A COURSE IN MIRACLES
MANUAL FOR TEACHERS
19. "WHAT IS JUSTICE?"
4 Salvation is God's justice. It restores to your awareness the wholeness of the fragments you perceive as broken off and separate. And it is this that overcomes the fear of death. For separate fragments must decay and die, but wholeness is immortal. It remains forever and forever like its Creator, being one with Him. God's Judgment is His justice.

Voice and Music by CIMS SonShip Radio
I am God's Son, complete and healed and whole,
shining in the reflection of His Love.
In me is His creation sanctified
and guaranteed eternal life. In me
is love perfected, fear impossible,
and joy established without opposite.
I am the holy home of God Himself.
I am the Heaven where His Love abides.
I am His holy Sinlessness Itself,
for in my purity abides His own.
Our use for words is almost over now.
Yet in the final days of this one year
we gave to God together, you and I,
we found a single purpose that we shared.
And thus you joined with me. So what I am
are you as well. The truth of what we are
is not for words to speak of nor describe.
Yet we can realize our function here,
and words can speak of this, and teach it, too,
if we exemplify the words in us.
We are the bringers of salvation. We
accept our part as Saviours of the world,
which through our joint forgiveness is redeemed.
And this, our gift, is therefore given us.
We look on everyone as brother, and
perceive all things as kindly and as good.
We do not seek a function that is past
the gates of Heaven. Knowledge will return
when we have done our part. We are concerned
only with giving welcome to the truth.
Ours are the eyes through which Christ's vision sees
a world redeemed from every thought of sin.
Ours are the ears which hear the Voice of God
proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds
which join together as we bless the world.
And from the oneness that we have attained
we call to all our brothers, asking them
to share our peace and consummate our joy.
We are the holy messengers of God,
who speak for Him. And carrying His Word
to everyone whom He has sent to us,
we learn that It is written on our hearts.
And thus our minds are changed about the aim
for which we came and which we seek to serve.
We bring glad tidings to the Son of God,
who thought he suffered. Now is he redeemed.
And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand
open before him, he will enter in
and disappear into the Heart of God.

DAILY LESSON
L e s s o n 358
No call to God can be unheard nor left
Unanswered. And of this I can be sure--
His answer is the one I really want.
<AUDIO><VIDEO>
Voice and Music by CIMS SonShip Radio
You Who remember what I really am
alone remembers what I really want.
You speak for God, and so You speak for me.
And what You give me comes from God Himself.
Your Voice, my Father, then is mine as well,
and all I want is what You offer me
in just the form You chose that it be mine.
Let me remember all I do not know,
and let my voice be still, remembering.
But let me not forget Your Love and care,
but keep Your promise to Your Son in my
awareness always. Let me not forget
myself is nothing, but my Self is all.

ACIM Edmonton - Sarah's Reflections
Lesson 358
No call to God can be unheard nor left
Unanswered. And of this I can be sure--
His answer is the one I really want.
Sarah's Commentary:
The Course talks of healing the mind. It talks of healing our misguided thoughts so we can know our innocence. But here, as in Lesson 345, we are told miracles can show up in form. In Lesson 345, he says, "The miracles I give are given back in just the form I need to help me with the problems I perceive."
(W.345.1.4) In this lesson we are told,
"Your Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I want is what You offer me, in just the form You choose that it be mine."
(W.358.1.4)
The important part of this line for me is that we don't know what we want or what will bring us peace and happiness. Therefore, we allow Him to choose. When we make our own choices based on the ego's directions, we will be hurt. We truly can't know our own best interests if we don't know who we are.
In Chapter 30 IV, Jesus is basically saying, in my interpretation, all of the stuff we think we want in the illusion, including events, circumstances, people, relationships, jobs, toys and other material things, may serve us for a while, but inevitably disappoint us because, in fact, the ego set it up this way. In this way, we keep looking for what would satisfy us in the illusion, yet the ego keeps telling us nothing ever will. This section of the text acknowledges these "toys" may
"dance a little while, according to the rules we set for them,"
(T.30.IV.4.4)(ACIM OE T.30.V.52) but at some point we get disillusioned with them. We attack them for not meeting our expectations, and then we say life sucks because it hasn't turned out our way.
