To look within is but to find my will as God created it, and as it is. I fear to look within because I think I made another will that is not true, and made it real. Yet it has no effects. Within me is the Holiness of God. Within me is the memory of Him. acim W309

I will not fear to look within today. Within me is eternal innocence, because it is God’s Will that it be there forever and forever. I, His Child, whose will is limitless as is His Own, can will no change in this. For to deny my Father’s Will is to deny my own.

Prayer is the medium of miracles. It is a means of communication of the created with the Creator. Through prayer love is received, and through miracles love is expressed. acim T1.I

by reinforcing the lesson that there is one problem and one solution. The problem is a grievance; the solution is a miracle. And I invite the solution to come to me through my forgiveness of the grievance, and my welcome of the miracle that takes its place. acim W90

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Let me recognize the problem so it can be solved. Let me realize today that the problem is always some form of grievance that I would cherish. Let me also understand that the solution is always a miracle with which I let the grievance be replaced. Today I would remember the simplicity of salvation

That fills your mind so that He becomes your only Guest Whenever you ask the ego to enter you lessen His welcome He will remain but you have allied yourself against Him Whatever journey you choose to take He will go with you waiting You can safely trust His patience for He can't leave a part of God.

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

The Holy Spirit can't speak to an unwelcoming host because He will not be heard. The Eternal Guest remains but His Voice grows faint in alien company He needs your protection only because your care is a sign that you want Him Think like Him ever so slightly & the little spark becomes a blazing light

Truth has a power far beyond defense, for no illusions can remain where truth has been allowed to enter. And it comes to any mind that would lay down its arms, and cease to play with folly. It is found at any time; today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. acim W-136

My holiness is my salvation Specific situations, events or personalities you associate with unloving thoughts of any kind are suitable subjects for todays efforts Its imperative for your salvation that you see them differently & its your blessing on them that will save you & give you vision acim L39

find a way to help you see this concept of the self must be undone if any peace of mind is to be given you. Nor can it be unlearned except by lessons aimed to teach that you are something else. For otherwise you would be asked to make exchange of what you now believe for total loss of self..

120

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

A concept of the self is meaningless Yet is all learning that the world directs begun & ended with the single aim of teaching you this concept of yourself that you will choose to follow this world’s laws & never seek to go beyond its roads or realize the way you see yourself Now must the Holy Spirit

about the holiness of him whom God created sinless? Here we can but dream. But we can dream we have forgiven him in whom all sin remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him at last. acim W256

020

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

The way to God is through forgiveness here. There is no other way. If sin had not been cherished by the mind, what need would there have been to find the way to where you are? Who would still be uncertain? Who could be unsure of who he is? And who would yet remain asleep, in heavy clouds of doubt..

Miracles reflect God's eternal love. And as we gather miracles from Him, we will indeed be grateful. For as we remember Him, His Son will be restored to us in the reality of Love. acim W350

Without the values from the past, you would see them all the same and like yourself. Nor would you see any separation between yourself and them. In the holy instant, you see in each relationship what it will be when you perceive only the present. acim T15.V

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Everyone on earth has formed special relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the Holy Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the holy instant no one is special, for your personal needs intrude on no one to make your brothers seem different.

What has been given you? The knowledge that you are a mind, in Mind and purely mind, sinless forever, wholly unafraid, because you were created out of love. Nor have you left your Source, remaining as you were created. This was given you as knowledge which you cannot lose.

The gift of God to you is limitless. There is no circumstance it cannot answer, and no problem which is not resolved within its gracious light. acim T26.VII

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

To use the power God has given you as He would have it used is natural It isn't arrogant to be as He created you or make use of what He gave to answer all His Sons mistakes & set him free But it is arrogant to lay aside the power that He gave & choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills

It does not refer to any of the characteristics with which you have endowed your idols. It refers to you as you were created by God. It simply states the truth. acim W61

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Who is the light of the world except God’s Child? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about yourself. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of arrogance, or of self-deception. It does not describe the self-concept you have made.

