Going Within to Our Inner Refuge of Peace

When you are still an instant, when the world recedes from you, when valueless ideas cease to have value in your restless mind, then will you hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not resist Him longer. In that instant He will take you to His home, and you will stay with Him in perfect stillness, silent and at peace, beyond all words, untouched by fear and doubt, sublimely certain that you are at home.

He has come as does a little child, who must beseech his father for protection and for love. He rules the universe, and yet He asks unceasingly that you return with Him, and take illusions as your gods no more.

You have not lost your innocence. It is for this you yearn. This is your heart’s desire. …Be still an instant and go home with Him, and be at peace a while. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 182, W-pI.182.8:1-3;11:4-5;12:1-3,9. See also ACIM Lesson 182 Insights.)

We have a place of refuge in our mind. It is a place of safety, peace and Love. It is the part of us that remembers our true Home. To go to this place of refuge we must step back from the frenzy of the world we experience through the body. This refuge cannot be found in the world. It is found instead by setting aside the world’s values and giving our attention to the stillness, peace and happiness of Love’s oneness.

We let the thoughts of the world pass by without engaging them… As we let them fade into the distance, the quiet strength and certainty of the Love within grows stronger in our awareness… Our mind becomes still… and we rest in deep peace… revitalized by Love’s strength… We remember our innocence… and see it in all our brothers… We return to our doing in the world with a new vision that lets our doing extend Love in gentleness and kindness.
