Lesson 265
Creation's gentleness is all I see.
W-pII.265.1. I have indeed misunderstood the world, because I laid my sins on it and saw them looking back at me. 2 How fierce they seemed! 3 And how deceived was I to think that what I feared was in the world, instead of in my mind alone. 4 Today I see the world in the celestial gentleness with which creation shines. 5 There is no fear in it. 6 Let no appearance of my sins obscure the light of Heaven shining on the world. 7 What is reflected there is in God's Mind. 8 The images I see reflect my thoughts. 9 Yet is my mind at one with God's. 10 And so I can perceive creation's gentleness.
W-pII.265.2. In quiet would I look upon the world, which but reflects Your Thoughts, and mine as well. 2 Let me remember that they are the same, and I will see creation's gentleness.
