A Course in Miracles,

Lesson 292 A happy outcome to all things is sure.

God's promises make no exceptions.

God guarantees that only joy can be the final outcome for everything.

It is up to us as to when joy is reached.

How long we let an alien will appear to be opposing the will of God.

While we think this alien will is real,

We will not find the end God has appointed as the outcome of all problems we perceive,

Of all trials we see,

And of every situation that we meet.

God's ending is certain,

Is done on earth and in heaven.

We will seek and we will find according to God's will,

And God's will guarantees that our will is done.

We thank you,

Father,

For your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the end.

Father,

Help us not to interfere,

And so delay the happy endings you have promised us for every problem that we can perceive,

For every trial that we think we still must meet.

A happy outcome to all things is sure.

I am as you created me.

Nothing real can be threatened,

Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the peace of God.
