How to Bring Peace and Joy to a Troubled World

There are no laws but God’s. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs today, and hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that speaks the truth to you. You will be listening to One Who says there is no loss under the laws of God. Payment is neither given nor received. Exchange cannot be made; there are no substitutes; and nothing is replaced by something else. God’s laws forever give and never take.

Hear Him Who tells you this, and realize how foolish are the “laws” you thought upheld the world you thought you saw. Then listen further. He will tell you more. About the Love your Father has for you. About the endless joy He offers you. About His yearning for His only Son, created as His channel for creation; denied to Him by his [Son’s] belief in hell.

Let us today open God’s channels to Him, and let His Will extend through us to Him. Thus is creation [extension of Love] endlessly increased. His Voice will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 76, W-pI.76.9:1-11:3. See also ACIM Lesson 76 Insights.)

We obey God’s Law by extending Love’s oneness. Our true Self does this by Its nature. It sees nothing as separate. It sees only the Love in every brother, united with Itself in our Creator. This is the Self that shares Heaven’s joy and wishes only to extend the Love It is.

The world we see with separate images defined by differences, capable of change or harm, is a defense against God’s Law. It begins with an image of a separate self from which a world is projected that seems to prove the reality of separation. If only Love is real, this could never be true. We are believing in a mistaken set of laws that bind us to a false identity.

Let us join together today to quiet our minds and wait for His Voice to help us see past the laws of limitation and accept the law of limitless Love. With His help, we will become aware of the Love behind the fearful or angry calls for Love that stem from false perception. With this vision, the innate Love of our true Self will respond with Love. This is how we bring peace and joy to the world.
