God is my strength. Vision is His gift.
The idea for today combines two very powerful thoughts, both of major importance. It also sets forth a cause and effect relationship that explains why you cannot fail in your efforts to achieve the goal of the course. You will see because it is the Will of God. It is His strength, not your own, that gives you power. And it is His gift, rather than your own, that offers vision to you.
God is indeed your strength, and what He gives is truly given. This means that you can receive it any time and anywhere, wherever you are, and in whatever circumstance you find yourself. Your passage through time and space is not at random. You cannot but be in the right place at the right time. Such is the strength of God. Such are His gifts.
The idea for the day is a beginning step in bringing thoughts together, and teaching you that you are studying a unified thought system in which nothing is lacking that is needed, and nothing is included that is contradictory or irrelevant. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 42. See also ACIM Lesson 42 Insights., W-pI.42.1-2;7:2)
God is our strength. We can do anything that is our/God’s Will. Seeing the face of Christ in all our brothers is our natural ability. It is easy to see innocence because God gave us the ability to see it. God’s strength is always available to help us see. Whenever we are in fear, we can always call on God’s strength in us to help us see Love. The vision given us by God shows us innocence and nothing else. With this vision, we see past judgment to Love.
Let’s join in remembering that God is our strength and vision is His gift today.
