📖 Lesson 30
God is in everything I see because God is in my mind.

♥️ Miracle Principle Nº 47
Miracle-mindedness means miracle-readiness. Readiness means that you should always keep your perceptions straight, so that you will always be ready, willing, and able. These are the essentials for “listen, learn, and do.” You must be ready to listen, willing to learn, and able to do. Only the last is involuntary because it is the application of miracles, which must be Christ-controlled. The other two, which are the voluntary aspects of miracle-mindedness, are up to you.

♥️ Miracle Principle Nº 41
The miracle acknowledges all men as your brothers and mine. It is a way of perceiving the universal mark of God in them. The specialness of God's Sons does not stem from exclusion but from inclusion. All my brothers are special. If they believe they are deprived of anything, their perception becomes distorted. When this occurs, the whole family of God, or the Sonship, is impaired in its relationships. Ultimately, every member of the family of God must return. The miracle calls him to return because it blesses and honors him even though he may be absent in spirit.
“God is not mocked” is not a warning but a reassurance on this point. God would be mocked if any of His creations lacked holiness. The creation is whole, and the mark of wholeness is holiness.

♥️ Miracle Principle Nº 35
Miracles are expressions of love, but it does not follow that they will always [be effective]. I am the only one who can perform miracles indiscriminately because I am the Atonement. You have a role in the Atonement, which I will dictate to you. Ask me which miracles you should perform. This spares you exhaustion, because you will act under direct communication.

📖 Lesson 11
My meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless world.
📖 Lesson 7
I see only the past.
♥️ Miracle Principle Nº 25
Miracles are part of an interlocking chain of forgiveness which, when completed, is the Atonement. This process works all the time and in all the dimensions of time.
I am in charge of the process of Atonement, which I undertook to begin. When you offer a miracle unto any of my brothers, you do it unto yourself and me. The reason you come before me is that I do not need miracles for my own Atonement, but I stand at the end in case you fail temporarily. The purpose of my part in the Atonement is the canceling out of all lacks of love which men could not otherwise correct. The word “sin” should be changed to “lack of love,” because “sin” is a man-made word with threat connotations which he made up himself. No real threat is involved anywhere. Nothing is gained by frightening yourselves, and it is very destructive to do so.
♥️ Miracle Principle Nº 24
Miracles enable man to heal the sick and raise the dead, because he made sickness and death himself and can abolish both. You are a miracle, capable of creating in the likeness of your Creator. Everything else is only your own nightmare and does not exist. Only the creations of light are real.
📖 Lesson 365
This holy instant would I give to You.
Be You in charge. For I would follow You,
certain that Your direction brings me peace.
♥️ Miracle Principle Nº 22
Miracles are associated with fear only because of the fallacious belief that darkness can hide. Man believes that what he cannot see does not exist, and his physical eyes cannot see in the dark. This is a very primitive solution and has led to a denial of the Spiritual eye.1 The escape from darkness involves two stages:
- The recognition that darkness cannot hide. This step usually entails fear.
- The recognition that there is nothing you want to hide, even if you could. This step brings escape from fear.
📣 #ACIM, #ACourseInMiracles, #MiraclePrinciple
The term “Spiritual eye” is later replaced by the Holy Spirit, and the “physical eye” becomes the ego. The emphasis on the two ways of seeing, however, remains throughout. [Note: This footnote by the Scribes is contained in the original 1972 manuscript. –Ed.] ↩︎
📖 Lesson 364
This holy instant would I give to You.
Be You in charge. For I would follow You,
certain that Your direction brings me peace.
📖 Lesson 359
God’s answer is some form of peace. All pain is healed; all misery replaced with joy. All prison doors are opened. And all sin is understood as merely a mistake.
📖 Lesson 356
Sickness is but another name for sin. Healing is but another name for God. The miracle is thus a call to Him.
📖 Lesson 351
My sinless brother is my guide to peace. My sinful brother is my guide to pain. And which I choose to see I will behold.
Introduction
This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the time you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you may elect what you want to take at a given time.
The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.
This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.

