Welcoming God’s Gifts

Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake, and shine on me throughout the day today. Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You. And let me not forget my hourly thanksgiving that You have remained with me, and always will be there to hear my call to You and answer me. As evening comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and of Your Love. And let me sleep sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and happily aware I am Your Son.

This is as every day should be. Today, practice the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust all things to Him. Let Him reveal all things to you, and be you undismayed because you are His Son. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 232, W-pII.232.1-2. See also ACIM Lesson 232 Insights.)

What do we really want? Do we want a sense of safety, protection, deep peace, joy beyond words and the certainty of changeless love? All this is already given us, it is already ours. We need only accept the gift to have it be our experience.

We experience the world of form only because we want something other than God’s gifts. We have convinced ourselves that things in the world are more valuable and desirable than God’s changeless Love. This belief has blinded us to the gifts that are already ours, leaving us in a constant condition of seeking and not finding Love.

But we can change our belief. We made a choice that made Love unknown to us. But we can make another choice. We need only welcome God’s Love again. It is still there; it never left. We want to remember that God is in our mind, now and forever. We want to remember that we are eternally held safe in our Father, where nothing can change the Love we are; where nothing is ever lost and where our perfect happiness is guaranteed.

Today we invite the memory of God to return.
