The Kingdom of God is within my mind;
there is nothing external to myself. All minds are constantly sharing in total Oneness. At
the inner (mind) level I create everything that happens to me. Every aspect of every
relationship is a mutual choice. Everything I experience is as free as thought. So I must
be vigilant with my thoughts to make them compatible with Love.
FORGIVE
“Only
in someone else can I forgive myself and know myself.”
Set Goal – I decide the kind of day
I want, the kind of world I want to see and I commit to practice.
At the first sign of irritation, I
stop and remember it is the result of my
perceptual error.
I choose to look beyond it for the
peaceful, loving face of Christ in my brother.
I ask the Holy Spirit/J for help
to do this.
Key points to remember:
I can give up my attack thoughts because
the situation is an illusion; I dreamt it.
My brother and I are innocent. My brother
is merely fulfilling the role I gave him.
The Holy Spirit will help me to see
peace, and the situation will turn out well for us. I let the Holy Spirit in me take
charge. I do not judge the form forgiveness takes, or try to set it in an earthly frame.
As I free myself of any imagined hurts or
desire to attack, I become able to join with my brother, remembering only good things
about him.
PRAY
“Prayer
is part of forgiveness as long as forgiveness remains unattained.”
Prayer is the greatest gift of God; the
song the Son sings to the Father, Who returns the thanks offered Him unto the Son in
joyous concord of Love.
When I pray I give myself up to be at one
with Love. God is the goal of every prayer, and prayer brings the peace of God.
I close my eyes, take some slow,
deep breaths, and become still,
I put everything I value and all
my thoughts aside.
I thank God in silent, joyful
appreciation.
Practice of forgiveness and prayer leads
to miracles and to God. I discover the freedom to be whatever I wish in cooperation with
All That Is, and I will experience joy beyond anything I can imagine.
