Day 300

Today's Lesson:

Only an instant does this world endure.

This is a thought which can be used to say that death and sorrow are the certain lot of all who come here, for their joys are gone before they are possessed, or even grasped. Yet this is also the idea that lets no false perception keep us in its hold, not represent more than a passing cloud upon a sky eternally serene. And it is this serenity we seek, unclouded, obvious and sure, today.

We seek Your holy world today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost our way a while. But we have listened to Your Voice, and learned exactly what to do to be restored to Heaven and our true Identity. And we give thanks today the world endures but for an instant. We would go beyond that tiny instant to eternity.


Miracles I'm noticing:

Yesterday on my way back from my last day with my client in central Minnesota, I listened to Gary Renard's talk about his books The Disappearance of the Universe and Your Immortal Reality. He talks a lot about this Course and what he's learned from it. I need to listen to it again, but what I remember is how really simple everything is when we quit making it so difficult. Things become difficult when we struggle to remember what we have learned at some point from a parent, a teacher, a sibling, a class, a boss - instead of just allowing what IS to resonate with us.

Have you ever had an aha! moment or an instant of clarity or a sudden insight? I think that's what happens when we connect with the Truth - or what we Know deep inside us. If we're too caught up in the world we make, we forget that the Truth allows us to be restored to Heaven and our true Identity, which is not what we think it is. It is not only more wonderful than we think it is, it is more wonderful than we can think. Heaven is eternity and this world is just an instant. So where will we choose to focus - on this world of false perception or the world of serenity?

Let that insight be your miracle today!
