willing to listen. The ego defends against this help by flooding our mind with meaningless thoughts about the past and worries about the future.
To neutralize the ego’s defenses, we need to practice stepping back from our involvement in our current circumstance to welcome the peace of God into our mind. It is always there to be called upon. As we let peace quiet our minds, we become open to His Help through which all seeming problems are quietly resolved.
His answers come in many ways. A thought enters our mind on what to do. We hear something in a conversation that helps us—a passage in a book, an unexpected phone call, someone shows up with skills to help. These are just a few of the ways God’s Voice speaks to us. But we need to be attentive by welcoming His peace in our mind.
The more we practice this, the more we will experience His Help throughout the day. The ego’s chatter will fade. We become less willing to respond to it and more willing to respond to God’s Voice. These experiences build upon each other, strengthening our confidence and teaching us that we are not alone. We are still united with our Creator, at Home in His Love.
