God is with me

God is with me
He is my Source of life, the life within
the air I breathe, the food by which I am sustained
the water which renews and cleanses me

上主與我同在
祂是我的生命源頭,我的內在生命
我呼吸的空氣,滋養我的食物,也是更新我、淨化我的水泉

He is my home, wherein I live and move
the Spirit which directs my actions
offers me Its Thoughts, and guarantees my safety from all pain

祂是我的居所,行住坐臥都在祂內
聖靈時時指引我的言行,賜我祂的聖念
保護我不受一切痛苦侵擾

He covers me with kindness and with care
and holds in love the Son He shines upon, who also shines on Him
How still is he who knows the truth of what He speaks today!

祂仁慈地護守著我,光耀著摯愛的聖子
而聖子也同樣返照於祂
能體悟此一真理之人,心靈多麼平安!

I rest in God today

I rest in God today
and let Him work in me and through me
while I rest in Him in quiet and in perfect certainty

今天,我在上主內安息
靜靜地安棲於祂內,全然篤定
願祂在我內運作,並透過我作工

W120: 1



The Thought of God created you
It left you not, nor have you ever been apart from it an instant
It belongs to you. By it you live
It is your Source of life, holding you one with it
and every­thing is one with you because it left you not

上主的聖念創造了你
它片刻都不曾離開過你,你也從未與它分離
它屬於你,而你賴它而活
它是你的生命之源,並與你一體不分
正因它始終與你同在,你便與萬物合而為一

The Thought of God protects you, cares for you
makes soft your resting place and smooth your way
lighting your mind with happiness and love
Eternity and everlasting life shine in your mind
because the Thought of God has left you not, and still abides with you

上主的聖念守護著你、看顧著你
讓你的安息之處溫軟舒適,使你的道途平坦穩當
以愛與喜悅點亮你的心靈
正因上主的聖念未曾離開,持續與你同在
永恆生命的光芒始終都在你的心中綻放

W165: 2



Be in my mind, my Father
when I wake, and shine on me throughout the day today
Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You
And let me not forget my hourly thanksgiving
that You have remained with me, and always will be there
to hear my call to You and answer me

天父,請祢與我同在
從我初醒之際,在這一整天都時時眷顧我
願每一分鐘都成為與祢共處的時刻
且每小時都不忘感謝祢的持續相伴
以及傾聽與俯允我的祈求

As evening comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and of Your Love
And let me sleep sure of my safety, certain of Your care
and happily aware I am Your Son

到了夜晚,願我的心仍記念著祢及祢的聖愛
願我在入夢之際全然安心,信賴祢的看顧
並慶幸自己始終都是祢的聖子

The miracle comes quietly into the mind

The miracle comes quietly into the mind
that stops an instant and is still
It reaches gently from that quiet time
and from the mind it healed in quiet then
to other minds to share its quietness

內在只要靜止片刻,奇蹟便會翩然而至
在靜謐時分悄然療癒那顆寧靜的心
同時溫柔地流向其他心靈,欣然分享自己的安寧

And they will join in doing nothing
to prevent its radiant extension back into the Mind
Which caused all minds to be born out of sharing

於是它們都能齊心一致
不再阻礙奇蹟將燦爛的光輝反映回天心
那是所有心靈的故鄉,因著祂分享的本質而誕生

There can be no pause in time
to cause the miracle delay in hastening to all unquiet minds
and bringing them an instant's stillness
when the memory of God returns to them

就連時間也無法阻礙奇蹟的腳步
輕叩每一扇不平安的心門,捎來片刻的寧靜
在這一刻他們便會憶起上主

Their own remembering is quiet now
and what has come to take its place
will not be wholly unremembered afterwards

個人的記憶遂黯然褪去
而那取代而之的
從今而後也再無法徹底遺忘了

Love Song

Music by: Martin - Spirit Am I

My Lord, my Love, my Life, I live in you.
There is no life apart from what you are.
I breathe your words, I rest upon your arms.
My sight is hallowed by your single star.

I do not always recognize your face,
Or hear your Voice. I do not always see
The strangers whom you send are messengers
You choose to bring your holy Word to me.

You are the stranger then. And I am dead
To holy things that Heaven’s light shines through.
The world I see is enemy to me
When I forget my lovely Love is you.

Forgetting you is to forget myself,
Why I have come and where it is I go.
My Lord, my Love, my Life, let me forget
All things except the loveliness you know.

- Helen Schucman January 8, 1977


Awake in Stillness

Music by: Martin - Spirit Am I

Peace cover you, within without the same,
In shining silence and in peace so deep
No dream of sin and evil can come near
Your quiet mind. And then in stillness wake.
First there is silence; then awakening.

Now is the time appointed for the end
Of dreaming. Still the cradle where you come
To be reborn. The Christ is stirring in
The home that He has chosen as His Own.

His vision rests upon your eyes, and soon
You will behold His face, and will forget
The fantasies that seemed to be so real
Until the stillness came. The Son of God
Has come to join you now. His shining hand
Is on your shoulder. And God's silent Voice
Speaks ceaselessly of Heaven. You will hear
His single message calling to His Own
From His abiding place, to wake in God.

- Helen Schucman, January 15, 1974


The Risen Sun


Be still, my soul, and rest upon the Lord
In quiet certainty. For He has come
To rescue you from doubt. And now you stand
In blazing glory of a risen sun
That cannot set. It will forever be
Exactly as it is. You stand with Him
Within a radiance prepared for you
Before time was and far beyond its reach.

Be still and know. And knowing, be you sure
Your Lord has come to you. There is no doubt
That stands before His countenance, nor can
Conceal from you what He would have you see.
The sun has risen. He has come at last.

Where stands his Presence there can be no past.
Be still, my soul, and rest upon the Lord
Who comes to keep the promise of His Word.

- Helen Schucman February 11, 1974


Love which created me is what I am

Love which created me is what I am


W229




Let us be still an instant

and forget all things we ever learned, all thoughts we had
and every preconception we hold of what things mean
and what their purpose is
Let us remember not our own ideas of what the world is for
We do not know
Let every image held of everyone be loosen from our minds
and swept away

且讓我們安靜片刻
忘卻所學的一切,放下一切念頭
以及對萬物意義與目的所持的種種成見
別再執著我們舊有的世界觀了
我們什麼都不知道
放下你為每個人營造的種種形象,目送它們消逝

Be innocent of judgement
Unaware of any thoughts of evil or good
that ever crossed your mind of anyone
Now do you know him not
But you are free to learn of him, and learn of him anew
Now is he born again to you, and you are born again to him
without the past that sentenced him to die, and you with him

忘卻一切判斷吧
不再理會心中對任何人的善惡之念
如今,你對他一無所知
卻能自在地重新瞭解他了
如今,他對你好似重生之人,而你對他也是如此
再不會像過去那般想置他於死地,甚或同歸於盡了

Now is he free to live, as you are free
Because the ancient learning passed away
and left the place for truth to be reborn

他終於與你一樣,活出自由的生命
千百萬劫習得的一切終得化解
還給真理一席之地重生
