ACIM Lesson 341 Prayer

"I can attack but my own sinlessness, And it is only that which keeps me safe."
This lesson asserts that our true safety lies in recognizing and embracing our sinlessness, which is our natural state as created by God. It teaches that when we try to attack or deny our own innocence, we are actually protected by it, as it remains untouched by our attempts to harm it. The lesson encourages us to acknowledge that our sinlessness is what protects us, as it is a reflection of God's love and holiness.

A Course in Miracles Lesson 341 I can attack but my own sinlessness,

And it is only sinlessness which keeps me safe.

Father,

Your child is holy.

I am the one on whom you smile in love and tenderness so dear and deep and still.

Father,

The universe smiles back on you and shares your holiness.

Father,

How pure,

How safe,

How holy then are we,

Abiding in your smile with all your love bestowed upon us.

We live one with you,

With fatherhood complete.

Father,

We live one with you in sinlessness so perfect that the Lord of sinlessness conceives us as his child,

A universe of thought completing us,

Father,

Let us not then attack our sinlessness,

For our sinlessness contains the word of God to us.

Nothing real can be threatened.

Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the peace of God.
