⁶In quietness is [the peace of God] acknowledged universally. ⁷For what your inward vision looks upon is your perception of the universe.
Sit quietly and close your eyes. ²The light within you is sufficient. ³It alone has power to give the gift of sight to you. ⁴Exclude the outer world, and let your thoughts fly to the peace within. ⁵They know the way. ⁶For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself.
We practice coming nearer to the light in us today. ²We take our wandering thoughts, and gently bring them back to where they fall in line with all the thoughts we share with God.
…we acknowledge that the peace of God still shines in us, and from us to all living things that share our life. ²We will forgive them all, absolving all the world from what we thought it did to us. ³For it is we who make the world as we would have it. ⁴Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid of sin and open to salvation. ⁵And we lay our saving blessing on it, as we say:
⁶The peace of God is shining in me now.
⁷Let all things shine upon me in that peace, and let me bless them with the light in me. (A Course in Miracles, W-188.5:6–6:6;9:1-2;10. See also ACIM Lesson 188 Insights.)
The body’s eyes cannot show us anything real. True vision comes from within our mind when we are willing to quiet the ego’s chaotic thoughts. We pause today to focus on the peace of God within. We rest in its warm embrace, certain of our safety. We welcome the thoughts of Love that we share with our Father.
From this place of peace in our mind, we offer Love to the world. We let the Light of Love show us the Love that is the truth in every brother. The Light shows us how to answer calls for Love with Love. We are blessed to be God’s messengers of Love to the world.
