ACIM Lesson 113

Lesson 113: Review: “I am one Self, united with my Creator.”  Salvation comes from my one Self.”

This lesson says, “Serenity and perfect peace are mine, because I am one Self, completely whole, at one with all creation and with God.” 

The Course says that none other than perfect peace are mine.

That means there is not partial peace.

This means it is the best of the best of all tranquility.  

Nothing but the greatest for each and every one of us because God says we are worthy of being children of God and that this is the truth for all of us.

First, we just need to sit with the fact that God does’t just wish us a good day, God is providing us with perfect peace.  That means we are the most fortunate out there.  God wills this for us because it is our birthright from God to all of us.

We need to appreciate what a huge deal it is that perfect peace is meant to be ours and simply is ours when we are willing to accept it.  

We have to do our part of choosing this peace and giving it proper place in our minds and hearts.   We just need to have the perspective that the Course teaches us, to make God the only purpose that we give priority in our thinking.

The Course invites us to get deep into the knowing that we are worthy as God’s children.  

We may have so much resistance to believing this when the world and the ego so frequently tell us otherwise.  

That means that our job is to be simply open to the possibility that God declared is true.  That opening allows us to simply usher in a different reality than the ego’s.

The Course is entirely refreshing because it says that we get serenity in the same time that we get perfect peace when we allow God to be the author of that peace.  

When we allow the ego to bring the excitement of peace along with the ego’s energy it ends us with us undoubtedly turning to arrogance.

When the ego says- “Hey, great, I have peace,” the ego always couples this with that feeling of being better than everyone else. 

This feeling is the only way for the ego to feel powerful because it is the only way the ego knows how.  

The Course reminds us that when we allow God to steer the ship in our minds, then, we invite in serenity when we accept peace.

Serenity is purely the energy and the knowing that God is the Creator of whatever we see, and that God gives us the peace that now appears to be evident. 

When we allow perfect peace and serenity to go hand in hand, it is because we are accepting and acknowledging with a grateful heart that God has given us this perfect peace. 

The energy of this perfect peace is light and buoyant because it is the completely coupled emotional experience of God, when we just remember to let God be the Source of our perfect peace. 

And then, serenity is part of the equation because we accept the ego is not the one in charge of the amazing gift of peace.

God is our benefactor, and provides us with peace, and therefore, we can approach enjoying that peace with a grateful heart of serenity.
