LESSON 59

The following ideas are for review today:

1. 1(41) God goes with me wherever I go.

2How can I be alone when God always goes with me? 3How can I be doubtful and unsure of myself when perfect certainty abides in Him? 4How can I be disturbed by anything when He rests in me in absolute peace? 5How can I suffer when love and joy sur­round me through Him? 6Let me not cherish illusions about myself. 7I am perfect because God goes with me wherever I go.

2. 1(42) God is my strength. 2Vision is His gift.

3Let me not look to my own eyes to see today. 4Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by God. 5Christ’s vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. 6Let me call upon this gift today, so that this day may help me to understand eternity.

3. 1(43) God is my Source. 2I cannot see apart from Him.

3I can see what God wants me to see. 4I cannot see anything else. 5Beyond His Will lie only illusions. 6It is these I choose when I think I can see apart from Him. 7It is these I choose when I try to see through the body’s eyes. 8Yet the vision of Christ has been given me to replace them. 9It is through this vision that I choose to see.

4. 1(44) God is the light in which I see.

2I cannot see in darkness. 3God is the only light. 4Therefore, if I am to see, it must be through Him. 5I have tried to define what seeing is, and I have been wrong. 6Now it is given me to under­stand that God is the light in which I see. 7Let me welcome vision and the happy world it will show me.

5. 1(45) God is the Mind with which I think.

2I have no thoughts I do not share with God. 3I have no thoughts apart from Him, because I have no mind apart from His. 4As part of His Mind, my thoughts are His and His Thoughts are mine.
