Be in my mind, my Father, through the day.
Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake, and shine on me throughout the day today. ²Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You. ³And let me not forget my hourly thanksgiving that You have remained with me, and always will be there to hear my call to You and answer me. ⁴As evening comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and of Your Love. ⁵And let me sleep sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and happily aware I am Your Son.
This is as every day should be. ²Today, practice the end of fear. ³Have faith in Him Who is your Father. ⁴Trust all things to Him. ⁵Let Him reveal all things to you, and be you undismayed because you are His Son. (A Course in Miracles, W-232. See also ACIM Lesson 232 Insights.)
The ego is always in opposition to God. In order to fulfill its desire for specialness, it must keep the oneness of God’s Love out of mind. The cost for this wish is pain and suffering, fear and death.
In this lesson we are offered a prayer to reverse the ego’s opposition. We truly do want God in our mind. The Mind of our true Self is one with the Mind of God. The split mind of the ego is only a fantasy. It conjures myriad images that seem to make a world of differences. Yet our true Mind remains whole and complete in the Mind of God.
As we are willing to accept the thoughts of Love we share with God, the guilt and fear that comes into the ego split mind fades. We rest in perfect peace, knowing we are God’s Son, forever united with Him.