2024-08-07Lesson 26 of A Course in Miracles introduces the lesson: “My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability.” This teaching challenges us to recognize the self-destructive nature of our negative thoughts and judgments. By acknowledging that our attack thoughts undermine our true strength and spiritual invulnerability, we open ourselves to healing and inner peace.
This practice invites us to become aware of the harm caused by our critical and judgmental thoughts. By understanding that our attacks on others reflect our own insecurities and fears, we can start to cultivate forgiveness and compassion toward ourselves and others.
Jesus taught about the transformative power of forgiveness and the release of judgment. In Luke 6:37, He says, “Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.” This teaching aligns with ACIM’s guidance to release attack thoughts and choose forgiveness as a path to spiritual liberation and peace.
By practicing Lesson 26, we align ourselves with Christ’s message of unconditional love and healing. We learn to let go of thoughts that reinforce separation and attack, and instead, open ourselves to a deeper connection with divine love and wholeness.
Explore Lesson 26 of A Course in Miracles with us, and discover how releasing attack thoughts can lead to greater inner strength, forgiveness, and spiritual awakening.

Bring your attention to your breath, feeling the sensation of each inhale and exhale.
Reflect on the central theme of Lesson 26: “My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability.”

Acknowledge that when you attack others, you reinforce the belief in separation and undermine your own sense of security.
With each breath, imagine releasing any attachment to attack thoughts, allowing yourself to fully embrace the idea of extending love instead.
Visualize yourself letting go of all thoughts of judgment, criticism, and condemnation, allowing your mind to be filled with peace and love instead.
Feel a sense of empowerment as you choose to extend love and forgiveness to yourself and others, knowing that in doing so, you strengthen your own sense of invulnerability.
Repeat the following affirmations silently or in your mind:
“My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability.”
“I release all attachment to attack thoughts.”
“I choose to extend love and forgiveness to myself and others.”
Allow yourself to rest in this space of peace and forgiveness for a few moments, feeling the strength and security that comes from choosing love over attack.
When you’re ready, gently bring your awareness back to your surroundings. Wiggle your fingers and toes, and slowly open your eyes.

2024-08-07Lesson 25 of A Course in Miracles presents the lesson: “I do not know what anything is for.” This teaching challenges us to question our preconceived notions and interpretations of the world. By acknowledging our limited understanding and releasing the need to assign purposes to everything, we open ourselves to divine guidance and clarity.
This practice invites us to become aware of our tendency to judge and categorize based on our conditioned beliefs. By understanding that our interpretations often stem from fear and separation, we can start to cultivate a mindset of openness and willingness to see beyond appearances.
Jesus often taught about the importance of surrendering to divine guidance and trusting in God’s plan. In Proverbs 3:5-6, it says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” This teaching aligns with ACIM’s guidance to surrender our perceptions and trust in the Holy Spirit’s guidance for true understanding and purpose.
By practicing Lesson 25, we align ourselves with Christ’s message of humility and trust. We learn to release our ego’s need to control and understand, and instead, open ourselves to receive divine wisdom and purpose.
Explore Lesson 25 of A Course in Miracles with us, and discover how letting go of our interpretations can lead to greater clarity, peace, and spiritual awakening.

Bring your attention to your breath, feeling the sensation of each inhale and exhale.
Reflect on the central theme of Lesson 25: “I do not know what anything is for.”

Acknowledge that when you rely solely on your own understanding, you may misinterpret the events and circumstances of your life.
With each breath, imagine releasing any attachment to needing to know the purpose or meaning behind everything, allowing yourself to fully embrace the idea of surrendering to a higher wisdom.
Visualize yourself letting go of the need to have all the answers, trusting instead in the unfolding of life’s mysteries.
Feel a sense of peace and openness as you surrender to the knowledge that there is a greater purpose and meaning behind everything, even if it is not immediately apparent.
Repeat the following affirmations silently or in your mind:
“I do not know what anything is for.”

2024-07-25Lesson 15 of A Course in Miracles presents the lesson: “My thoughts are images that I have made.” This teaching invites us to recognize that our thoughts create the mental images and perceptions that shape our experience of reality. By acknowledging that our thoughts are not inherently true or real, we can begin to take responsibility for the images we hold in our minds.
This practice encourages us to examine the power of our thoughts in shaping our perception of ourselves and the world. By understanding that our thoughts are like images we have constructed, we can start to question their validity and choose thoughts that align with truth and love.
Jesus taught about the importance of purity of heart and the power of thoughts in shaping our lives. In Matthew 5:8, He says, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.” This teaching aligns with ACIM’s guidance to purify our thoughts and see beyond the illusions created by our own mental images.
By practicing Lesson 15, we align ourselves with Christ’s message of inner purity and clarity. We learn to release the false images and perceptions created by our thoughts and open ourselves to a deeper connection with the divine truth within us.
Explore Lesson 15 of A Course in Miracles with us, and discover how transforming your thoughts can lead to greater peace, clarity, and spiritual awakening.
