A Course in Miracles Daily Lesson 2

A Course in Miracles is a spiritual teaching that promotes forgiveness as the path to peace. Its heady mix of reinterpreted Christian language, modern psychological thought, and Eastern metaphysics makes it unlike any other spiritual teaching the world has ever known before.


This service sends you the ACIM Workbook Lesson of the day via email or text. It also includes Lesson Insights for that lesson.

The Purpose of a Day


Ultimately, the goal of ACIM is to bring you to some version of a spiritual day that deep in your heart you long for. It may be a day with no cares and no judgments, a day of forgiveness of others and yourself, or a day in which you seek only to hear God's voice. Whatever it is, you must set a daily purpose for it to be achieved.


The best way to accomplish this is through regular practice of the lessons and text. You can do this in one of two ways: one long sitting session each day for about 15 minutes, or frequent shorter practice sessions throughout the day of recalling and refocusing on the days lesson. Choose the longer sitting session that feels most doable, and set it for the same time each day. This will establish a regular pattern that will help you to train your mind in the new perception of reality that is offered in ACIM.


The ACIM workbook provides a variety of ways to help you in this practice. For example, every day you can receive a brief overview of the lesson title and prayer of the day by following @ACIMLessons on Twitter. Additionally, each lesson in the acim Workbook for Students includes a Lesson Insight section on the Pathways of Light website that offers helpful ideas to support your practice of the daily lesson. You can also use the ACIM Daily Text section as a reading guide and reflection tool to help you remain focused on your daily purpose.

The Will of God Is Now


Lesson two introduces the concept that God's will is all that matters. It is the one certainty that you can look for, and it will replace all your faith in fearful outcomes – disasters, pain and suffering. It will replace all the plans you made for safety that will never work, and it will show you the way to a world that sparkles with hope, and that is lit with love and filled with a gentle friendliness.


The lesson tells you that God's will is perfect because God is perfect, and all that He does is a reflection of His perfection. It tells you that ideas leave not their source, and that means that all evil thoughts are really just reflections of the fear-based belief that there is separation. These concepts are hard to take at first, but they will eventually help you see that the world you see does not reflect reality.


This lesson also teaches that cruelty comes from fear, and it is not the will of God. It explains that "ideas left not their source," so all cruel behavior is the result of a split mind that believes in separation. This is the belief that has caused fear and pain for many people throughout history.


It is the will of God that everyone join with Him in peace. The purpose of this world is to teach you that you are not alone, and that there is a place for all of us in His plan for peace. It is not possible for any of us to do God's will without joining with Him.

You Are Good Enough


Many religions teach that you may attain heaven one day if you become good enough. ACIM assures you that Heaven is here today, in the present moment, because that is where God wills His Son to be. He could not will you to be in the past or in the future, for time is an illusion. The only real purpose of your life is to practice the teachings of ACIM, so you can experience the miracles of Heaven.

Heaven Is Here Today


HEAVEN IS HERE (if you want it) is the inspiring memoir of Stephanie Nielson, whose acclaimed blog chronicled her love affair with her husband, fulfilling motherhood, close-knit community, and Mormon faith. The result is a riveting tale of resilience, forgiveness, and the beauty of everyday life.
