There is no love but God’s. I bless you, brother, with the Love of God, which I would share with you. For I would learn the joyous lesson that there is no love but God’s and yours and mine and everyone’s.

Lesson 129.
Beyond this world there is a world I want.

Beyond this world there is a world I want. I choose to see that world instead of this, for here is nothing that I really want.

Lesson 130.
It is impossible to see two worlds.

It is impossible to see two worlds. Let me accept the strength God offers me and see no value in this world, that I may find my freedom and deliverance. I seek my freedom and deliverance, and this is not a part of what I want.

Lesson 131.
No one can fail who seeks to reach the truth.

No one can fail who seeks to reach the truth. I ask to see a different world, and think a different kind of thought from those I made. The world I seek I did not make alone, the thoughts I want to think are not my own.

Lesson 132.
I loose the world from all I thought it was.

I loose the world from all I thought it was. I who remain as God created me would loose the world from all I thought it was. For I am real because the world is not, and I would know my own reality.

Lesson 133.
I will not value what is valueless.

I will not value what is valueless, and only what has value do I seek, for only that do I desire to find. And then receive what waits for everyone who reaches, unen­cumbered, to the gate of Heaven, which swings open as he comes. Should you begin to let yourself collect some needless burdens, or believe you see some difficult decisions facing you, be quick to answer with this simple thought: I will not value what is valueless, for what is valuable belongs to me.

Lesson 134.
Let me perceive forgiveness as it is.

Let me perceive forgiveness as it is. Would I accuse myself of doing this? I will not lay this chain upon myself. No one is crucified alone, and yet no one can enter Heaven by himself.

Lesson 136.
Sickness is a defense against the truth.

Sickness is a defense against the truth. I will accept the truth of what I am, and let my mind be wholly healed today. I have forgotten what I really am, for I mistook my body for myself. But I am not a body. And my mind cannot attack. So I can not be sick.

Lesson 137.
When I am healed I am not healed alone.

When I am healed I am not healed alone. And I would share my healing with the world, that sickness may be banished from the mind of God’s one Son, Who is my only Self.

Lesson 157.
Into His Presence would I enter now.

Into His Presence would I enter now. Your body will be sanctified today, its only purpose being now to bring the vision of what you experience this day to light the world.

Lesson 158.
Today I learn to give as I receive.

Today I learn to give as I receive. When experience will come to end your doubting has been set. For we but see the journey from the point at which it ended, looking back on it, imagining we make it once again; reviewing mentally what has gone by.

Lesson 159.
I give the miracles I have received.

You understand that you are healed when you give healing. You accept forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when you forgive. You recognize your brother as yourself, and thus do you perceive that you are whole. There is no miracle you cannot give, for all are given you. Receive them now by opening the storehouse of your mind where they are laid, and giving them away.

Lesson 161.
Give me your blessing holy Son of God

Give me your blessing holu Son of God. One brother is all brothers. Every mind contains all minds, for every mind is one. Such is the truth.

Lesson 163.
There is no death. The Son of God is free.

There is no death, and we renounce it now in every form, for their salvation and our own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is given us to look past death, and see the life beyond.

Lesson 164.
ow are we one with Him Who is our Source.

What time but now can truth be recognized? The present is the only time there is. And so today, this instant, now, we come to look upon what is forever there; not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past time, and sees eternity as represented there. He hears the sounds the senseless, busy world engenders, yet He hears them faintly. For beyond them all He hears the song of Heaven, and the Voice for God more clear, more meaningful, more near.

Lesson 165.
et not my mind deny the Thought of God.

What makes this world seem real except your own denial of the truth that lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death obscure the perfect happiness and the eternal life your Father wills for you? And what could hide what cannot be concealed except illusion? What could keep from you what you already have except your choice to see it not, denying it is there?

Lesson 166.
I am entrusted with the gifts of God.

All things are given you. God’s trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He gives without exception, holding nothing back that can contribute to your happiness. And yet, unless your will is one with His, His gifts are not received. But what would make you think there is another will than His?

Lesson 167.
There is one life, and that I share with God.

There are not different kinds of life, for life is like the truth. It does not have degrees. It is the one condition in which all that God created share. Like all His Thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no death because what God created shares His life. There is no death because an opposite to God does not exist. There is no death because the Father and the Son are one.

Lesson 168.
Your grace is given me. I claim it now.

God speaks to us. Shall we not speak to Him? He is not distant. He makes no attempt to hide from us. We try to hide from Him, and suffer from deception. He remains entirely accessible. He loves His Son. There is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He will love His Son forever. When his mind remains asleep, He loves him still. And when his mind awakes, He loves him with a never-changing Love.

