Take No Thought for Tomorrow

In the Bible, Jesus tells us to take no thought for tomorrow; that the Kingdom of Heaven have been in hand. He emphasizes residing in today's moment, in the eternal Now. He gives us the key element to peace and eternal life. They're the Heralds of Eternity!

God is pure love, and God really desires to reveal pure love where everything is shared. “In the holy instant God is remembered, and the language of communication with all of your brothers is remembered with Him.” (T-15.VI.8) In the holy instant, we remember God. There's no concealment, and you can find no private thoughts, no worries or concerns for future years, or regrets regarding the past. It's an event of perfect peace. This is exactly what Jesus is calling us into.

We're asked to forget about our ideas about time. We may have believed that something was missing previously, and we took action to make use of and correct it, desiring an improved future. But Jesus says, “Don't expect an improved future. The long term is really a trick! Now might be all there is.”

And so we're now asking ourselves the question, what's it exactly about? What's the purpose with this specific world and for my relationships? What's the goal of time and space? Jesus tells us that today's moment would be the point. Our vocation of healing (of the mind) would be the point.

How Practical Is This?

Jesus and the Holy Spirit have a notion for every single and everyone of us. It's very precise, and it is individualized. In each moment, they instruct us where to go, what direction to go, and who to be with. They instruct us what books to see, what movies to watch, things to consume, and what to never eat. a course in miracles podcast We receive instructions on how to get our daily bread, in terms of inspiration and also food, clothing, shelter. The Spirit is really practical. Once we give our mind to living and experiencing the holy instant, the Holy Spirit provides everything we want in Earth terms.

When you can find plans to be produced, i will undoubtedly be told of them. “You'll need take thought for nothing, careless of everything except the only real purpose that you'd fulfill.” (T-20.IV.8) In lesson 135, he tells us:

“A healed mind doesn't plan. It carries out the plans so that it receives through hearing wisdom that's not its own. It waits until it's been taught what should be achieved, and then proceeds to accomplish it. It generally doesn't depend upon itself for anything except its adequacy to fulfill the plans assigned to it. It's secure in certainty that obstacles can't impede its progress to accomplishment of any goal that serves the more plan established for the truly amazing of everyone.” (W-pI.135.11)
