Keys to this Lesson
Today’s lesson is rather soothing as you read it. Just listen to the first paragraph:
The light has come. You are healed and you can heal. The light has come. You are saved and you can save. You are at peace, and you bring peace with you wherever you go. Darkness and turmoil and death have disappeared. The light has come.
So today gives us something to celebrate, a happy ending.
Light has dawned and we see and experience anew.
The exercises today will be happy exercises.
We offer thanks for the passing of what has gone by and what is not beginning for us.
The shadows are leaving and we bathe in light.
Beautiful wording today and just stay with the practice as indicated today
Exercise
Longer Practice Periods
Focus on looking at the world that forgiveness shows us.
Tell yourself:
The light has come. I have forgiven the world.
Keep your mind open and CLEAN is what Jesus tells us.
Wait and be patient for the forgiven world to be shown you.
You might simply experience a sense of peace.
If you lose focus use slowly and with patience:
The light has come. I have forgiven the world.
Forgiveness entitles you to vision.
The Holy Spirit is with you to show you a different world than what you experience now.
Time to let go of how the ego’s world has failed you and to embrace God’s World, a world of love, peace and compassion.
Shorter Practice Periods
Joyful reminders of your release.
Every 15 minutes remind yourself that today is a special celebration.
Give thanks for the mercy and Love of God.
Rejoice in the power of forgiveness.
Be confident that today is a new beginning.
With this confidence look upon the world and say:
The light has come. I have forgiven the world.
If you are tempted by anyone or anything that pulls you into darkness, say:
The light has come. I have forgiven you.
Dedicate today to the serenity that your Father would have you be.
Keep this awareness today.
This is a celebration of joy as you forgive and see what is true.

Since you’re here… …we have a small favor to ask. More people are reading our posts, listening to our audios and watching our videos than ever before but far fewer are donating for it. As an all-volunteer ministry, you can see why we need to ask for your help. MiraclesOne provides ACIM resources freely however it takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe in encouraging others to practically apply the Course principles in their lives – because it might just make the one difference in your life. If everyone who reads, listens or watches and likes what we offer helps to pay for it we can continue to afford our expenses and keep our resources FREE to all ACIM Students. Monthly Donors receive free gifts in appreciation for their support.
