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 body is a barrier made to wall us off from the Love of God. It keeps us separated from Reality and only provides confirmation that we live in an imaginary world. In this world we are not safe and must constantly plan for our protection. This is all a nightmare that could never be true.
Our real Life is in God. He is our Source and our strength. God does not change the Love He is. In this we can trust that we remain eternally united with Him. In God we trust because He is all that is Real. There is no conflict in Love and no harm can come because Love is changeless. We live in God. We affirm this fact today to remember that we live in perfect safety. We live in peace.
