How we see the world is our perception. And the shift in perception from fear to love defines the miracle we all seek. Seeing with love takes away judgment and opens our eyes to peace. This is true sight. Listen to today's lesson.

Quote of the Day
The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.

This lesson feels like a wonderful culmination of the past few days: We have sought Christ, we have gotten rid of conflict and we are living in the now without fear. It is time to bathe in this light and spend a day in fearlessness and love. Be gentle with yourself today, notice everything around you from the blue sky to the smile you project inside and out. Spend the entire day in love. Listen to today's lesson.

Quote of the Day
Traditionally, we think of forgiveness as something we are to do when we see guilt in someone. In the Course, however, we're taught that it's our function to remember that there is no guilt in anyone, because only love is real. It is our function to see through the illusion of guilt, to the innocence that lies beyond.

What would happen if we looked inside ourselves and instead of fear, wrong, confusion or any bad thing, we found peace, love and innocence? We would see the truth. God sees us in his image. It is his will that we see ourselves in his image. Let's look inside, there is nothing to fear. Listen to today's lesson.

Quote of the Day
Our job as a teacher of God, should we choose to accept it, is to constantly seek a greater capacity for love and forgiveness within ourselves. We do this through a 'selective remembering,' a conscious decision to remember only loving thoughts and let go of any fearful ones. This is the meaning of forgiveness.

This lesson reminds you that a gift has already been prepared for your life. How many of us anticipate a holiday or birthday? We know that something good will be coming our way, and we are excited for all sorts of gifts, from hugs to flowers. Even remembering this extra acknowledgment of our lives and what we mean to others helps us through dark moments.

This teaching today reminds us to seek the gift that is ready for us every moment of the day. The gift of Christ is a gift of inner peace, forgiveness, strength and redemption, and it is always available. Listen to today's lesson.

Quote of the Day
A miracle is not a rearrangement of the figures in our dream. A miracle is our awakening from it.

Quote of the Day
Doing anything for a purpose other than love means reliving the split from God, perpetuating and maintaining that split.

Purity of heart will not make us poor. The exaltation of poverty as a spiritual virtue is of the ego, not the spirit. A person acting from a motivation of contribution and service rises to such a level of moral authority, that worldly success is a natural result.

When we are motivated by the desire to sell, we are only looking out for ourselves. When we are motivated by the desire to serve, we are looking out for others. Miracles shift us from a sales to a service mentality.

"It's not our job to figure out how to accomplish God's purposes on earth. That's not help; it's interference. It is merely our job to so deeply align our hearts and minds with His spirit within us, that our lives then become involuntary instruments of His will."

"One of the reasons we're always trying to control the results in life is because we think the universe, when left to its own devices, is chaotic. But God is the ultimate order. He is the principle of constantly expanding love in action, in all dimensions, for all life."
