Lesson 213

1. (193) All things are lessons God would have me learn.

A lesson is a miracle which God offers to me, in place of thoughts I made that hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes the way I am set free. And so I choose to learn His lessons and forget my own.

Lesson 212

1. (192) I have a function God would have me fill.

I seek the function that would set me free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I accept as mine.

Lesson 211

1. (191) I am the holy Son of God Himself.

In silence and in true humility I seek God's glory, to behold it in the Son whom He created as my Self.

Lesson 210

1. (190) I choose the joy of God instead of pain.

Pain is my own idea. It is not a Thought of God, but one I thought apart from Him and from His Will. His Will is joy, and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I choose, instead of what I made.

Lesson 209

1. (189) I feel the Love of God within me now.

The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of God within me sets me free.

Lesson 208

1, (188) The peace of God is shining in me now.

I will be still, and let the earth be still along with me. And in that stillness we will find the peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to God Himself.

Lesson 207

I bless the world because I bless myself.

God's blessing shines upon me from within my heart, where He abides. I need but turn to Him, and every sorrow melts away, as I accept His boundless Love for me.

Lesson 206

1. (186) Salvation of the world depends on me.

...and I would give His gifts where He intended them to be.

Lesson 205

1. (185) I want the peace of God.

The peace of God is everything I want, my one goal, the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my purpose, my function, and my life, while I abide where I am not at home.

Lesson 204

1. (184) The Name of God is my inheritance.

God's Name reminds me that I am His Son, not slave to time, unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in God, forever and forever one with Him.

Lesson 203

1. (183) I call upon God's Name and on my own.

The Name of God is my deliverance from every thought of evil and of sin, because it is my own as well as His.

Lesson 202

1. (182) I will be still an instant and go home.

Why would I choose to stay an instant more where I do not belong, when God Himself has given me His Voice to call me home?

Lesson 201

(181) I trust my brothers, who are one with me.
No one but is my borther. I'm blessed with oneness with the universe and God, my Father, one Creater of the whole that is my Self forever One with me.

Lesson 200

There is no peace except the peace of God.

And I am glad and thankful it is so.

Lesson 199

I am not a body. I am free.

LESSON 198

Only my condemnation injures me.

.. freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the gift you gave.
