Journal for Day 67
LESSON 63
The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness.
“Accept no trivial purpose or meaningless desire in its place, or you will forget your function and leave the Son of God in hell.”
It is in my power to bring peace to all of the Sonship through my forgiveness. What could possibly be more important than that? Is it more important that I be right? Is it more important that I be a success in the world? How about that I fulfill a dream of the perfect relationship? Could upholding the image I prefer to present to the world will be more important than bringing peace to every mind?
What do I put in the place of this function? Watching TV? Shopping? Visiting with friends? Projecting guilt onto others, accepting guilt as my due? Making plans on my own, playing the victim? Indulging fear? These are the kinds of things I have done in the past rather than accepting my function as the light of the world through forgiveness. Some of those I have left behind and the rest are going that way as quickly as I am able.
How do I save the world? By accepting salvation myself. As Jesus has told us, my only function is to accept the Atonement for myself.
Regina’s Tips for this lesson.
Regina wrote this: I have rewritten today’s lesson for me in order to have more motivating power for me. My lesson is:
The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the means God has appointed for the salvation of the world. I am purity, pure peace, pure love, truth unadulterated. That is my nature. My nature is realized through forgiveness.
As I look at this, I feel motivated. Each time I say it to myself, my heart opens. It is the right version of today’s lesson for me. Feel free to find the right version of today’s lesson for you. And then, let additional related thoughts come to you throughout the day.
My thoughts
I relate to forgiveness and to being the light of the world, and to be the salvation of the world. I relate to the fact that I am holy. So I think that the phrasing of todays prayer works for me.
The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the means God has appointed for the salvation of the world.
