“I rest in God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you seek. “I rest in God.” This thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth in everyone and everything there is. Here is the end of suffering for all the world, and everyone who ever came and yet will come to linger for a while. Here is the thought in which the Son of God is born again, to recognize himself.
“I rest in God.” Completely undismayed, this thought will carry you through storms and strife, past misery and pain, past loss and death, and onward to the certainty of God. There is no suffering it cannot heal. There is no problem that it cannot solve. And no appearance but will turn to truth before the eyes of you who rest in God. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 109, W-pI.109.2-3. See also ACIM Lesson 109 Insights.)
There is a Light in us that can guide us through all stormy times — all times of uncertainty, sadness or pain. We open to that Light as we let ourselves rest in God. The certainty and strength of God are ever present, offering us His safety and comfort. We need only pause in any moment and let ourselves sink deeply into God’s perfect peace. This peace is always available to be experienced.
Today is a day to remember to rest in the stillness of God’s Love.
