Lesson 253 My Self is ruler of the universe. It is impossible that anything should come to me unbidden by myself. Even in this world, it is I who rule my destiny. What happens is what I desire. What does not occur is what I do not want to happen. This must I accept. ForContinue reading “Lesson 253”

Lesson 252
Lesson 252 The Son of God is my Identity. My Self is holy beyond all the thoughts of holiness of which I now conceive. Its shimmering and perfect purity is far more brilliant than is any light that I have ever looked upon. Its love is limitless, with an intensity that holds all things withinContinue reading “Lesson 252”
4. What is Sin?
Section 4. What is Sin? Sin is insanity. It is the means by which the mind is driven mad, and seeks to let illusions take the place of truth. And being mad, it sees illusions where the truth should be, and where it really is. Sin gave the body eyes, for what is there theContinue reading “4. What is Sin?”
Lesson 251
LESSON 251 I am in need of nothing but the truth. I sought for many things, and found despair. Now do I seek but one, for in that one is all I need, and only what I need. All that I sought before I needed not, and did not even want. My only need IContinue reading “Lesson 251”
Lesson 250
Lesson 250 Let me not see myself as limited. Let me behold the Son of God today, and witness to his glory.

Lesson 248
Lesson 248 Whatever suffers is not part of me. I have disowned the truth. Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. Whatever suffers is not part of me. What grieves is not myself. What is in pain is but illusion in my mind. What dies was never living in reality, and did butContinue reading “Lesson 248”
Lesson 247
Lesson 247 Without forgiveness I will still be blind. Sin is the symbol of attack. Behold it anywhere, and I will suffer. For forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ’s vision comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the simple truth, and I am healed completely. Brother, come and letContinue reading “Lesson 247”
Lesson 246
Lesson 246 To love my Father is to love His Son. Let me not think that I can find the way to God, if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God’s Son, and think that I can know his Father or my Self. Let me not fail to recognizeContinue reading “Lesson 246”
Lesson 245
Lesson 245 Your peace is with me, Father. I am safe. Your peace surrounds me, Father. Where I go, Your peace goes there with me. It sheds its light on everyone I meet. I bring it to the desolate and lonely and afraid. I give Your peace to those who suffer pain, or grieve forContinue reading “Lesson 245”
