Lesson 272 – How can illusions satisfy God’s Son?

Commentary (full lesson beneath commentary)

Tears, used well, wash away illusions.  Tears wash away dark layers, cataract-like coverings dissolve, and Vision is revealed.  Tears are purifying baptisms. Today we pass illusions by, and tears become juicy with joy.  The truth belongs to us.  We are surrounded by God’s Love, forever still, forever gentle and forever safe.  We are as God created us … every only One of us.

LESSON 272

How can illusions satisfy God’s Son?

Father, the truth belongs to me.  My home is set in Heaven by Your Will and mine.  Can dreams content me?  Can illusions bring me happiness?  What but Your memory can satisfy Your Son?  I will accept no less than You have given me.  I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle and forever safe.  God’s Son must be as You created him. 

Today we pass illusions by.  And if we hear temptation call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be content with dreams, when Heaven can be chosen just as easily as hell, and love will happily replace all fear.
