Peace Comes with Accepting God’s Will as Ours

The Communication Link that God Himself placed within you, joining your mind with His, cannot be broken. ²You may believe you want It broken, and this belief does interfere with the deep peace in which the sweet and constant communication God would share with you is known. ³Yet His channels of reaching out cannot be wholly closed and separated from Him. ⁴Peace will be yours because His peace still flows to you from Him Whose Will is peace. ⁵You have it now. ⁶The Holy Spirit will teach you how to use it, and by extending it, to learn that it is in you. ⁷God willed you Heaven, and will always will you nothing else. ⁸The Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. ⁹There is no chance that Heaven will not be yours, for God is sure, and what He wills is as sure as He is.

⁵Learn that even the darkest nightmare that disturbs the mind of God’s sleeping Son holds no power over him. ⁶He will learn the lesson of awaking. ⁷God watches over him and light surrounds him.

⁵You do not have to know that Heaven is yours to make it so. ⁶It is so. ⁷Yet to know it, the Will of God must be accepted as your will. (A Course in Miracles, T-13.XI.8;9:5-7;10:5-7. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

It is always possible to touch the peace of God that dwells within us. But we must be willing to accept His Will for us. If we believe we want separation and specialness, then we are rejecting God’s Will for His Son. Instead we are choosing the ego whose wish is that death be real along with deprivation, conflict, guilt and fear. The ego is the denial of God’s eternal Love. It is not our identity. But if we believe we want what the ego offers, we will believe the ego is our identity.

The Holy Spirit is given us to teach us first that what the ego offers we do not really want. Second, To teach us that God’s Will is our will for we do want His peace, happiness and Love.

Today we practice reminding ourselves, “God’s Will is my will. I want His peace. I want His joy and Love. I want to awaken to the loving Home God wills for me.”
