Lesson 188 The peace of God is shining in me now. Why wait for Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a change at all. Light is not of the world, yet you who bear the light in youContinue reading “Lesson 188”

Lesson 187 I bless the world because I bless myself. No one can give unless he has. In fact, giving is proof of having. We have made this point before. What seems to make it hard to credit is not this. No one can doubt that you must first possess what you would give. ItContinue reading “Lesson 187”

Lesson 186 Salvation of the world depends on me. Here is the statement that will one day take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the thought of true humility, which holds no function as your own but that which has been given you. It offers your acceptance of a part assigned to you,Continue reading “Lesson 186”

Lesson 185 I want the peace of God. To say these words is nothing. But to mean these words is everything.

Heaven would be completely given back toContinue reading “Lesson 185”

Lesson 182 I will be still an instant and go home. This world you seem to live in is not home to you. And somewhere in your mind you know that this is true. A memory of home keeps haunting you, as if there were a place that called you to return, although you doContinue reading “Lesson 182”

Lesson 181 I trust my brothers, who are one with me. Trusting your brothers is essential to establishing and holding up your faith in your ability to transcend doubt and lack of sure conviction in yourself. When you attack a brother, you proclaim that he is limited by what you have perceived in him. YouContinue reading “Lesson 181”
