God’s attraction for you remains unlimited, but because your power, being of God, is as great as God’s, you can turn away from love. What you invest in guilt you withdraw from God. And your sight grows weak and dim and limited, for you have attempted to separate God and Child, and limit Their communication. Seek not Atonement in further separation.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles
The world you see is an illusion of a world. God did not create it, for what God creates must be eternal like God.
Jesus, A Course in Miracles
The holiest spot on earth is where an ancient hatred has become a present love.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles
Forgiveness is the only gift I give, because it is the only gift I want. And everything I give I give myself. This is Salvation’s simple formula. And I, who would be saved, would make it mine, to be the way I live within a world that needs salvation, and that will be saved as I accept Attonement for myself.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles L.297
I have conceived of time in such a way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past time to timelessness, I must change my perception of what time is for. Time’s purpose cannot be to keep the past and future one.
The only interval in which I can be saved from time is now. For in this instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The birth of Christ is now, without a past or future. Christ has come to give the present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and love. And love is ever-present, here and now.
Thanks for this instant, God. It is now I am redeemed. This instant is the time You have appointed for Your Children’s release, and for salvation of the world in them.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles
God, Your Will is mine, and only that. There is no other will for me to have. Let me not try to make another will, for it is senseless and will cause me pain. You Will alone can bring me happiness, and only Yours exists.
If I would have what only You can give, I must accept Your Will for me, and enter into peace where conflict is impossible, Your Child is one with You in being and in will, and nothing contradicts the holy truth that I remain as You created me.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles
What but Christ’s vision would I use today, when it can offer me a day in which I see a world so like to Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me?
Today I can forget the world I made.
Today I can go past all fear, and be restored to love and holiness and peace. Today I am redeemed, and born anew into a world of mercy and of care; of loving kindness and the peace of God.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles L306
God asks for nothing, and God’s Children, like God, need ask for nothing. For there is no lack in God.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles C28.VII.1
There is no middle ground in any aspect of salvation. You accept it wholly or accept it not.
Either there is a gap between you and your brothers and sisters, or you are as one.
There is no in between, no other choice, and no allegiance to be split between the two. A split allegiance is but faithlessness to both, and merely sets you spinning round, to grasp uncertainty at any straw that seems to hold some promise of relief.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles C28.VII.2.7
Let not my world obscure the sight of Christ.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles L.304
Lord, our eyes are opening at last… Now we see that darkness is our own imagining, and light is there for us to look upon. Christ’s vision changes darkness into light, for fear must disappear when love has come.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles L.302
God’s promises make no exception. And God guarantees that only joy can be the final outcome found for everything.
~ Jesus, A Course in Miracles L.292
