We have so many goals, but at certain points we often feel that none of them have brought us the satisfaction we were longing for. With this lesson, we remember to make God our highest goal.Let me remember that my goal is God.All that is needful is to train our minds to overlook all little senseless aims, and to remember that our goal is God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which offer nothing, and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow God's grace to shine in unawareness, while the toys and trinkets of the world are sought instead? God is our only goal, our only Love.

What could we seek but our Identity?Quote of the Day"We don't get our lives together and then give them to God, but rather we give our lives to God and then things start coming together.

But that's a delay technique by which the ego tries to keep us from showing up fully in our own lives. Even if we don't yet consider ourselves successful, we can devote our work now to being used in the service of the healing of the world. From that point of power our careers will take off."—Excerpted from A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles
