================================

On my decision all salvation rests.
1 Father, Your trust in me has been so great, I must be worthy. ²You created me, and know me as I am. ³And yet You placed Your Son’s salvation in my hands and let it rest on my decision. ⁴I must be beloved of You indeed.
☀️[CE [W-238:1]

The glory of my Father is my own.
1 Let not the truth about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. ²Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father gave us.
☀️[CE W-239.1:1-2]

I rule my mind, which I alone must rule.
1 I have a kingdom I must rule. ²At times, it does not seem I am its king at all. ³It seems to triumph over me, and tell me what to think and what to do and feel. ⁴And yet it has been given me to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it. ⁵My mind can only serve. ⁶Today I give its service to the Holy Spirit, to employ as He sees fit.
☀️[CE [W-236:1]

3 It is impossible the Son of God be merely driven by events outside him. ²It is impossible that the happenings that come to him were not his choice. ³His power of decision is the determiner of every situation in which he seems to find himself by chance or accident.

⁴No accident or chance is possible within the universe as God created it, outside of which is nothing. ⁵Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal. ⁶Be happy, and you gave the power of decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. ⁷This is the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. ⁸For by this gift is given you the power to release your savior, that he may give salvation unto you.
☀️CE T-21.II.3]

4 Whenever you are afraid, it is a sure sign that you have allowed your mind to miscreate; that is, you have not allowed me to guide it. ²It is pointless to believe that controlling the outcome of misthought can result in real healing.
☀️[CE T-2.IX.4:1-2]

⁶You are much too tolerant of mind wandering, thus tacitly condoning your mind’s miscreations. ⁷The particular result never matters, but this fundamental error does. ⁸The fundamental correction is always the same. ⁹Before you will to do anything, ask me if your will is in accord with mine. ¹⁰If you are sure that it is, there will be no fear.
☀️[CE T-2.IX.5:6-10]

10 If you attack another’s error, you will hurt yourself. ²You do not recognize him when you attack. ³Attack is always made on a stranger. ⁴You are making him a stranger by misperceiving him, so that you cannot know him. ⁵It is because you have made him into a stranger that you are afraid of him. ⁶What is he to you? ⁷He is your brother. ⁸What else do you need to know? ⁹But do know that. ¹⁰This is not a matter of perception but a fact. ¹¹Perceive him correctly, so that you can know him. ¹²The prayer for the miracle is:

¹³Jesus, help me see my brother [name] as he really is, and thus release both him and me.

¹⁴Anytime there is anything unloving that crosses your mind, you should immediately recognize that you do not want to hurt your brother.
☀️[CE T-3.V.10]

1 Fear is deception. ²It attests that you have seen yourself as you could never be, and therefore look upon a world which is impossible. ³Not one thing in this world is true. ⁴It does not matter what the form in which it may appear.
☀️[CE W-240.1:1-4]

³Their aim [of the physical senses] is to fulfill the purpose which the world was made to witness and make real. ⁴They see in its illusions but a solid base where truth exists, upheld apart from lies. ⁵Yet everything which they report is but illusion which is kept apart from truth.
☀️[CE W-WI.3.3:3-5]

³I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I hear as God my Father speaks to me. ⁴And I behold the world that Christ would have me see, aware it ends the bitter dream of death, aware it is my Father’s call to me.
☀️[CE W-237.1:3-4]
