lesson 281


“I can be hurt by nothing but my thoughts.”

“Father,Your Son is perfect.When he thinks that he is hurt in any way, it is
because he has forgotten who he is. And that he is as You created him.Your
Thoughts can only bring me happiness. If ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have
forgotten what You think, and put my little, meaningless ideas in place of
where Your Thoughts belong, and where They are. I can be hurt by nothing
but my thoughts.The Thoughts I think with You can only bless.The Thoughts
I think with You alone are true.”


I will not hurt myself today. For I am far beyond all pain. My
Father placed me safe in Heaven, watching over me.And I would not
attack the Son He loves, for what He loves is mine to love as well.


lesson 282


“I will not be afraid of love today.”

If I could realize but this today, salvation would be reached for all the
world. This the decision not to be insane, and to accept myself as
God Himself, my Father and my Source, created me. This the
determination not to be asleep in dreams of death, while truth
remains forever living in the joy of life. And this the choice to
recognize the Self Whom God created as the Son He loves, and
Who remains my one Reality.


“Father,Your Name is Love, and so is mine. Such is the truth.And can
the truth be changed by merely giving it another name? The name of fear is
simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of truth today.”
