Welcome to Active Meditation.
A Course in Miracles,
Lesson 49 God's Voice speaks to me all through the day.
God's Voice speaks to me all through the day.
It is quite possible to listen to God's Voice all through the day,
Without interrupting your regular activities in any way.
The part of your mind in which truth abides is in constant communication with God,
Whether you are aware of it or not.
It is the other part of your mind that functions in the world and obeys the world's laws.
It is this part that is constantly distracted,
Disorganized,
And highly uncertain.
The part that is listening to the Voice for God is calm,
Always at rest,
And wholly certain.
It is really the only part there is.
The other part is a wild illusion,
Frantic and distraught,
But without reality of any kind.
Try today not to listen to it.
Try to identify with the part of your mind where stillness and peace reign forever.
Try to hear God's Voice call to you lovingly,
Reminding you that your Creator has not forgotten the child.
We will need at least four five-minute practice periods today and more if possible.
We will try actually to hear God's Voice,
Reminding you of God and of yourself.
We will approach this happiest and holiest of thoughts with confidence,
Knowing that in doing so,
We are joining our will with the will of God.
God wants you to hear this Voice.
God gave it to you to be heard.
Let's practice.
Take some deep breaths,
A few moments to relax.
Listen in deep silence.
Be very still and open your mind.
Go past all the rockless shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your real thoughts and obscure your eternal link with God.
Move down.
Think deep.
Think deep into the peace that waits for you beyond the frantic ride as thoughts and sights and sounds of this insane world.
You do not live here.
We are trying to reach your real home.
We are trying to reach the place where you are truly welcome.
We are trying to reach God.
Be still.
Open your mind.
Think deep into peace.
This is our real home.
This is where we are truly welcome.
This is where we can reach God.
We are trying to reach the place where we are truly welcome.
We are trying to reach the place where we are truly welcome.
Do not forget to repeat today's idea very frequently.
Do so with your eyes open when necessary,
But closed when possible.
And be sure to sit quietly and repeat the idea for today whenever you can,
Closing your eyes on the world.
And realizing that you are inviting God's voice to speak to you.
God's voice speaks to me all through the day.
God's voice speaks to me all through the day.
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.
