A message filters up through my sleep, “Flip the grid.” When perception shifts, I start to see pinholes of light shining through the seemingly concrete images of trees and sky.
Pixels of God Light stream through and I comprehend what I do not yet Know. I become aware that everything I think I see are shutters obscuring Light. What appear to be holes in the grid is Reality … and what appears to be the grid is illusion!

Make me more aware of the Light than the container. Relieve me of the delusion of “me.” Replace “me” with You. God’s Will for the real Me/You/Us as Great Rays is perfect happiness and this makes sense without belief in this seeming fence I’ve built around my Self.

The aroma of lilies is creamy sweet and very pleasing. Even more pleasing is that there are no flowers in the room. They are a clue that Jesus is present. They are His gift which is ever-present, a gift I am learning how to accept moment-to-moment. If I forgive the world for all the errors I have made, then I am not-guilty. If I fulfill my part in saving the world, then all are innocent and I with them. Happiness blossoms up, knowing this is true. Pure and immediate, free and easy, innocent release. Full, deep inhale; luxurious, relieving exhale … how beautiful to be Breathed by God.

Streaks of light emanate in every direction, like a circular lightning burst. Sun of God, without limitation.

Commentary (full lesson beneath commentary)
Sitting quietly, early morning, eyes closed, with a feeling that the lesson is not coming when … just like that … the sun rises behind closed eyelids.
On the screen of the eyelids, from deep inside, there is a grand yet gentle saturated sunrise … deep dark fuchsia pink at bottom softening into peaches and yellows as it rises to the top of “my” mind. Whose mind?
Beauty and Peace replace amy-identity. Calm Evenness prevails. One Self, united with my Creator. Yes.
LESSON 113

On the hour: I am one Self, united with my Creator.
On the half hour: Salvation comes from my one Self.
Lying on my back with sun shining powerfully through the window, I am aware of how the Light is painfully bright and overpowering to my human eyes.
With eyes closed, it warms my eyelids and from the inside out I am illuminated. I see a saturated red flecked with gold … which changes to sunrise pink gold … then morphs into a peachy-orange … then mellows into a pale luminous yellow … light and joy and peace abide in me.
Light is me … and I am Light … and Light is the we-ness of me which is really Us.
LESSON 112
For morning and evening review:
(93) Light and joy and peace abide in me.
I am the home of light and joy and peace. I welcome them into the home I share with God, because I am a part of Him.
(94) I am as God created me.
I will remain forever as I was, created by the Changeless like Himself. And I am one iwth Him, and He with me.
A melting, a merging, a lifting, a floating … Miracles are seen in light … the spiritual eye arrives, and spreads, recedes, then fills my mind, swings back, and forth, purple in, gold out …
Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one. Light is strength. And strength is light. Strength is light. Gold in, gold out … a peaceful, happy feeling.
There is nothing to fear. Golden light spreading, merging, melting, floating, lifting me higher, sinking me deeper … golden God Light … there is nothing but God.
LESSON 111
For morning and evening review:
(91) Miracles are seen in light.
I cannot see in darkness. Let the light of holiness and truth light up my mind, and let me see the innocence within.
(92) Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one.
I see through strength, the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels, by giving me His strength to take its place.
On the hour: Miracles are seen in light.
On the half hour: Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one.
I reach out and touch the hem of his garment. A gladness fills my heart, a gladness rich with recognition and relief. Humility and magnificence converge in sweeping waves of ever-spreading Wordlessness … I am as God created me.
LESSON 110
I am as God created me.
We will repeat today’s idea from time to time. For this one thought would be enough to save you and the world, if you believed that it is true. Its truth would mean that you have made no changes in yourself that have reality, nor changed the universe so that what God created was replaced by fear and evil, misery and death. If you remain as God created you fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery and death do not exist.
Today’s idea is therefore all you need to let complete correction heal your mind, and give you perfect vision that will heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any time or place. It is enough to heal the past and make the future free. It is enough to let the present be accepted as it is. It is enough to let time be the means for all the world to learn escape from time, and every change that time appears to bring in passing by.
If you remain as God created you, appearances cannot replace the truth, health cannot turn to sickness, nor can death be substitute for life, or fear for love. All this has not occurred, if you remain as God created you. You need no thought but just this one, to let redemption come to light the world and free it from the past.
In this one thought is all the past undone; the present saved to quietly extend into a timeless future. If you are as God created you, then there has been no separation of your mind from His, no split between your mind and other minds, and only unity within your own.
The healing power of today’s idea is limitless. It is the birthplace of all miracles, the great restorer of the truth to the awareness of the world. Practice today’s idea with gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you free. This is the truth that God has promised you. This is the Word in which all sorrow ends.
For your five-minute practice periods, begin with this quotation from the text:
I am as God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son.
Then, with this statement firmly in your mind, try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of God Himself.
Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God and brother to the world; the Savior Who has been forever saved, with power to save whoever touches Him, however lightly, asking for the Word that tells him he is brother unto Him.
You are as God created you. Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of God instead of what he is be worshipped not today. Deep in your mind the holy Christ in you is waiting your acknowledgment as you. And you are lost and do not know yourself while He is unacknowledged and unknown.
Seek Him today, and find Him. He will be your Savior from all idols you have made. For when you find Him, you will understand how worthless are your idols, and how false the images which you believed were you. Today we make a great advance to truth by letting idols go, and opening our hands and hearts and minds to God today.
We will remember Him throughout the day with thankful hearts and loving thoughts for all who meet with us today. For it is thus that we remember Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, our holy Self, the Christ in each of us:
I am as God created me.
Let us declare this truth as often as we can. This is the Word of God that sets you free. This is the key that opens up the gate of Heaven, and that lets you enter in the peace of God and His eternity.
