Remembering Our Safety in God’s Love

God is my refuge and security.

I will identify with what I think is refuge and security. ²I will behold myself where I perceive my strength, and think I live within the citadel where I am safe and cannot be attacked. ³Let me today seek not security in danger, nor attempt to find my peace in murderous attack. ⁴I live in God. ⁵In Him I find my refuge and my strength. ⁶In Him is my Identity. ⁷In Him is everlasting peace. ⁸And only there will I remember Who I really am.

Let me not seek for idols. ²I would come, my Father, home to You today. ³I choose to be as You created me, and find the Son whom You created as my Self. (A Course in Miracles, W-261. See also ACIM Lesson 261 Insights.)

The ego is the idea that the way to protect our separate identity is to hide it from the world. By seeking isolation, it hides from perceived enemies who would try to attack and destroy its unique image.

This isolation denies the one state where safety and perfect peace abide — the changeless Love of God. Today we come to our Father in gratitude for the certainty of His everlasting Love.
