One of the many delightful things that you will discover when you awaken from your rather long sleep is how bright, clear, and enthusiastically alive everything appears to be, and this will not just be due to appearances, for those are of the illusion. And as you become more in alignment with being fully awake, fully conscious, the strength of those sensations will intensify as your ability to experience them grows. It will not be an instantaneous awakening into the full brilliance of God’s Presence because that would be overwhelming for you at first; instead the brilliance will increase gently at the pace that is most suited to your growing abilities to align yourselves with them.
~Jesus~ Peace can only prevail when peaceful means are employed to obtain it
Your Father’s Love for you is total, infinite, and constant, He never forgets even one of you for as much as an instant. You are permanently enveloped in His divine embrace, safe, secure, and at peace, needing nothing and desiring nothing because you have everything – He gave you everything when He created you.
One of the many unfortunate aspects of your illusion is your inability to clearly perceive and understand the oneness of all that exists. Because all is one in God there is absolutely nothing to fear. Within the illusion things appear in a totally different light, and a seemingly defensive action against another is inevitably an attack on oneself (the word light is perhaps not the most appropriate one to use in this context).
