4-47. Nothing is impossible. All that you truly do desire is only to experience Peace everlasting. This can be found by you in any and every moment. Trust that God will guide you Home.
Peace is not possible for the ego, for the ego does not want it. That is the most elegantly simple explanation of the perversity of the ego and its endless quest for new and varied sources of conflict, for the ego is at war with itself and it cannot establish a demilitarization zone anywhere along any of its battlelines, for to relent and declare a truce would be tantamount to an admission that the presumptions and errors that underlie all that is of the ego would be the first step towards undoing all of their effects, permanently and irretrievably. It is not impossible to be at Peace - in Truth it is inevitable and unavoidable, for all that is conflict is illusion and all that is of Love exists in a state of complete acceptance of its Nature - unconcerned with error, Love Knows Itself and so it is Unitary with God and with the Truth of Creation. That is not at all the state that the ego subsists within, for the ego is an error of perception and so it must maintain such an illusion for its own sake, lest it become seen as what it is and then undone instantly and completely. It is not impossible to see through all of the machination and prevarications of the ego - it Truth, it is actually impossible that you will not, although when that most glorious and hallowed moment arises for you is wholly within your own ambit and control. It will not be forced upon you, for that would contravene the nature of your Free Will, and not even God would be so cruel as to take from you that which is intrinsic to God and to Truth - that it is Free and unrestricted in every way, always and without exception. That you can attempt to abridge your ability to See beyond all of the presupposed limitations that a temporary existence within the world of form is true does not imply that you will be successful in your quest. Does the sleeper wink out of existence simply because they are unaware of their physical surroundings on a conscious level, instead occupying a dream world of their own formulation while their body recovers from the day’s efforts? Certainly they do not disappear and then become reincorporated in form once they awake. In the same manner, forgetting the Love of God is in no way equivalent to losing its Grace, for while you can attempt to remake this world in your own image and with a set of principles that reflect the madness of the ego, still you remain Created in the Image of God, and so no matter what you imagine, you do not have the power to alter that which is Eternal. And you would never wish to be able to do so, if you had a clear and undenied understanding of your place within the extensiveness of Creation, for while you are not dispensable in any way at all, you are certainly welcome to stop participating in Creation, holding yourself still and silent, expanding not at all and experiencing nothing that is genuine and Real, for just as long as you’d like while you believe that you are dissimilar from God, and thusly cast out of the Grace and Light of Love. You are not. But it is of no consequence if you believe that you are, for you alter nothing and expend no time at all that is of service to you, for to remain the same is acceptable. To attempt to contract is not unacceptable - it simply is not possible. Such Love that is, to allow you to become more than you were, or to grant you the ability to remain just the same, awaiting the time when you are once again willing to expand and to slough off yet another layer of presumption that has served only to blind you to your own Light. This world, and its many occupants, will set forth examples of what it is to desire, including a vast array of materialistic obsessions that cannot possibly hope to still the sadness of an unfulfilled heart, for all that is of form is neutral - it is never able to fill in for a disconnection that you have elected to pursue, for just as long as you look without for what which must dwell only within. All that you wish to believe that you want is not at all what you think it might be, for there is only the Peace of God, and all that is not of the Unity of mind that accompanies a surrender to the present moment and a final relinquishment of all that is coveted in any form at all. Peace cannot be taken from another so that you might have more, or given up on your part so that another might acquire a greater measure that whatever amount they believe they are capable of experiencing. Love does not diminish when it is expressed, nor does it travel anywhere at all when it is accepted. Just as is the Nature of God, Love and Peace can only expand - they are indefatigable, unlimited and ever-replenishing, and so they cannot be lost or expended in any manner that might dilute or diminish their reach and power. This is not at all a dissimilar equivalence to your own True Nature - you can subsist in error, denying that which is Truth, or you can become more than you were, ever expanding and accepting more and more of what it will be for you to Experience the Love of God whilst you remain in form. All that will quell any further desire for external forms of acquisition or validation is your acceptance of your own infinite nature, always perfect, capable of knowing all that is needed at any time and ever joined with the Heart of God at the level of your soul, an inseverable connection that needs no qualification or justification, for it is Complete, and so it is Eternal. The Peace you seek, even if you know it not, you already have. You are not devoid of the Love of God, and so you want for nothing at all. All that is of form is temporary. All that is of Love is Infinite. Seek not to understand this statement as some form of fact or presentation of logic that can be supported or repudiated. Allow its infinite wisdom to sink lower, or rise higher as is best expressed in metaphor for you, so that its revelations can be slowly uncovered, with each step becoming ever more trusted so that the next layer of Truth can be entered into without hesitation or fear. Because the past is but a memory in your mind, and the future a great panoply of possibility, the only place to connect with the Mind of God directly is in the present moment. It is easy to presume that the present moment is brief - it is not. It is infinitely long, possessed of all of the space that you will ever need to transcend all beliefs in limitations, for the present moment is the point of conjunction with Truth that is ever accessible and eternally available, no matter what it was that you sought out previously as justification for a dissociative belief in disconnection from God. You are not singular. You are Unitary with Love. You are not alone. You are accompanied by God at all times, in all places and with all others that you encounter. You are not forgotten - the Mind of God has retained all that can be known for you, so that nothing can ever be lost to the great depths of time that have fallen behind you as you have progressed back towards the Light that calls you Home. Accept that you can be shown how it is that your Path back to God will unfold, and you will be, for there is nothing that can restrict the Will of God and you will never be lost upon the face of a world that is not your home, no matter how temporary your residence here will be. Guidance is ever-present. Love is ever-consistent. Truth is ever-valid. All of this is for you, Created by Perfection and accessible through your heart. Surrender to your Guidance and you will see that it was never that you were lost - you merely dreamed it could be so, only to awaken to find that you were always kept Safe within the Heart of God. Because of your eternal Safety, no calamity can ever alter the Truth that Love is who you have always been and will always be.