Lesson 169.
By grace I live. By grace I am released.

Grace is acceptance of the Love of God within a world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to everything the world contains, that those whose minds are lighted by the gift of grace can not believe the world of fear is real.

Lesson 170.

Lesson 181.
I trust my brothers, who are one with me.

Perception has a focus. It is this that gives consistency to what you see. Change but this focus, and what you behold will change accordingly.

Lesson 182.
I will be still an instant and go home.

There is a Child in you Who seeks His Father’s house, and knows that He is alien here. ⁴This childhood is eternal, with an innocence that will endure forever. ⁵Where this Child shall go is holy ground. ⁶It is His Holiness that lights up Heaven, and that brings to earth the pure reflection of the light above, wherein are earth and Heaven joined as one.

Lesson 183.
I call upon God’s Name and on my own.

Say His Name, and you invite the angels to surround the ground on which you stand, and sing to you as they spread out their wings to keep you safe, and shelter you from every worldly thought that would intrude upon your holiness.

Lesson 184.
The Name of God is my inheritance.

You live by symbols. You have made up names for everything you see. Each one becomes a separate entity, identified by its own name. By this you carve it out of unity. By this you designate its special attributes, and set it off from other things by emphasizing space surrounding it. This space you lay between all things to which you give a different name; all happenings in terms of place and time; all bodies which are greeted by a name.

Lesson 185.
I want the peace of God.

To say these words is nothing. But to mean these words is everything. If you could but mean them for just an instant, there would be no further sorrow possible for you in any form; in any place or time. Heaven would be completely given back to full awareness, memory of God entirely restored, the resurrection of all creation fully recognized.

Lesson 186.
Salvation of the world depends on me.

Forgiveness is an earthly form of love, which as it is in Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed here is given here as it is needed. In this form you can fulfill your function even here, although what love will mean to you when formlessness has been restored to you is greater still. Salvation of the world depends on you who can forgive. Such is your function here.

Lesson 187.
I bless the world because I bless myself.

Never believe that you can sacrifice. There is no place for sacrifice in what has any value. If the thought occurs, its very presence proves that error has arisen and correction must be made. Your blessing will correct it. Given to you, it now is yours to give as well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure before the face of one who has forgiven and has blessed himself.

Lesson 189.
I feel the Love of God within me now.

There is a light in you the world can not perceive. And with its eyes you will not see this light, for you are blinded by the world. Yet you have eyes to see it. It is there for you to look upon. It was not placed in you to be kept hidden from your sight.

Lesson 190.
I choose the joy of God instead of pain.

Lay down your arms, and come without defense into the quiet place where Heaven’s peace holds all things still at last.

Lesson 192.
I have a function God would have me fill.

Forgiveness represents your function here. It is not God’s creation, for it is the means by which untruth can be undone. ⁵And who would pardon Heaven? Yet on earth, you need the means to let illusions go.

Lesson 195.
Love is the way I walk in gratitude.

Our gratitude will pave the way to Him, and shorten our learning time by more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude goes hand in hand with love, and where one is the other must be found.

Lesson 196.
It can be but myself I crucify.

When this is firmly understood and kept in full awareness, you will not attempt to harm yourself, nor make your body slave to vengeance. You will not attack yourself, and you will realize that to attack another is but to attack yourself. You will be free of the insane belief that to attack a brother saves yourself. And you will understand his safety is your own, and in his healing you are healed.

Lesson 197.
It can be but my gratitude I earn.

The world must thank you when you offer it release from your illusions. Yet your thanks belong to you as well, for its release can only mirror yours. Your gratitude is all your gifts require, that they be a lasting offering of a thankful heart, released from hell forever

Lesson 198.
Only my condemnation injures me..

Injury is impossible. And yet illusion makes illusion. If you can condemn, you can be injured. For you have believed that you can injure, and the right you have established for yourself can be now used against you, till you lay it down as valueless, unwanted and unreal. Then does illusion cease to have effects, and those it seemed to have will be undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the gift you gave.

Lesson 199.
I am not a body. I am free.

Freedom must be impossible as long as you perceive a body as yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for freedom in a body looks for it where it can not be found. The mind can be made free when it no longer sees itself as in a body, firmly tied to it and sheltered by its presence. If this were the truth, the mind were vulnerable indeed!

Lesson 200.
There is no peace except the peace of God.

The peace of God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. Peace be to us today. For we have found a simple, happy way to leave the world of ambiguity, and to replace our shifting goals and solitary dreams with single purpose and companionship. For peace is union, if it be of God. We seek no further. We are close to home, and draw still nearer every time we say: There is no peace except the peace of God, And I am glad and thankful it is so.
