A Course in Miracles Lesson 355 There is no end to all the peace and joy.

There is no end to all the miracles that I will give when I accept God's Word.

Why not today?

Why should I wait,

Father,

For the joy You promised me?

I know You will keep Your Word You gave to Your child in exile.

I am sure my treasure waits for me.

All I need to do is to reach out my hand to find it.

Even now,

My fingers touch my treasure.

It is very close.

I need not wait an instant more to be at peace forever.

Father,

It is You I choose and my real identity along with You.

Father,

Your child would be my true self.

Your child knows You as my Father.

And,

Father,

Your child knows You as Love.

There is no end to all the miracles that I will give when I accept God's Word.

There is no end to all the peace and joy.

Why should I wait,

Father,

For the joy You promised me?

Why not today?

Nothing real can be threatened.

Nothing unreal exists.

Herein lies the peace of God.
