Lesson 233 ~ I ask God to guide me today.

I think I live in a world as an independent being, making my own choices and decisions, determining my own successes and failures.  Yet this is the cause of all my problems.  I am NOT a separate being, living on a planet spinning around in space.  There is no world.  There are no bodies.  Mind is the ONLY Reality and I am Part of the Mind of God.  I do NOT exist, create, move, think or choose apart from God. The thought of "separation" is the cause of all grief, impatience, anxiety, hatred, anger, injustice, annoyance, and unfairness.  Father I give You all my thoughts today, for in Reality I cannot think apart from You.  The thoughts I have in the world of dreams are not even my Real Thoughts.  My thoughts are preoccupied with illusions and madness.  In place of these thoughts, give me Your Own.  Instead of seeking for that which can never be found, I ask to do Your Will instead.  Today I come to You.  I will step back and merely follow You.  I will not question the Wisdom of the Infinite and I will not question a Love I cannot comprehend, both of which are Your Perfect Gift to me.  Today I have one Guide to lead me.  I will give this day to Him with no reservations at all.  I walk this day with Him and so it is a day of countless Gifts and Mercies.

Lesson 232 ~ Father, be in my mind throughout the day.

Father, be in my mind and Shine on me throughout the day.  Let every waking minute be a time in which I dwell with You.  Whenever I call on You, You will Answer me.  Let me sleep Sure of my Safety, Certain of Your Care, and Happily Aware than I am Your Son.  This is as every day should be.  Today I practice the end of fear.  I will trust everything to my Father, Who will reveal All Things to me.  I will replace the darkness in my mind with the Joy and Love of God.  I will exchange thoughts of dreams for Thoughts of Truth.  And my heart will be glad. 

Lesson 231 ~ I want only to remember my Father.

Perhaps I think I want or need something in the world of dreams; a "something" I have called by many names.  I have been unable to experience My Father's Love because I have been preoccupied with a fantasy of separation from God.  Yet the only thing I need look for is my Father and His Love.  I do not even need look for It, for It has Always Been.  Father there is nothing else that I could ever really want to find.  Let me remember You.  What else could I desire but Truth?  This is my will and I share this will with all my brothers in time.  To remember God is Heaven.  This I seek and only This I need find.

Lesson 230 ~ I will seek and find the Peace of God.

I was created in Peace, and in Peace do I remain.  The Power of Creation was not given me to change myself from the Holy Son of God to a soul trapped in a body living in a world of chaos and changing emotions.  When God created me, He gave me Peace Forever.  Though I can imagine that I am without Peace in a world that offers no escape from death, I remain in Peace as my Father created me.  Today, I ask only to be as God created me to be.  Will God deny me this, when what He created is Eternal and Forever True?  Father I seek only the Peace you gave me.  What you gave must be here now.  Your Creation is apart from time and space and remains beyond all change.  The Peace Your Son was born into, in Your Mind, is still Shining There Unchanged.  I am as You created me.  I only need to call on You to find the Peace You gave.  It is Your Will, Father, that Your Son have Your Peace. 

Lesson 230 ~ I will seek and find the Peace of God.

I was created in Peace, and in Peace do I remain.  The Power of Creation was not given me to change myself from the Holy Son of God to a soul trapped in a body living in a world of chaos and changing emotions.  When God created me, He gave me Peace Forever.  Though I can imagine that I am without Peace in a world that offers no escape from death, I remain in Peace as my Father created me.  Today, I ask only to be as God created me to be.  Will God deny me this, when what He created is Eternal and Forever True?  Father I seek only the Peace you gave me.  What you gave must be here now.  Your Creation is apart from time and space and remains beyond all change.  The Peace Your Son was born into, in Your Mind, is still Shining There Unchanged.  I am as You created me.  I only need to call on You to find the Peace You gave.  It is Your Will, Father, that Your Son have Your Peace. 

Lesson 229 ~ Love, Which Created me, is What I am.

I seek my Identity and find it in these words:  "Love, Which created me, is What I am." I need look no more.  Love has prevailed.  So Still and Sure, It waited for my coming Home.  I will stop looking for Love where it can never be.  I will no longer turn away from the Holy Face of God and the Reality of my Self as His Son.  Father, I thank You for What I am; for keeping my Identity as Your Son Safe for me, though I seemed to lay it aside to dream.  I Thank You that illusions are not Real and that my Reality is with You in Perfect and Eternal Peace and Love. 

Lesson 228 ~ I am very Holy.

My Father Knows my Holiness.  Will I deny God's Knowing and instead, believe in a world of dreams?  A world apart from Perfect and Eternal Love, Joy, Freedom, Contentment, and Peace is possible only in fantasy and dreams.  I will take God's Word for what I am.  God is my Creator and One Who Knows the True Condition of His Son.  He does not condemn me, therefore I cannot condemn myself.  Father I was mistaken in myself.  I failed to realize that You are my Source.  Perfect Holiness is Who I am.  I have not left You to enter into a body and die.  My Holiness is part of me as I am a Part of You.  My mistakes about who I am are just dreams.  I let them go today.  I take Your Word alone, for Who I Really Am. 

Lesson 227 ~ Today is my Awakening.

The Father's Will and mine are One.  I can lay this Reality aside and indulge in a fantasy of "separation," but nevertheless, Truth is True for now and Always.  Nothing I think "apart from" the Will of God exists.  Anything I think outside of Love, Peace, Wholeness and Unity, Joy, Serenity, and Contentment is not Reality.  I am Free of the world of dreams!  I was mistaken that it was my "reality."  Now I lay my dream at the feet of Truth to be removed forever from my mind.  This is my Holy moment of release.  Father, I know my will is One with Yours.  Today is my glad return to Heaven, which I never left.  Today, the Son of God lays down his dreams.  Today, the Son of God is Home!  He is released from "sin" and drenched in Holiness, with his Right Mind restored to him at last.
