Welcome to Active Meditation,
A Course in Miracles,
Lesson 173,
Review,
Lesson 155.
Steady our feet,
Father.
Let our doubts be quiet.
Let our holy minds be still and speak to us.
Lead our practicing.
We will listen to your word and make it ours.
We accept the word you offer us to unify our practicing as we review the thoughts that you have given us in these lessons.
Love is love,
And therefore so am I.
Review,
Lesson 155.
I will step back and let God lead the way.
There is a way of living in the world that is not here,
Although it seems to be.
We do not change appearance.
We smile more frequently.
Our forehead is serene and our eyes are quiet.
The people who walk the world as we do recognize their own.
Those who have not yet perceived the way will recognize us also and believe that we are like them as we were before.
Say to yourself,
Say in your mind,
I will step back and let God lead the way,
For I would walk along the road to God.
I will step back and let God lead the way,
For I would walk along the road to God.
The world is an illusion.
Those of us who choose to come to this world are seeking a place where we can actually be illusions and avoid our higher self and avoid who we really are.
Yet,
When we do find our higher self,
It is even here in this world.
We step back and we let our higher self lead the way.
What other choice is really ours to make?
To let illusions walk the head of truth is madness,
But to let illusion sink behind the truth and let the truth stand forth as what it is,
Is merely sanity.
This is the simple choice we make today.
We practice gladly with this thought today.
Say to yourself,
I will step back and let God lead the way,
For I would walk along the road to God.
Ponder on this.
I will step back and let God lead the way,
For I would walk along the road to God.
All illusions walking in the way you traveled will be gone from you as well.
Nothing will be left to keep the truth apart from God's completion,
To keep the truth holy as God himself.
Walk safely now,
Walk carefully,
Because this path is new to you and you may find that you are tempted still to walk ahead of truth and let illusions be your guide.
Step back in faith and let truth lead the way.
You know not where you go,
But the one who knows goes with you,
So let God lead you.
Now God asks you think of him a while each day.
He may speak to you and tell you of his love.
God is love and therefore so am I.
I will step back and let God lead the way.
Nothing real can be threatened,
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.
