Into His Presence would I enter now.
This is a day of silence and of trust. It is a special time of promise in your calendar of days. It is a time Heaven has set apart to shine upon, and cast a timeless light upon this day, when echoes of eternity are heard. This day is holy, for it ushers in a new experience; a different kind of feeling and awareness. You have spent long days and nights in celebrating death. Today you learn to feel the joy of life.
As this experience increases and all goals but this become of little worth, the world to which you will return becomes a little closer to the end of time; a little more like Heaven in its ways; a little nearer its deliverance. And you who bring it light will come to see the light more sure; the vision more distinct. The time will come when you will not return in the same form in which you now appear, for you will have no need of it. Yet now it has a purpose, and will serve it well.
…the Holy One, the Giver of the happy dreams of life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide to Heaven given you, has dreamed for you this journey which you make and start today, with the experience this day holds out to you to be your own.
Into Christ’s Presence will we enter now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining face and perfect Love. (W-pI.157A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 157, .1;7:1-2;8:2;9:1. See also ACIM Lesson 157 Insights.)
In this time, when we are instructed to stay at home to protect our bodies, we have another place to go to protect our peace of mind. As we practice opening our minds to Christ’s Presence, we let the fears of the world fade to the background. The Light of Christ fills our awareness and reminds us that we are invulnerable in our true Home where we are sheltered by God’s Love.
As we rest in Christ’s Presence, Love fills our awareness and flows through us to the world. We experience the oneness that includes all brothers. Our mind rests in Christ’s peace. We bring this experience with us to the world and let Its Light shine away the darkness of fear and extend God’s Love.
