The following ideas are for review today:
[41] God goes with me wherever I go.
How can I be alone when God always goes with me? How can I be doubtful and unsure of myself when perfect certainty abides in Him? How can I be disturbed by anything when He rests in me in absolute peace? How can I suffer when love and joy surround me through Him? Let me not cherish illusions about myself. I am perfect because God goes with me wherever I go.
[42] God is my strength. Vision is His gift.
Let me not look to my own eyes to see today. Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this gift today, so that this day may help me to understand eternity.
[43] God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him.
I can see what God wants me to see. I cannot see anything else. Beyond His Will lie only illusions. It is these I choose when I think I can see apart from Him. It is these I choose when I try to see through the body's eyes. Yet the vision of Christ has been given me to replace them. It is through this vision that I choose to see.
[44] God is the light in which I see.
I cannot see in darkness. God is the only Light. Therefore if I am to see, it must be through Him. I have tried to define what seeing is, and I have been wrong. Now it is given me to understand that God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the happy world it will show me.
[45] God is the Mind with which I think.
I have no thoughts I do not share with God. I have no thoughts apart from Him because I have no mind apart from His. As part of His Mind, my thoughts are His and His Thoughts are mine.

Lessons 41 to 45 affirm that God goes with you wherever you go, that He is your strength and vision is His gift, that He is your Source without whom you can see nothing, that He is the light in which you see, and that He is the Mind with which you think. It is a deep dive into divine intimacy.
How could you be alone when God always goes with you? How could you be uncertain or doubt yourself when perfect certainty rests in Him? How could you suffer when love and joy surround you through Him? You are perfect because God goes with you wherever you go. You do not need to rely on your own eyes to see. You exchange your poor illusion of seeing for the vision given by God. The vision of Christ is His gift, and He has given it to you.
God is the light in which you see. You cannot see in darkness. You have tried to define what seeing is, and you were wrong. Now you are given to understand that God is the light.

The review invites you to welcome the vision of Christ and the happy world it will show you, replacing the illusion of seeing with the body’s eyes with true vision.
Practice:
Today, for each lesson, take time to feel it in your body and heart. God is with you. God is your strength. God is your light. God is your Mind. Repeat these truths until they become your inner breath.
You do not live in a world separate from God. You live in Him, through Him, and with Him. This is the simplest and deepest truth.
