Why wait for Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a change at all. Light is not of the world, yet you who bear the light in you are alien here as well. The light came with you from your native home, and stayed with you because it is your own. It is the only thing you bring with you from Him Who is your Source. It shines in you because it lights your home, and leads you back to where it came from and you are at home.
The peace of God is shining in you now, and from your heart extends around the world. It pauses to caress each living thing, and leaves a blessing with it that remains forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all thoughts of the ephemeral and valueless. It brings renewal to all tired hearts, and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give, and you who have received. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 188, W-pI.188.1,3. See also ACIM Lesson 188 Insights.)
We rest in God today… We follow in the way of peace… In peace we see past images of separation and become aware of Love’s Oneness… We let God’s Love fill our minds and hearts with happiness and peace…
In this state of mind we become aware of how to be truly helpful in each now present moment… We see that our real purpose is to accept God’s Love and extend it to the world… We see the difference between the real and the unreal… and let Love heal all false perceptions… We give thanks that only Love is real…
