Lesson 325
All things I think I see reflect ideas.
W-pII.325.1. This is salvation's keynote: What I see reflects a process in my mind, which starts with my idea of what I want. 2 From there, the mind makes up an image of the thing the mind desires, judges valuable, and therefore seeks to find. 3 These images are then projected outward, looked upon, esteemed as real and guarded as one's own. 4 From insane wishes comes an insane world. 5 From judgment comes a world condemned. 6 And from forgiving thoughts a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while before he journeys on, and help his brothers walk ahead with him, and find the way to Heaven and to God.
W-pII.325.2. Our Father, Your ideas reflect the truth, and mine apart from Yours but make up dreams. 2 Let me behold what only Yours reflect, for Yours and Yours alone establish truth.
