Lesson 244: ”I am in danger nowhere in the world.”

Reframe:  I am safe and supported in every moment.

Suggested Practice: 

From now on: 
One in the morning and one in the evening for however many minutes feels sufficient. Then every hour remember/recite the idea for the day. 

Prayer For today: 
(feel free to swap out the wording to whatever resonates with you best)

“Your Son is safe wherever he may be, for You are there with him. ²He need but call upon Your Name, and he will recollect his safety and Your Love, for they are one. ³How can he fear or doubt or fail to know he cannot suffer, be endangered, or experience unhappiness, when he belongs to You, beloved and loving, in the safety of Your Fatherly embrace?” (ACIM, W-244.1:1-3)

OR… “I am safe.”

For Lessons 241-250: What is the World? is the theme. Read the whole article here.
”The world is false perception. ²It is born of error, and it has not left its source. … The world was made as an attack on God. ²It symbolizes fear. ³And what is fear except love’s absence? … ⁵Yet everything that they report is but illusion which is kept apart from truth. … As sight was made to lead away from truth, it can be redirected. ²Sounds become the call for God, and all perception can be given a new purpose by the One Whom God appointed Savior to the world [that’s us]. ³Follow His light…Hear His Voice…let Him give you peace and certainty…⁴We must save the world.

From the PART II Introduction: Read the whole introduction here.

“Words will mean little now. ²We use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. ³For now we seek direct experience of truth alone. ⁴The lessons that remain are merely introductions to the times in which we leave the world of pain, and go to enter peace. ⁵Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set, and find the end toward which our practicing was always geared.” (ACIM, W-pII.in.1:1-5)

Message

Depending on your viewpoint—ego mind or Divine mind—today’s Lesson can seem ludicrous or comforting. To quote the “What is the World?” essay presented between Lessons 240 and 241: “The world is false perception. It is born of error…” In the Course’s view, the world we occupy in these human bodies is “…but an illusion which is kept apart from truth.”

Our true Self is also not of this world. We’re temporarily housed in human form where ego thoughts lurk, trying to convince us this earthly plane is real and that we have every reason to fear for our body’s safety. And yes, while we’re here, it serves us well to take care of the body to better facilitate our function: forgiveness and salvation. But the reality is, our bodies will eventually end, while we live on.

To clarify, the safety this Lesson refers to is that of our true Self—our Higher Self, our Consciousness, whatever name you prefer. Regardless of what happens while we’re in this world, we are safe. We’ve been told repeatedly we are whole and complete, love personified. Our gifts of peace, love, and joy are inherent and infinite. Nothing of this world can change or destroy that. Our bodies are temporary; we are infinite.

Knowing that, embracing this idea today, gave me comfort and helped me feel more secure. It’s like playing a game where I know I can never lose, so I might as well play it to the fullest.

But knowing this intellectually and living it day-to-day are two different things. The only thing that stops me is when I let Juni—my ego mind’s name—rule my day. When I choose to believe the thoughts she sends, like “no one is interested in buying your art” or “what’s the point of writing posts for this blog—hardly anyone reads them,” I feel less than my fullest self and hide away.

That’s when I call His Name. As the Lesson states: “[I] need but call Your Name, and [I] will recollect [my] safety and Your Love, for [we] are one. How can [I] fear or doubt or fail to know [I] cannot suffer, be endangered, or experience unhappiness, when [I] belong to You, beloved and loving in the safety of Your Fatherly embrace?“

That’s the practice. That’s all it is, really—remembering who to call.

“I have never felt more loved, more secure, or more sure that people everywhere are infinitely beautiful, kind, and filled with love.”
