The Power of God Is in Us

[Trust] is the foundation on which [teachers’ of God) ability to fulfill their function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the [real] world, because they have learned it is not governed by the laws the world made up. It is governed by a power that is in [the teachers of God] but not of them. It is this power that keeps all things safe. It is through this power that the teachers of God look on a forgiven world.

When this power has once been experienced, it is impossible to trust one’s own petty strength again. Who would attempt to fly with the tiny wings of a sparrow when the mighty power of an eagle has been given him? And who would place his faith in the shabby offerings of the ego when the gifts of God are laid before him? (A Course in Miracles, M-4.I.1-2)

When we perceive the world as a body, there are myriad reasons to feel unsafe, weak and vulnerable. But this perception comes from believing illusions are real and that we are separate from the only real Source of strength — our Creator. The correction of this misperception comes with accepting our true Self’s vision.

Our true Self does not believe we are separate from our Creator. It remembers we are Love, all that is Real. With the strength and power of God in us, there is nothing to fear. God is invincible and so is our true Self. No harm can come to what God created changeless as Himself.

Trust comes to us as we accept our true Self as our Identity and disown the false identity made by the ego. In truth, we walk with God, sharing all His Love, His strength, His peace and joy. We will remind ourselves often of this today.
