A Course in Miracles, Lesson 270. I will not use the body's eyes today. Father, Christ's vision is your gift to me. Christ's vision has the power to translate all that the body's eyes behold into the sight of a forgiven world. How glorious and gracious is this world! How much more will I perceive in it than sight can give? Father, The world forgiven signifies your children acknowledge you. You who let the dreams of your children be brought to truth. Your children wait expectantly the one remaining instant more of time. Time which ends forever as your memory returns to each of your children. Now, Our Father's will is one with yours. Our Father's function now is but your own. Every thought except our Father's thoughts are gone. The quiet of today will bless our hearts, And through our hearts peace will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes today, And through his sight we offer healing to the world through him. Through him, The holy child whom God created whole. The holy child whom God created one will not use the body's eyes today. Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God.
