340I can be free of suffering today.

13. What is a Miracle?

341I can attack but my own sinlessness,
And it is only that which keeps me safe

342I let forgiveness rest upon all things,
For thus forgiveness will be given me.

343I am not asked to make a sacrifice
To find the mercy and the peace of God.

344Today I learn the law of love; that what
I give my brother is my gift to me.

345I offer only miracles today,
For I would have them be returned to me.

346Today the peace of God envelops me,
And I forget all things except His Love.

347Anger must come from judgment. Judgment is
The weapon I would use against myself,
To keep the miracle away from me.

348I have no cause for anger or for fear,
For You surround me. And in every need
That I perceive, Your grace suffices me.

349Today I let Christ’s vision look upon
All things for me and judge them not, but give
Each one a miracle of love instead.

350Miracles mirror God’s eternal Love.
To offer them is to remember Him,
And through His memory to save the world.

14. What Am I?

351My sinless brother is my guide to peace.
My sinful brother is my guide to pain.
And which I choose to see I will behold.

352Judgment and love are opposites. From one
Come all the sorrows of the world. But from
The other comes the peace of God Himself.

353My eyes, my tongue, my hands, my feet today
Have but one purpose; to be given Christ
To use to bless the world with miracles.

354We stand together, Christ and I, in peace
And certainty of purpose. And in Him
Is His Creator, as He is in me.

355There is no end to all the peace and joy,
And all the miracles that I will give,
When I accept God’s Word. Why not today?

356Sickness is but another name for sin.
Healing is but another name for God.
The miracle is thus a call to Him.

357Truth answers every call we make to God,
Responding first with miracles, and then
Returning unto us to be itself.

358No call to God can be unheard nor left
Unanswered. And of this I can be sure;
His answer is the one I really want.

359God’s answer is some form of peace. All pain
Is healed; all misery replaced with joy.
All prison doors are opened. And all sin
Is understood as merely a mistake.

360Peace be to me, the holy Son of God.
Peace to my brother, who is one with me.
Let all the world be blessed with peace through us.
