Day 272

Today's Lesson:

How can illusions satisfy God's Son?

Father, the truth belongs to me. My home is set in Heaven by Your Will and mine. Can dreams content me? Can illusions bring me happiness? What but Your memory can satisfy Your Son? I will accept no less than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle and forever safe. God's Son must be as You created him.

Today we pass illusions by. And if we hear temptation call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be content with dreams, when Heaven can be chosen just as easily as hell, and love will happily replace all fear.

Miracles I'm noticing:

This course really is about mind re-training. I'm noticing that awareness is the first step. When I become aware of the way I'm thinking and notice the results of that thinking, I then am able to choose a new thought or a new way of thinking. When I become aware of the illusions instead of the truth, I can choose not to be tempted by those illusions. It really comes down to how I feel. I never felt good when limited by religion and the rules and beliefs that were passed down for no reason except "that's the way it is." I feel so much more free to connect with Spirit by studying this course. And the best part is that I am studying it with a group. That's why this is so important to me. I learn what I learn on my own, but then have an opportunity to learn from my friends and fellow students. That's a miracle for me!
