A Course in Miracles Quotes:
"Prayer is the medium of miracles. It is a means of communication of the created with the Creator. Through prayer love is received, and through miracles love is expressed." (ACIM T-1.I.11)
"Prayer is a way offered by the Holy Spirit to reach God. It is not merely a question or an entreaty. It cannot succeed until you realize that it asks for nothing. (ACIM S-1.I.1.1-3)
"Prayer is a stepping aside; a letting go, a quiet time of listening and loving." (ACIM S-1.1.5.1)
“In my prayers and reaching to feel my connection with Source, “Father” is my favorite term to use for God. Something about the “ah” sound in the word Father opens my heart. Part II of the Workbook is filled with beautiful prayers to the Father, and I am using them to present three songs of the Father: Father, I Come To You, Father, My Father, and Song of Prayer.”
—Resta Burnham
“Prayer is a means of communication of the created with the Creator. Through prayer love is received, and through miracles love is expressed.” [from Chapter One] “Prayer is a way offered by the Holy Spirit to reach God. It is not merely a question or an entreaty. It cannot succeed until you realize that it asks for nothing. Ask to receive what is already given; to accept what is already there. Prayer is a stepping aside; a letting go, a quiet time of listening and loving.”
[from The Song of Prayer]
Lyrics:
My heart turns to You and opens to Your shining stillness,
breath of light fragrantly sweet.
Warm wings of peace fold around me,
and I am held.
Father
Father
Father
The colors of my dream leap into the white Ray
that calls them home and calls them whole.
They sing
Father
Father
Father
The single I is bright with joy, soft with knowing.
It sees eternal Now, within and within
Father
Father
Father
Mind rests in the deep quiet of one Love,
Father
Father
Father
