lesson 14
â??God did not create ameaningless worldâ??
The idea for today is,of course,the reason why a meaningless world
is impossible. What God did not create does not exist. And
everything that does exist exists as He created it.The world you see
has nothing to do with reality.It is of your own making,and it does
not exist.
The exercises for today are to be practiced with eyes closed
throughout.The mind searching period should be short,a minute at
most.Do not have more than three practice periods with todayâ??s idea
unless you �nd them comfortable.If you do,it will be because you
really understand what they are for.
The idea for today is another step in learning to let go the
thoughts which you have written on the world,and see the Word of
God in their place.The early steps in this exchange,which can truly
be called salvation, can be quite dif�cult and even quite painful.
Some of them will lead you directly into fear.You will not be left
there.You will go far beyond it.Our direction is toward perfect safety
and perfect peace.
With eyes closed,think of all the horrors in the world that cross
your mind. Name each one as it occurs to you, and then deny its
reality.God did not create it,and so it is not real.Say,for example:
â??God did not create that war,and so it is not real.â??
â??God did not create that airplane crash,and so it is not real.â??
â??God did not create that disaster [specify],and so it is not real.â?? |