That is why we are increasingly motivated to allow the Holy Spirit to choose for us. Only He knows what we truly want, even if the ego seems to be telling us something different. We may think we really want what God wants for us, but so often we end up taking our own initiative instead. Giving up control to Him is what we are learning to do. We are reminded in 'The Rules for Decision,' "I will make no decisions by myself today." If this is to be the case, I need to take the time in the morning, before I get into the events of the day, and set this intention for myself. Humility helps me to acknowledge that the 'little self' I am hasn't got a clue. It is important to look at what humility really is from a Course perspective. To do that, we should perhaps look at what it is not. It is not about diminishing ourselves, but it is to
"accept of Him that which we are, and humbly recognize the Son of God."
(W.152.10.2) In other words, we are accepting our greatness, not according to our self-concept, but according to what is given in our creation. It is our grandeur and not our grandiosity. It is our holiness. Our beloved teacher is gently showing us the way to remember who we really are. It is the Christ Self that is our reality.
Our self-image may seem humble, but it is actually arrogance masking as humility. Anything of our making is a false image, no matter what it may look like. In the Manual for Teachers, Jesus talks of our
"guilty embarrassment coming from false humility."
(M.7.5.6) This comes from the self-image as a result of how we have been socialized by the norms of the world rather than recognizing the truth of who we are beyond the image. When we recognize that
"His answer is the one I really want,"
(W.358) as this lesson says, we will be willing to release our own answers and depend on His guidance for everything. This is what humility is.
In Chapter 9, Sections I and II, he discusses the reason prayer is not answered in the way we might expect. In one instance, we may not get an answer because we are asking for nothing, and in another instance it is because we are asking for something that might hurt us or bring on more fear. Since the course is about escape from fear, the Holy Spirit will not give us anything that will increase our fear or threaten our thought system. Further, there are many answers he says we have received, but not yet heard. So while all prayers are answered, they are not all accepted due to our own resistance.
That is why the Holy Spirit must look out for our interests.
"You speak for God, and so You speak for me. And what You give me comes from God Himself."
(W.358.1.2-3) Thus, God will only give us what is good for us since we really have no idea of our own needs and wants. How can we when we don't know what we are? When we listen to the ego, we reach out for pleasure, but always receive pain.
The question is: What are we looking for when we ask for the idols? Don't we all want happiness, peace, joy and we do think the things we are asking for will bring us these attributes. Yet they won't. Until we get that, we will keep seeking and never finding. It is interesting to watch our minds at this time of year. The impact on us of the commercial aspects of Christmas, as well as our desires for certain things and our expectations on how our family gatherings should look, can create tension and bring about disappointments. What a wonderful opportunity to watch what is in our minds, and put these thoughts on the inner alter for forgiveness. We ask for help and guidance, trusting our call will be heard and answered when we ask for healing. Why can we be so sure about this? We can be sure because the answer is already in our own minds. We can choose it anytime when we turn to the Voice that speaks for God and not the voice of the ego. The ego has written the script for our special relationships, and now we make the choice to forgive these relationships. That is our special function. It is to remember Jesus' teaching in every moment we can.
I was recently reading Michael Singer's book, "The Surrender Experiment," where he simply said 'yes' to everything. In the process, he was able to see how much the ego resisted what he was being asked, but he looked past the resistance and simply lived in acceptance. This book really caught my attention and is recommended reading. I think it fits in very well with this lesson.
Love and blessings, Sarah

1 Justice is the divine correction for injustice. Injustice is the basis for all the judgments of the world. Justice corrects the interpretations to which injustice gives rise and cancels them out. Neither justice nor injustice exists in Heaven, for error is impossible and correction meaningless. In this world, however, forgiveness depends on justice since all attack can only be unjust. Justice is the Holy Spirit's verdict upon the world. Except in His judgment, justice is impossible, for no one in the world is capable of making only just interpretations and laying all injustices aside. If God's Son were fairly judged, there would be no need for salvation. The thought of separation would have been forever inconceivable.
2 Justice, like its opposite, is an interpretation. It is, however, the one interpretation that leads to truth. This becomes possible because, while it is not true in itself, justice includes nothing that opposes truth. There is no inherent conflict between justice and truth; one is but the first small step in the direction of the other. The path becomes quite different as one goes along. Nor could all the magnificence, the grandeur of the scene and the enormous opening vistas that rise to meet one as he travels on, be foretold from the outset. Yet even these, whose splendor reaches indescribable heights as one proceeds, falls short indeed of all that awaits one when the pathway ceases and time ends with it. But somewhere one must start. Justice is the beginning.
