    It is the Heart of God, and also of His Son.

    There is a light that this world cannot give.
    Yet you can give it, as it was given you.
    And as you give it, it shines forth to call you from the world and follow it.
    For this light will attract you as nothing in this world can do.
    And you will lay aside the world and find another.
    This other world is bright with love which you have given it.
    And here will everything remind you of your Father and His holy Son.

    Nothing beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because nothing is beyond you.

    Fear has made everything you think you see.
    All separation, all distinctions, and the multitude of differences you believe make up the world. They are not there.
    Love’s enemy has made them up.
    Yet love can have no enemy, and so they have no cause, no being and no consequence.
    They can be valued, but remain unreal. They can be sought, but they can not be found.
    Today we will not seek for them, nor waste this day in seeking what can not be found.
    Workbook-p I. Lesson 130. 4:1-8.

    Why wait for Heaven? It is here today. Time is the great illusion it is past or in the future.
    Yet this cannot be, if it is where God wills His Son to be. How could the Will of God be in the past, or yet to happen?
    What He wills is now, without a past and wholly futureless.
    It is as far removed from time as is a tiny candle from a distant star, or what you chose from what you really want.

    Perhaps you think you did not make the world, but came unwillingly to what was made already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning.
    Yet in truth you found exactly what you looked for when you came.
    There is no world apart from what you wish, and herein lies your ultimate release.
    Change but your mind on what you want to see, and all the world must change accordingly.
    Ideas leave not their source.

    You do not ask too much of life, but far too little.
    When you let your mind be drawn to bodily concerns, to things you buy, to eminence as valued by the world, you ask for sorrow, not for happiness.
    Workbook-p I. Lesson 133. 2:1-2.

    Forgiveness stands between illusions and the truth; between the world you see and that which lies beyond; between the hell of guilt and Heaven’s gate.
    Across this bridge, as powerful as love which laid its blessing on it, are all dreams of evil and of hatred and attack brought silently to truth.
    They are not kept to swell and bluster, and to terrify the foolish dreamer who believes in them.
    He has been gently wakened from his dream by understanding what he thought he saw was never there.

    A healed mind does not plan. It carries out the plans that it receives through listening to wisdom that is not its own.
    It waits until it has been taught what should be done, and then proceeds to do it.
    It does not depend upon itself for anything except its adequacy to fulfill the plans assigned to it.
    It is secure in certainty that obstacles can not impede its progress to accomplishment of any goal that serves the greater plan established for the good of everyone.
    Workbook-p I. Lesson 135. 11:1-5.

    Miracles enable you to heal the sick and raise the dead because you made sickness and death yourself, and can therefore abolish both.
    You are a miracle, capable of creating in the likeness of your Creator.
    Everything else is your own nightmare, and does not exist.
    Only the creations of light are real.

    And as you let yourself be healed, you see all those around you, or who cross your mind, or whom you touch or those who seem to have no contact with you, healed along with you.
