Is it not [God] Who knows the way to you? You need not know the way to Him.
And so today we do not choose the way in which we go to Him. But we do choose to let Him come. And with this choice we rest. And in our quiet hearts and open minds, His Love will blaze its pathway of itself. What has not been denied is surely there, if it be true and can be surely reached. God knows His Son, and knows the way to him. He does not need His Son to show Him how to find His way. Through every opened door His Love shines outward from its home within, and lightens up the world in innocence.
Father, we do not know the way to You. But we have called, and You have answered us. We will not interfere. Salvation’s ways are not our own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no thoughts we think apart from You, and cherish no beliefs of what we are, or Who created us. Yours is the way that we would find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, which is our own as well, be done in us and in the world, that it become a part of Heaven now. Amen. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 189, W-pI.189.8:1-2;9-10. See also ACIM Lesson 189 Insights.)
It does not seem that our experiences in the world are illusions with no substance whatsoever. It is our belief in the reality of the world’s images of separation that makes them a barrier to the awareness of the changeless Love we are. We have Help to remove these self-made barriers.
We accept this Help by quieting our minds and welcoming the peace and Love of God within. As we step back and let Him lead the way, His Light will shine upon the world. This Light will reveal to us that the forms of the world can have no effect whatsoever on What we are — Love and nothing else. We need do nothing but be willing to welcome the Light in our minds by bringing all our perceptions to It.
The Light of Love will show us the pathway Home. We will recognize our beliefs are mistaken and the seeming reality of the world will fade away. Today we practice bringing all our perceptions to the Light of Love within to learn what is real and what is unreal. We have all the Help we need. Our success is guaranteed. We need only be willing to receive God’s gift of Love.
