A New Way to See

A Harmless Changing Dream

Hello Everyone!
I copied sentences that stood out for me, from Lesson 165: “Let not my mind deny the Thought of God.” They are in paragraphs 2,4,7 &8.
“The Thought of God protects you, cares for you, makes soft your resting place and smooth your way, lighting your mind with happiness and love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in your mind because the Thought of God has left you not, and still abides in you.”

“Deny not Heaven. It is yours today, only for the asking. Nor need you perceive how great the gift, how changed your mind will be before it comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is given you. Conviction lies within it. Till you welcome it as yours, uncertainty remains. Yet God is fair. Sureness is not required to receive what only your acceptance can bestow.”

“Your doubts are meaningless, for God is certain. And the Thought of Him is never absent. Sureness must abide within you who are host to Him.  “We count on God, not upon our selves, to give us certainty. And in His Name we practice as His Word directs we do. His sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His Love remains beyond our every fear. The Thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in our minds, according to His Will.”  (Italics are mine)


I was open to todays lesson—and am grateful for it. The truth needs constant repetition in my mind, as I have misplaced the truth with all my dreaming. And as Jesus says: “this need not be.”


Spirit: The mind that thinks that it is alone, cannot know—- and cannot judge. Remember this, and realize that you are not alone, so you cannot think alone. You remain as the Thought of God created you. If you remembered always that the Thought of God is your life, how joyous would you feel!!     
You would have no doubts, no fears, no expectations. You would accept wholly that you are Where God intended you to be; you would recognize Heaven everywhere, everyone as part of yourself.


Think of all the “changes” in the world, or in your life. Changes in “nature”—the weather, the climate, the soil, the water, plants, animals. These changes—that have been programed by the delusional mind—make witness to differences. Justifying differences makes it seem plausible that no other person can be like you. And if you are like no one else, then how can you be ‘one’ with anything?    Whereas if you let Holy Spirit show you that changes only reflect the unreal, and the unreal cannot change reality, you will no longer be concerned with changes in the outer world or your life. You can walk in the dream and be the bringer of hope, compassion and Light. You can detach from the dream, seeing with Christ’s eyes the Love that shines in everything.

Sara, you are the gift to the world. You are God’s gift to Himself. Love only can extend love. Love is unfathomable to the mind that has chosen to forget. When you choose again and listen to the Voice for Love, then you have chosen to remember what is forever true. When you choose to have a happy day, then you have chosen for Love, chosen for God. When you deny the voice of the ego system, you are choosing truth, reality or Heaven. 

Learn to deny that shrieking voice in anything it offers; remember that is is false and it cannot know what anything is for. None of it’s world is true, yet you can learn to see the world as harmless.     
See the world as a harmless, changing dream, and bit by bit the ego system will disappear.
