" Lesson 125
"In quiet I receive God's Word today."
Let this day be a day of stillness and
of quiet listening. Your Father wills
you hear His Word today. He calls to you
from deep within your mind, where He abides.
Hear Him today. No peace is possible
until His Word is heard around the world;
until your mind, in quiet listening,
accepts the message [which] the world must hear
to usher in the quiet time of peace.
This world will change through you. No other means
can save it, for God's plan is simply this:
The Son of God is free to save himself,
given the Word of God to be his Guide,
forever in his mind and at his side
to lead him surely to his Father's house
by his own will, forever free as [His].
He is not led by force, but only love.
He is not judged, but only sanctified.
In stillness we will hear [His] Voice today,
without intrusion of our petty thoughts,
without our personal desires, and
without all judgment of His holy Word.
We will not judge ourselves today, for what
we are cannot be judged. We stand apart
from all the judgments which the world has laid
upon the Son of God. It knows him not.
Today we will not listen to the world,
but wait in silence for the Word of God.
Hear, holy Son of God, your Father speak.
His Voice would give to you His holy Word
to spread across the world the tidings of
salvation and the holy time of peace.
We gather at the throne of God today,
the quiet place within [your] mind where He
abides forever in the holiness
which He created and will never leave.
He has not waited until you return
your mind to Him to give His Word to you.
He has not hid Himself from you while you
have wandered off a <little> while from Him.
He does not cherish the illusions which
you hold about yourself. He knows His Son,
and wills that he remain as part of Him
regardless of his dreams; regardless of
his madness that his will is not his own.
Today He speaks to you. His Voice awaits
your silence, for His Word cannot be heard
[unless] your mind is quiet for a while,
and meaningless desires have been stilled.
Await His Word in quiet. There is peace
within you to be called upon today
to help make ready your most holy mind
to hear the Voice [of] its Creator speak.
Three times today, at times most suitable
for silence, give ten minutes set apart
from listening to the world, and choose instead
a gentle listening to the Word of God.
He speaks from nearer than your heart to you.
His Voice is closer than your hand. His Love
is everything you are and [what] He is;
the same as you, and you the same as He.|
It is your voice to which you listen as
He speaks to you. It is your Word He speaks.
It is the Word of freedom and of peace,
of unity of will and purpose, with
no separation nor division in
the single Mind of Father and of Son.
In quiet listen to your Self today,
and let Him tell you God has never left
His Son, and you have never left your Self.|
Only be quiet. You will need no rule
but this to [make] your practicing today
lift you above the thinking of the world,
and free your vision from the body's eyes.
Only be still and listen. You will hear
the Word in which the Will of God the Son
joins in His Father's Will, at one with It,
with no illusions interposed between
the wholly indivisible and true.
As every hour passes by today
be still a moment, and remind yourself
you have a special purpose for this day;
in quiet to receive the Word of God. "
