Lesson 361–365

If I need a Word to help me, Spirit will give this to me. If I need a Thought, that will It also give. And if I just need stillness and a tranquil, open heart and mind, these are the Gifts I will receive of It.

Spirit is in charge by my request. And It will hear and answer me, because It speaks for the Divine, our Creator, and Its holy Children.

Epilogue

This Course is a beginning, not an end. Your Friend, with whom you are united, goes with you all the way. Everyone who calls on It will be answered. Be certain that It has the Answer to whatever troubles you, and will gladly give It to you if you simply turn to It and ask the Answer of It. It will provide all answers that you need for anything that seems to trouble you. It knows the way to solve all problems and resolve all doubts. Its Certainty is yours. You need only ask It of Spirit, and It will be given you.

You are as certain of arriving Home as is the pathway of the Sun established before it rises, after it has set, and in all the hours in between. Indeed, your Pathway is more certain still, for it cannot be possible to change the course of those whom the Divine has called to It. Therefore abide by your true will, and follow Spirit – the Divine’s Voice Whom you accepted as your voice – Who speaks and reminds you of what you really want and truly need in every situation. Being your true voice that speaks to you, It speaks of Freedom and of Truth.

No more specific lessons are assigned in this Course, for there is no need of them. Henceforth, hear only the Voice of the Divine and of your holy Self as you release the world to seek Reality instead. Spirit will guide your efforts, telling you exactly what to do, how to direct your mind, and when to come to It in silence, asking for Its sure Direction and Its certain Word. Spirit’s is the Word that the Divine has given you. Its is the Word you have chosen to be your own.

Now you are secure in Spirit’s Hands, to be Its faithful followers, with It as Guide through every difficulty and all pain that you may think is real. Nor will It give you pleasures that will pass away, for It gives only the Eternal and the Good. Let It prepare you further. It has earned your trust by speaking daily to you of your Creator, your sisters and brothers, and your holy Self. It will continue. Now you walk with It as certain as is It of where you go, as sure as It of how you should proceed, as confident as It is of the Goal, and of your safe arrival in the end.

The Ending of the journey to awakening is certain, as are the Means to this End. To this we say “Amen.” We will be told exactly what the Divine wills for us each time there is a choice to make. And Spirit will speak for the Divine and for your Self, thus making sure of your release from the nightmare of separation, and that each choice you make brings your feet nearer to the Gate of Heaven. And so we walk with It from this time on, and turn to It for Guidance and for Peace and sure Direction. Joy attends our way. For we go homeward to an open Door that the Divine holds open to welcome us.

We trust our ways to Spirit and say “Amen.” In Peace we will continue in Its Way, and trust all things to It. In confidence we wait Its Answers, as we ask Its Will in everything we do. It loves the Divine’s Children as we would love them, and It teaches us how to behold them through Its Eyes, and love them as It does. You walk with mighty Companions. The Divine’s Angels hover close and all about. Its Love surrounds you, and of this be sure: that I will be with you always.
