The Certainty of God’s Love Keeps Us Safe

The miracle comes quietly into the mind that stops an instant and is still. ²It reaches gently from that quiet time, and from the mind it healed in quiet then, to other minds to share its quietness. ³And they will join in doing nothing to prevent its radiant extension back into the Mind which caused all minds to be. ⁴Born out of sharing, there can be no pause in time to cause the miracle delay in hastening to all unquiet minds, and bringing them an instant’s stillness, when the memory of God returns to them. ⁵Their own remembering is quiet now, and what has come to take its place will not be wholly unremembered afterwards.

He to Whom time is given offers thanks for every quiet instant given Him. ²For in that instant is God’s memory allowed to offer all its treasures to the Son of God, for whom they have been kept. …⁵The instant’s silence that His Son accepts gives welcome to eternity and Him, and lets Them enter where They would abide. ⁶For in that instant does the Son of God do nothing that would make himself afraid.

How instantly the memory of God arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the memory away! (A Course in Miracles, T-28.I.11;12:1-2,5-6;13:1. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

No matter how entrenched we have become in the dream of separation, the memory of God is still in our mind. The dream is cluttered with distractions that attract our attention. Some are attractive because we believe they will bring happiness. Others attract our attention because they seem to portend harm to defend against. These distractions serve the ego’s purpose of hiding the presence of Love which it denies.

True happiness and safety are available to us when we remember our oneness with God. He has already shared His joy with His Son. Our forgetting has not stopped His sharing, only hidden it. The certainty of His Love keeps us safe. What cannot be changed cannot be harmed. The Love with which He embraces His Son keeps His Son perfectly safe.

We remember this Reality when we pause to accept His peace. In that instant the memory of God comes forth. It is the memory of the present moment that never changes. It is the forgetting of the illusions of the past that were never real. We welcome God’s peace today to undo memories of illusions of the past, and dwell in the present moment.
