ACIM Lesson #264
“I am surrounded by the Love of God.”
[ACIM prayer for the day] “Father, You stand before me and behind, beside me, in the place I see myself, and everywhere I go. You are in all the things I look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches for my own. In You time disappears, and place becomes a meaningless belief. For what surrounds Your Son and keeps him safe is Love itself. There is no source but this, and nothing is that does not share its holiness; that stands beyond Your one creation, or without the Love which holds all things within itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your Own Name today, to be at peace within Your everlasting Love.”
[ACIM commentary]
“My brothers, join with me in this today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not join in what will save the world, along with us?”
[Marsha's thoughts] 
It is a constant meditation to look through the brainwashing which comes at us from everywhere. The media permeates our every waking moment -- if we let it. Having spent two hours in the laundromat with a radio playing in the background, it was graphically brought into focus how insane the content was! The songs were totally inane and yet mesmerizing, the commercials were mostly for drugs and disease, the news -- yikes!! When I stop and think about it, almost everything out there carries these messages to us. It even seems collective consciousness gives us no choice. But this is the illusion, this is not the consciousness of the Love that is God, the Love that permeates everything, leaving no room for anything else to intrude. There is no other true power. "Clad in the panoply of Love, human hatred cannot reach me." (MBE) "I am surrounded by the Love of God." (ACIM) Today I will know that this is True.
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“Think of this, dear reader, for it will lift the sackcloth from your eyes, and you will behold the soft-winged dove descending upon you. The very circumstance, which your suffering sense deems wrathful and afflictive, Love can make an angel entertained unawares. Then thought gently whispers: Come hither! Arise from your false consciousness into the true sense of Love, and behold the Lamb's wife,--Love wedded to its own spiritual idea. Then cometh the marriage feast, for this revelation will destroy forever the physical plagues imposed by material sense.”
