Lesson 86
These ideas are for review today:
1. (71) **Only God’s plan for salvation will work.**
²It is senseless for me to search wildly about for salvation. ³I have seen it in many people and in many things, but when I reached for it, it was not there. ⁴I was mistaken about where it is. ⁵I was mistaken about what it is. ⁶I will undertake no more idle seeking. ⁷Only God’s plan for salvation will work. ⁸And I will rejoice because His plan can never fail.
2. These are some suggested forms for applying this idea specifically:
²God’s plan for salvation will save me from my perception of this.
³This is no exception in God’s plan for my salvation.
⁴Let me perceive this only in the light of God’s plan for salvation.
3. (72) **Holding grievances is an attack on God’s plan for salvation.**
²Holding grievances is an attempt to prove that God’s plan for salvation will not work. ³Yet only His plan will work. ⁴By holding grievances, I am therefore excluding my only hope of salvation from my awareness. ⁵I would no longer defeat my own best interests in this insane way. ⁶I would accept God’s plan for salvation, and be happy.
4. Specific applications for this idea might be in these forms:
²I am choosing between misperception and salvation as I look on this.
³If I see grounds for grievances in this, I will not see the grounds for my salvation.
⁴This calls for salvation, not attack.
