The Bridge of Peace

Peace is the bridge that everyone will cross, to leave this world behind. But peace begins within the world perceived as different, and leading from this fresh perception to the gate of Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting goals, to senseless journeys, frantic, vain pursuits, and meaningless endeavors. Now the way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where freedom lies within the peace of God. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.200.8)

Being opposites, peace and conflict cannot coexist. The path to peace in the world is to let go of our judgments that are the foundation of conflict. This is why forgiveness is the path to peace. As we learn to see the world through forgiving eyes, we clear the way to experience the real world, free of judgment, where we recognize the innocence of all our brothers and ourselves. We cannot reach this place without help from outside the thought system of conflict, judgment, guilt and fear.

God gave us this help through the Holy Spirit, Who sees the illusions that seem to bind us, but does not believe them and knows they are nothing. Today we will take another step on the bridge of peace as we practice bringing all our thoughts to the Holy Spirit with willingness to receive His perception of the truth in place of our illusions. Thus we will have a day of peace.