3 All concepts of your brothers and yourself, all fears of future states, and all concern about the past stem from injustice. Here is the lens which, held before the body's eyes, distorts perception and brings witness of the distorted world back to the mind that made the lens and holds it very dear. Selectively and arbitrarily is every concept of the world built up in just this way. "Sins" are perceived and justified by this careful selectivity in which all thought of wholeness must be lost. Forgiveness has no place in such a scheme, for not one "sin" but seems forever true.
4 Salvation is God's justice. It restores to your awareness the wholeness of the fragments you perceive as broken off and separate. And it is this that overcomes the fear of death. For separate fragments must decay and die, but wholeness is immortal. It remains forever and forever like its Creator, being one with Him. God's Judgment is His justice. Onto this-a judgment wholly lacking in condemnation, an evaluation based entirely on love-you have projected your injustice, attributing to God the lens of warped perception through which you look. Now it belongs to Him and not to you. You are afraid of Him and do not see you hate and fear your Self as enemy.
5 Pray for God's justice, and do not confuse His mercy with your own insanity. Perception can make whatever picture the mind desires to see. Remember this. In this lies either Heaven or hell, as you elect. God's justice points to Heaven just because it is entirely impartial. It accepts all evidence that is brought before it, omitting nothing and assessing nothing as separate and apart from all the rest. From this one standpoint does it judge, and this alone. Here all attack and condemnation becomes meaningless and indefensible. Perception rests, the mind is still, and light returns again. Vision is now restored. What had been lost has now been found. The peace of God descends on all the world and we can see. And we can see!
20. What is the Peace of God?
1 It has been said that there is a kind of peace that is not of this world. How is it recognized? How is it found? And being found, how can it be retained? Let us consider each of these questions separately, for each reflects a different step along the way.
2 First, how can the peace of God be recognized? God's peace is recognized at first by just one thing---in every way it is totally unlike all previous experiences. It calls to mind nothing that went before. It brings with it no past associations. It is a new thing entirely. There is a contrast, yes, between this thing and all the past. But strangely, it is not a contrast of true differences. The past just slips away and in its place is everlasting quiet. Only that. The contrast first perceived has merely gone. Quiet has reached to cover everything.
3 How is this quiet found? No one can fail to find it who but seeks out its conditions. God's peace can never come where anger is, for anger must deny that peace exists. Who sees anger as justified in any way or any circumstance proclaims that peace is meaningless and must believe that it cannot exist. In this condition peace cannot be found. Therefore forgiveness is the necessary condition for finding the peace of God. More than this, given forgiveness there must be peace. For what except attack will lead to war? And what but peace is opposite to war? Here the initial contrast stands out clear and apparent. Yet when peace is found, the war is meaningless. And it is conflict now that is perceived as non-existent and unreal.
4 How is the peace of God retained once it is found? Returning anger in whatever form will drop the heavy curtain once again, and the belief that peace cannot exist will certainly return. War is again accepted as the one reality. Now must you once again lay down your sword, although you may not recognize that you have picked it up again. But you will learn, as you remember even faintly now what happiness was yours without it, that you must have taken it again as your defense. Stop for a moment now, and think of this: is conflict what you want, or is God's peace the better choice? Which gives you more? A tranquil mind is not a little gift. Would you not rather live than choose to die?
5 Living is joy, but death can only weep. You see in death escape from what you made. But this you do not see---that you made death, and it is but illusion of an end. Death cannot be escape because it is not life in which the problem lies. Life has no opposite, for it is God. Life and death seem to be opposites because you have decided that death ends life. Forgive the world, and you will understand that everything which God created cannot have an end, and nothing He did not create is real. In this one sentence is our course explained. In this one sentence is our practicing given its one direction. And in this the Holy Spirit's whole curriculum is specified exactly as it is.
6 What is the peace of God? No more than this-the simple understanding that His Will is wholly without opposite. There is no thought that contradicts His Will yet can be true. The contrast between His Will and yours but seemed to be reality. In truth there is no conflict because His Will is yours. Now is the mighty Will of God Himself His gift to you. He does not seek to keep it for Himself. Why would you seek to keep your tiny, frail imaginings apart from Him? The Will of God is one and all there is. This is your heritage. The universe beyond the sun and stars and all the thoughts of which you can conceive belong to you. God's peace is the condition for His Will. Attain His peace, and you remember Him.
