ACIM T-28.I The Present Memory

September 27, 2011

Be quiet for just a moment. Be still for just a moment. In that moment all that is past or future falls away and we are in the present moment, the now. Spirit has been vigilant in watching and waiting for this moment. This is the moment when what is real and true surfaces. In this moment the miracle comes, for our minds open to the remembrance of the Divine within, to God. In this moment do we experience the Ahhh, the knowing we are home once again. It brings peace to our soul and our mind. It reminds us that we are now and have always been One with God. And as we relax into this stillness, our miracle is extended to all. In that instant our miracle, our healing, becomes everyone’s healing, everyone’s miracle.

All is truly sacred in this instant. It is the holy instant. Our thinking un-tilts, it rights itself without our having to do anything but be still. What a gift this is. What a blessing this is. Enjoy this fully. Drink it in and let it permeate your whole being. Feel it in your bones. This is who we really are, always have been, and always will be. Ion this moment we have glimpsed the correction of our perceiving. We have seen the face of Christ shining from everyone we see. The innocence and beauty of the real world eclipses all we thought we had ever seen, but perceived incorrectly.

Here is our present memory. Here is the memory of God, the Divine Self we are. Our memories of the past hold nothing in the presence of the memory of the Divine. All fear is gone. All thoughts of separateness are gone. Fear’s purpose was to distract us from the remembrance of God, but in this quiet moment we see there was nothing to fear, ever. The illusion of fear, the illusion of separation is gone in the stillness of the present moment. The stillness itself speaks so confidently, so boldly that no fear remains to distract us from what we have remembered. Relax into the stillness and let it wash over you. It is nothing but the extension of God, sacred and innocent. It is Heaven.

Have no fear. God never leaves us stranded; glimpsing a reality we cannot get to. All we fear is false, for we are nothing less than an extension of God, inseparable from God, and One with God for eternity. Simply glimpse eternity and we are there. The awareness of who we really are returns to our mind and thus extends to the mind of all creation. Be still, just for a moment and listen. It will not fail you, Stillness speaks. And it speaks of Divine love and peace. Be still for just a moment and know we are God.
