We have embarked on a grand endeavor. We have come to see that we cannot believe the body\u2019s eyes nor believe our own concepts about the world and ourselves. We have seen that refusing to believe ego thoughts about ourselves, our brothers and our world and turning toward the truth is forgiveness. We have practiced forgiveness consistently and this practice has led us to the threshold of a new way of seeing.<\/p>\n
We now rest in the empty space left where illusions once stood. This lesson asks us to devote our practice to \u201clooking at the world that our forgiveness shows us.\u201d That is, it invites us to explore our innermost being without the clouds of the judgments, concepts, grievances and beliefs that have blocked our Vision until now.<\/p>\n
\u201cRealize that your forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving.\u201d<\/p>\n
What we are ready to be shown, is the truth of our own being. NTI 1 Thessalonians reminds us that Holy Spirit\/Inner Wisdom is \u201ccontinually with you, looking over you in peace and looking through you with peace as My only sight and the manifestation of My glory. This is why you shall know Me through peace. It is because I am that which is known as the peace of the Heart, which cannot be taken away.\u201d<\/p>\n
This is not some abstract promise of heaven; this is simply fact. When we quit relying on the thinking mind to interpret for us\u2014that is when we let go our beliefs, concepts and images that have kept us blind from our Truth we know peace and we know our Self. \u201cTo know peace in any moment is to know your Self within your heart. Take care to be grateful for every moment of peace that comes to greet you, and it is moments of peace that you shall continue to know.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a very simple statement of cause and effect, the lesson assures us our own Holy Spirit \u201cwill be with you as you watch and wait. He will show you what true vision sees. It is His Will, and you have joined with Him. Wait patiently for Him. He will be there. The light has come. You have forgiven the world.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
