ACIM Lesson 306 Prayer

"The gift of Christ is all I seek today."

This lesson emphasizes the importance of seeking Christ's vision above all else, as it offers a glimpse of a world so similar to Heaven that it awakens ancient memories of our true nature. We are encouraged to go beyond fear and be restored to love, holiness, and peace, recognizing that we can forget the world we made and be reborn into a world of mercy and care. We are also reminded that we return to God with gratitude, empty hands, and open hearts, acknowledging that we never truly left Him and that the gift of Christ is ours through God's Love.

A Course in Miracles Lesson 306 The gift of Christ is all I seek today.

What else but Christ's vision would I use today,

When Christ's vision can offer me a day in which I see a world so like to heaven that an ancient memory returns to me?

Today,

I can forget the world I made.

Today,

I can go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace.

Today,

I am redeemed,

I am born anew into a world of mercy and of care.

Today,

I am reborn to a world of loving-kindness and the peace of God.

And so,

Our Father,

We return to you,

Remembering we never went away.

Father,

We return to you,

Remembering your holy gifts to us.

Father,

In gratitude and thankfulness,

We come to you with empty hands and open hearts and minds,

Asking for only what you give.

Father,

We cannot make an offering sufficient for your child,

But in your love,

Father,

The gift of Christ is ours.

The gift of Christ is all I seek today.

Nothing real can be threatened.

Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the peace of God.