Projecting out its guilt caused nothing & had no effects. Acim T28

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

The body to be victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not teach the whole. The miracle is useless if you learn but that the body can be healed for this is not the lesson it was sent to teach. The lesson is the mind was sick that thought the body could be sick;

110

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

The miracle returns the cause of fear to you who made it But it also shows that having no effects, it is not cause because the function of causation is to have effects & where effects are gone there is no cause Thus is the body healed by miracles because they show the mind made sickness & employed..

aspects of this self-perception. You have sought many such solutions, and none of them has worked. The opposites you see in you will never be compatible. But one exists. acim W96

010

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Salvation comes from my one Self. Although you are one Self, you experience yourself as two; as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and body. This sense of being split into opposites induces feelings of acute and constant conflict, and leads to frantic attempts to reconcile the contradictory

for the power of your will can't be lessened without the intervention of God against it & any limitation on your power is not the Will of God Therefore look only to the power that God gave to save you, remembering that it is yours because it is His & join with your brothers in His peace. acim T11.IV

030

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Could you try to make God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the Son deny the Father without believing that the Father has denied him? God’s laws hold only for your protection, and they never hold in vain. What you experience when you deny your Father is still for your protection..

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

And I will trust in Him. Then spend a quiet moment, opening your mind to His correction and His Love. And what you hear of Him you will believe, for what He gives will be received by you. acim W126

As often as you can, remind yourself you have a goal today; an aim which makes this day of special value to yourself & all your brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal for long, but tell yourself: All that I give is given to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true is with me now.

Miracles are seen in light Strength overlooks these things by seeing past appearances It keeps its steady gaze upon the light that lies beyond them It unites with light of which it's a part It sees itself It brings the light in which your Self appears In darkness you perceive a self that isn't there

Never accord the ego the power to interfere with the journey. It has none, because the journey is the way to what is true. Leave all illusions behind, and reach beyond all attempts of the ego to hold you back. I go before you because I am beyond the ego. Reach, therefore, for my hand because..

120

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

The ego’s way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The Holy Spirit has one direction for all minds, and the one He taught me is yours. Let us not lose sight of His direction through illusions, for only illusions of another direction can obscure the one for which God’s Voice speaks in all of us.

Think not the way to Heaven’s gate is difficult at all Nothing you undertake with certain purpose,high resolve & happy confidence Holding your brother’s hand & keeping step to Heaven’s song is difficult to do But it's hard indeed to wander off alone & miserable Down a road that leads to nothing acim

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Nothing is ever lost but time, which in the end is meaningless For it is but a little hindrance to eternity, quite meaningless to the real Teacher of the world. Yet since you do believe in it, why should you waste it going nowhere, when it can be used to reach a goal as high as learning can achieve?

The Holy Spirit is God’s Answer to the separation; the means by which the Atonement heals until the whole mind returns to creating. acim T-5.II

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

The Holy Spirit is the spirit of joy. He is the Call to return with which God blessed the minds of His separated Sons. This is the vocation of the mind. The mind had no calling until the separation, because before that it had only being, and would not have understood the Call to right thinking.

Atonement is received and offered. Having been received, it must be accepted. It is in the receiving, then, that healing lies. All else must follow from this single purpose. acim M22.6

020

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Would you see him as separate from you? It is your task to heal the sense of separation that has made him sick. It is your function to recognize for him that what he believes about himself is not the truth. It is your forgiveness that must show him this. Healing is very simple.

120

Rich James @rich167.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

The offer of Atonement is universal. It is equally applicable to all individuals in all circumstances. And in it is the power to heal all individuals of all forms of sickness. Not to believe this is to be unfair to God & thus unfaithful to Him. A sick person perceives himself as separate from God..

And making himself what God created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal,and the Will of God open to opposition and defeat. Sin is the grand illusion underlying all the ego’s grandiosity. For by it God Himself is changed, and rendered incomplete. acim T-19.II
