Let me be still and listen to the truth.
* The “being still” I have come to understand as “stop listening to the outside voices” that society tells you that you have to listen to so that you can “get along.”
1. If you will lay aside the ego’s voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts that give you nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an open mind, that has not told you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely certain in Its messages.
* Yes, then you hear the INNER VOICE that represents what we truly are, which is part of All That Is WITHIN The Mind and Will of God, the One Original Universal Creator and FATHER.
2. Listen, and hear your Father speak to you through His appointed Voice, which silences the thunder of the meaningless, and shows the way to peace to those who cannot see.
²Be still today and listen to the truth.
³Be not deceived by voices of the dead, which tell you they have found the source of life and offer it to you for your belief.
* Did you get that? “The voices of the dead?”
⁴Attend them not, but listen to the truth.
3. Be not afraid today to circumvent the voices of the world.
²Walk lightly past their meaningless persuasion.
³Hear them not.
⁴Be still today and listen to the truth.
⁵Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness within His Hand, held out to you in welcome and in love.
⁶Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer.
⁷Hear one Voice today.
4. Today the promise of God’s Word is kept.
²Hear and be silent.
³He would speak to you.
⁴He comes with miracles a thousand times as happy and as wonderful as those you ever dreamed or wished for in your dreams.
* Truly. It will lift you right out of this world of ego while you are still in form and through SPIRIT, you will continue to release any residue of ego thinking. This might even go into ancestral lines as well, and not just your own thinking.
⁵His miracles are true.
⁶They will not fade when dreaming ends.
* This is a promise, and I am experiencing it, as will each of us. It holds the “strength” to carry us through things that we did not think we would be able to break through.
⁷They end the dream instead; and last forever, for they come from God to His dear Son, whose other name is you.
* In other words, YOU ARE (a part of) the Son of God.
⁸Prepare yourself for miracles today.
⁹Today allow your Father’s ancient pledge to you and all your brothers to be kept.
5. Hear Him today, and listen to the Word which lifts the veil that lies upon the earth, and wakes all those who sleep and cannot see.
²God calls to them through you.
³He needs your voice to speak to them, for who could reach God’s Son except his Father, calling through your Self?
⁴Hear Him today, and offer Him your voice to speak to all the multitude who wait to hear the Word that He will speak today.
6. Be ready for salvation.
²It is here, and will today be given unto you.
³And you will learn your function from the One Who chose it in your Father’s Name for you.
⁴Listen today, and you will hear a Voice which will resound throughout the world through you.
⁵The bringer of all miracles has need that you receive them first, and thus become the joyous giver of what you received.
* How can any student of a Course in Miracles not understand that the bringer of miracles is GOD?
* And yet, that is how it is interpreted.
7. Thus does salvation start and thus it ends; when everything is yours and everything is given away, it will remain with you forever.
* Everything appears to be gone in my life, yet, I hold everything within me. And I am grateful.
²And the lesson has been learned.
³Today we practice giving, not the way you understand it now, but as it is.
⁴Each hour’s exercises should begin with this request for your enlightenment:
⁵I will be still and listen to the truth.
⁶What does it mean to give and to receive?
8. Ask and expect an answer.
²Your request is one whose answer has been waiting long to be received by you.
³It will begin the ministry for which you came, and which will free the world from thinking giving is a way to lose.
* I am suspecting that everything that you do, think, or say, has the ability to hold within it All That Is (As The Son) and FATHER, also. AND that you Give as FATHER DOES, never losing anything.
⁴And so the world becomes ready to understand and to receive.
9. Be still and listen to the truth today.
²For each five minutes spent in listening, a thousand minds are opened to the truth and they will hear the holy Word you hear.
³And when the hour is past, you will again release a thousand more who pause to ask that truth be given them, along with you.
10. Today the holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so you can teach the world what giving means by listening and learning it of Him.
²Do not forget today to reinforce your choice to hear and to receive the Word by this reminder, given to yourself as often as is possible today:
³Let me be still and listen to the truth.
⁴I am the messenger of God today, my voice is His, to give what I receive.
* Hmm. I can say that I feel this happening in my life to a greater degree, day by day.
