lesson 63
“The light of the world brings peace to every mind
through my forgiveness.”
How holy are you who have the power to bring peace to every
mind! How blessed are you who can learn to recognize the means
for letting this be done through you! What purpose could you have
that would bring you greater happiness?
You are indeed the light of the world with such a function.The
Son of God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours to give him,
for it belongs to you.Accept no trivial purpose or meaningless desire
in its place, or you will forget your function and leave the Son of
God in hell.This is no idle request that is being asked of you.You are
asked to accept salvation that it may be yours to give.
Recognizing the importance of this function, we will be happy to
remember it very often today.We will begin the day by acknowledging
it, and close the day with the thought of it in our awareness. And
throughout the day, we will repeat this as often as we can:
“The light of the world brings peace to every mind through
myforgiveness.
I am the means God has appointed for the salvation of the world.”
You will probably find it easier to let the related thoughts come
to you in the minute or two which you should devote to considering
this if you can close your eyes. Do not, however, wait for such an
opportunity. No chance should be lost for reinforcing today’s idea.
Remember that God’s Son looks to you for his salvation. And
who but your Self must be His Son?
