From Ego’s Denial to Accepting God’s Peace

Peace to my mind. Let all my thoughts be still.

Father, I come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will hear my call and answer me.

Now do we wait in quiet. God is here, because we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent; to hear our Father’s answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His Son. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 221, W-pII.221. See also ACIM Lesson 221 Insights.)

God has already given us His peace, for He has given all of Himself to His Son. To experience His peace, we need only accept it. That means we need to stop listening to the ego’s constant stream of thoughts based on belief in separation. Its thoughts deny Love and consequently deny God’s peace.

Today let’s join together in the practice of quieting our mind. We let the ego’s thoughts pass by as we choose not to listen. Like the bullfighter says “Olé!” to the charging bull, we say “Olé!” to the ego’s thoughts. They cannot harm us nor change the reality of our Identity.

We remain as God created us. We claim His peace as we listen to His Voice. We let the vision of Love supersede the ego’s denial. We become more and more aware of the peace of God within and give it to the world.
