Accepting Limitless Joy and Peace

Glory to God in the highest, and to you because He has so willed it. ²Ask and it shall be given you, because it has already been given. ³Ask for light and learn that you are light. ⁴If you want understanding and enlightenment you will learn it, because your decision to learn it is the decision to listen to the Teacher Who knows of light, and can therefore teach it to you. ⁵There is no limit on your learning because there is no limit on your mind. ⁶There is no limit on His teaching because He was created to teach. ⁷Understanding His function perfectly He fulfills it perfectly, because that is His joy and yours.

To fulfill the Will of God perfectly is the only joy and peace that can be fully known, because it is the only function that can be fully experienced. ²When this is accomplished, then, there is no other experience. ³Yet the wish for other experience will block its accomplishment, because God’s Will cannot be forced upon you, being an experience of total willingness. ⁴The Holy Spirit understands how to teach this, but you do not. ⁵That is why you need Him, and why God gave Him to you. ⁶Only His teaching will release your will to God’s, uniting it with His power and glory and establishing them as yours. ⁷You share them as God shares them, because this is the natural outcome of their being. (A Course in Miracles, T-8.III.1–2. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

Do we want joy and peace? We can have it without limit by accepting what has already been given us. It is God’s Will that we have all that He has, now and forever. Only our wish to experience separation prevents us from knowing the will we share with our Creator.

We have been given a Teacher in our mind Whose function is to teach us the truth about what we were created to be. We have taught ourselves to believe we are unique and different. Our inner Teacher’s function is to teach us to undo our mistaken beliefs and release our mind to accept God’s Will that we be one with Him in Love. As we learn His lessons, we will know limitless happiness and peace.
