ACIM Daily Poem for Lesson #120, April 30th

Please Read ACIM Lesson #120

Review of:
(109) I rest in God.
(110) I am as God created me.

Whenever you rest in God
You will have the best of God --
You’ll live in peace and certainty,
With Love for all eternity.

When I let God work through me,
I'll be the best that I can be,
And be as I was meant to be:
Perfect, as God created me.

I rest in God 
And He speaks through me;
I rest in Him 
And He sets me free;
I rest in Him 
And can finally see:
I am as God created me!

This is not a quirk --
Let God do the work.
Let Him now restore,
And put an end to war.
We can end the killing
If we are willing.

Don't be surprised,
Just close your eyes.
As God enters in
His work will begin.

God's rest will reassure --
This world has no allure --
You’ll have the right attitude,
When you’re filled with gratitude.

Since you're God’s True Child
You can't be defiled --
Your efforts are worthwhile --
Your love will make God smile.

God’s already won --
You are His Son --
When you have the best of God,
Finally you can rest in God.

ACIM Daily Poem for Lesson # 119, April 29th

Please Read ACIM Lesson #119
Review of:

(107) Truth will correct all errors in my mind. (108) To give and to receive are one in truth.



Imagine a world where everything's right
And bathed in God's Heavenly Light;
Imagine your world with safety always,
And serenity filling your days.


Imagine you are truly blessed,
In God's Abode where you can rest;
Imagine your mind in stillness,
Aware, and with no illness.


Imagine a world with no unfairness,
With love and light in constant awareness;
Imagine you look on this world with gladness,
Knowing God's Truth removes your sadness.


Imagine a world where you will smile
On truth and beauty all the while;
Imagine a world with no frustration,
Where every soul knows salvation.


Imagine a world with one perception,
Created in divine conception --
Where every mind will know correction,
And always feel its soul connection.


Imagine your life with no illusion,
Purging your mind of mental confusion --
Imagine you live in God's Holy Time,
And Truth corrects all errors in your mind.

ACIM Daily Poem for Lesson #118, April 28th

Please Read ACIM Lesson #118


Review of:
(105) God's peace and joy are mine.
(106) Let me be still and listen to the truth.

This is finally the day
You will have to stay
On His Chosen Way.


When you go real fast
You’ll walk right past
Things that don't last.


No need to fear them,
But don't go near them
If you can’t hear them


Since you always knew
His Miracles true
Were His Gift for you.


God's Power and Wonder
Still the meaningless thunder,
Casting untruth asunder.


But now you must listen --
Let love's light glisten --
Till you feel the truth
Of eternal youth.


When you hear God speak to you,
Then you'll only hear what's true --
You'll say "Of course --
"God's my true Source."


God gives us miracles --
Not putting us in manacles --
He removes our pains
By removing our chains.


So many cannot see,
So we will have to be
Both undeceived,
And believed.


You have a lot to learn,
And so your heart will yearn.
But don't let the world burn --
Just watch the world turn.


There's no time for deceiving,
Nor any use for grieving --
Just continue on believing,
And always give what you're receiving.


It’s time to make your stand --
Your happiness is in His Hand --
Do everything you can --
God is God but we are only man.


It’s not a simple line --
By love we are defined --
It is God’s Holy Sign,
Making souls shine.


So it’s time to redefine
What happens by design --
We’re living on cloud nine,
Because we are divine.


Now we shall combine
Every heart and mind,
And knows it is the time:
“God's peace and joy are mine.”

ACIM Daily Poem for Lesson #117, April 27th

Please Read ACIM Lesson #117


Review of:
(103) God, being Love, is also happiness.
(104) I seek but what belongs to me in truth.


With God there's no distress
 But only happiness --
You’re under no duress --
 God only wants what's best --
Please stop feeling stressed --
You're so very blessed.

Within you love will start,
 And move to infinity --
You're never far apart
 From the Self you're meant to be --
So open up your heart
 And feel Love's affinity.

Though other people cry and wail,
Your Heavenly mission cannot fail --
Their treasure constitutes not love,
But worthless substitutes for love.

It's time we shift our inner selves --
Take self-made gifts off inner shelves --
So we can find a place for God,
And start to run the race for God.

Gifts you want are already yours --
To seek them, open inner doors --
You’ll find God's Holy Treasure,
And riches beyond measure.

God’s Truth you now can recognize --
You see it with your inner eyes,
Your mind will tell you truth, not lies,
So it should come as no surprise

That God’s Truth always longs for you,
It rights the world's wrongs for you,
And even sings these songs for you,
Because God’s Truth belongs to you.

Open your heart and see 
What's inside you --
Feel God's presence and 
Love beside you.

ACIM Daily Poem for Lesson #116, April 26th

Please Read ACIM Lesson #116


Review of:
(101) God's Will for me is perfect happiness.
(102) I share God's Will for happiness for me.


All our suffering,
Caused by nothing,
Appears as something
Our minds are creating.


We think we see it,
Then try to flee it,
But soon we'll be it
If our mortal will
Wants to suffer still --
But that's not God's Will.


What He wants for us
Is just happiness,
And eternal bliss.


So say it again:
There is no sin,
And God will win.


I now must see
God's Will for me:
It's to be free
Through eternity.


Salvation is our 
Destiny --
It's where we always 
Want to be,
From this point to 
Infinity.


His Salvation brings
You all things --
Your suffering brings
You no things.


Our lives are like a movie reel
When we believe in what's not real --
So don’t let illusions steal
The joys you want to feel.


These are joys you ought to feel --
These are joys you fought to feel --
So from your eyes illusions peal --
Now’s the time to see what's real.


When you see what's clear,
You will feel no fear,
And you will want God near.
So find joy in every minute --
Find joy and live within it.


God doesn’t abhor you --
In fact He adores you --
His Will's good FOR you.


God’s Will with others 
You must share,
And for God’s Will 
You must prepare --
If it’s not God’s Will 
You must beware,
So live God’s Will -- 
You now must dare.


Happiness is what God 
Wants for you --
It's the happiness that 
You want too.

So be happy,
As God wants you to do --
With Him your 
Joys are always true.

ACIM Daily Poem for Lesson #115, April 25th

Please Read ACIM Lesson #115

Review of:
(99) Salvation is my only function here.
(100) My part is essential to God's plan for salvation.


Now I will forgive you
For all errors I have made,
So now I can release you
From my sins I thought had stayed.


There's no one to blame,
So I feel no shame,
And I don’t want fame
'Cause this isn't a game --
Forgiveness and salvation are the same.


"Salvation is my only role"
Are words that make me whole,
But I feel no compunction
Since forgiveness is my function.


Still, appearances swarm,
But regardless of form,
God's Love keeps us warm.


When every voice seems loud and shrill,
When every step is up a hill,
When doubts our days so often fill,
Eternal truth remember still:
God's Love is not a frill --


It is His Only Will --
To give you happiness, until
Your mind's completely still
And with light your heart is filled.


So let’s take joy to others --
All our sisters and our brothers --
We’re here to let them know
They can let their sorrows go.


When our joy's complete,
Our hearts will skip a beat --
But still we must repeat:
God makes our joy complete.


My job's to see the Christ in me,
And also see the Christ in thee --
Let's open up all eyes to see
God's Plan will set us free.


For today and for eternity,
God's Love will give us surety
That happy we shall always be --
Filled with light eternally.
