“The eternal light was shining as I left!”

Our small, fear-based stories are usually less than half true, usually based on hurts and unconscious agendas that persuade us to see and judge things in a very selective way. God’s grace and love teach us that we are all much larger than the good or bad stories we tell about ourselves or one another. It’s the great river where Life really happens. The river is flowing; we are already in it! We have been given the Spirit by a very proactive God. Just for today, help me to not be afraid to be in the river of Your grace and love.

We sometimes carry a treasured wound that reminds us of an injustice done to us. We harbor this wound for one purpose: to keep the pain alive and to focus on the feeling that we have been victimized. A Course in Miracles reminds us that “all that is left of your past is a blessing.” Today, help me to clear any old hurts from my mind; to release any pain held onto through unforgiveness to make way for a brighter future surrounded by Your love.

When Eternal Thought (or Eternal Light) expresses itself within the framework of space and time, it becomes matter. Our thoughts cannot know anything firsthand except material things. We can deduce that outside the box of space & time is Eternal Thought, or Light, which we can call God. Prayer for the Day I pray that I may be a true expression of Eternal Thought (or Eternal Light). I pray that God's thoughts and light may work through me.
