We ask for rest today, and quietness unshaken by the world’s appearances. We ask for peace and stillness, in the midst of all the turmoil born of clashing dreams. We ask for safety and for happiness, although we seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that will answer our asking with what we request.
‘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. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.109.1:1-4;2:1-4. See also ACIM Lesson 109 Insights.)
Every disturbance to our peace, every fear or thought of guilt, is healed as we accept the fact that we rest in God, in Love. Any disturbance to our peace thus becomes a signal to remind ourselves that we rest right now in the quiet certainty of changeless Love. There is no other place to be. There is no other state or condition that could be real. We rest in changeless Love, our refuge and our Home.
Today we will remind ourselves often that we rest in Love, we rest in God. As we accept this, we join with our brothers in this rest. The world of seeming conflict becomes more peaceful, leading to its full transformation into the real world, where only Love is recognized as true.
