Lesson 242:

This day is God’s. It is my gift to Him…

Duh. Each day is both ours and God’s, as one, ultimately. So too, it is our gift to each other. The point of the lesson is to empty out, completely, our little agendas and wholly open our minds to God’s...

We reside where our awareness is at any given moment... The question is: Where is our awareness? Today, we place our full awareness in our oneness with God through the Holy Spirit within our mind. It is a day of true faith and trust. Trust that the Holy Spirit not only, will handle, perfectly, every circumstance that occurs, with ultimate good for all concerned, but that it has already been done, and our little resistance and interference couldn’t impact it in the least. The Atonement answered the tiny mad idea of separation in a blazing instant of recognition that GOD IS…period…

This is a day, too, of steadfast faithfulness. We place our faith in God’s plan for salvation; which means we give wholehearted faith to all our brothers, knowing that they are doing their part perfectly. Regardless of what the little itch of ego in our minds is trying to serve up; we look past its irritating distractions and straight into the eyes of Christ in our brothers, letting forgiveness tell us what’s what…

This liberates us to a day of appreciation, peace and happiness~ guaranteed by God…

Let’s wrap with the prayer from the lesson, yeah:

And so we give today to You. We come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may think we want. Give us what You would have received by us. You know all our desires and our wants. And You will give us everything we need in helping us to find the way to You…
