Lesson 355 –
There is no end to all the peace and joy,
and all the miracles that I will give,
when I accept my Creator’s Word. Why not today?
Endless peace and joy. Giving endless miracles. What a world that would be. But wait, that’s the world that is ours. And, yet, many of us can’t see it. We have no idea it even exists. This blissful world of endless peace and joy, of endless love and miracles, is the real world. It is the world that is within us, yet blocked from our awareness by our belief that we are separate. The fact that we have aligned our mind with our egoic thought system blocks our awareness of who we really are and our true nature and essence..
Why do we do this? It doesn’t really matter. The question we might ask ourselves is, “What are we waiting for?” I know we don’t really like this world of separation we seem to exist in, so we might as well shift our minds to a better existence. We are promised a better way. It is there waiting for us to simply accept its gift. The world we leave behind is really nothing more than a misinterpretation of the world we seem to see. We have the wisdom within us to allow Spirit to reveal truth to us by removing the blocks we have placed in its way. How do we shift our minds? This lesson offers the following prayer/affermation to help us get started. We have been practicing and studying the Course enough to begin to allow spirit to reveal a better way to us now.
Why should I wait, my Creator, for the joy You promised me? For You will keep Your Word You gave Your One Child in exile. I am sure my treasure waits for me, and I need but reach out my hand to find it. Even now my fingers touch it. It is very close. I need not wait an instant more to be at peace forever. It is You I choose, and my Identity along with You. Your One Child would be Themself, and know You as their Source and Creator, and their Love. W-pII.355.1:1-8
What are we waiting for? Now is the time. There is nothing left to do but accept the reality of who we are as the One Child of Oneness. No more words. Open your eyes and let infinite peace rise from within you. Let it be so.
