My heart is beating in the peace of God.
Surrounding me is all the life that God created in His Love. It calls to me in every heartbeat and in every breath; in every action and in every thought. Peace fills my heart, and floods my body with the purpose of forgiveness. Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the world is given me. Each heartbeat brings me peace; each breath infuses me with strength. I am a messenger of God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever quiet and at peace within His loving Arms. Each heartÂbeat calls His Name, and every one is answered by His Voice, assuring me I am at home in Him.
Let me attend Your Answer, not my own. Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of Love created. It is there and only there that I can be at home. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 267, W-pII.267. See also ACIM Lesson 267 Insights.)
We open the door to God’s peace through forgiveness. When we judge anything on our own, we interfere with the constant flow of peace from the Loving Heart of God. But each time we step back from our perceptions of the world and open our minds to the presence of peace, we accept forgiveness as our purpose. Through forgiveness we recognize the reality of Love beyond our perceptions in the world.
Instead of believing in images of separation in the world, we look past them to the innocence of Christ with Holy Spirit’s help. This day-by-day, moment-by-moment, practice opens our heart to accept the Heart of Love as our own; we learn to see the presence of Love all around us. The images of differences grow dimmer as we let go of our investment in them. The Light of Love is seen more clearly.
Forgiveness is our only meaningful purpose in this world. It is the means by which we awaken to our Life in the Love of God.
