Reading Through the Course, Text, Manual, and Supplements in One Year Text Reading for January 2, 2015 - Day 2 T-1.I.13. Miracles are both beginnings and endings, and so they alter the temporal order. 2 They are always affirmations of rebirth, which seem to go back but really go forward. 3 They undo the past in the present, and thus release the future. T-1.I.14. Miracles bear witness to truth. 2 They are convincing because they arise from conviction. 3 Without conviction they deteriorate into magic, which is mindless and therefore destructive; or rather, the uncreative use of mind. T-1.I.15. Each day should be devoted to miracles. 2 The purpose of time is to enable you to learn how to use time constructively. 3 It is thus a teaching device and a means to an end. 4 Time will cease when it is no longer useful in facilitating learning. T-1.I.16. Miracles are teaching devices for demonstrating it is as blessed to give as to receive. 2 They simultaneously increase the strength of the giver and supply strength to the receiver. T-1.I.17. Miracles transcend the body. 2 They are sudden shifts into invisibility, away from the bodily level. 3 That is why they heal. T-1.I.18. A miracle is a service. 2 It is the maximal service you can render to another. 3 It is a way of loving your neighbor as yourself. 4 You recognize your own and your neighbors worth simultaneously. T-1.I.19. Miracles make minds one in God. 2 They depend on cooperation because the Sonship is the sum of all that God created. 3 Miracles therefore reflect the laws of eternity, not of time. T-1.I.20. Miracles reawaken the awareness that the spirit, not the body, is the altar of truth. 2 This is the recognition that leads to the healing power of the miracle. T-1.I.21. Miracles are natural signs of forgiveness. 2 Through miracles you accept Gods forgiveness by extending it to others. T-1.I.22. Miracles are associated with fear only because of the belief that darkness can hide. 2 You believe that what your physical eyes cannot see does not exist. 3 This leads to a denial of spiritual sight. T-1.I.23. Miracles rearrange perception and place all levels in true perspective. 2 This is healing because sickness comes from confusing the levels. T-1.I.24. Miracles enable you to heal the sick and raise the dead because you made sickness and death yourself, and can therefore abolish both. 2 You are a miracle, capable of creating in the likeness of your Creator. 3 Everything else is your own nightmare, and does not exist. 4 Only the creations of light are real. T-1.I.25. Miracles are part of an interlocking chain of forgiveness which, when completed, is the Atonement. 2 Atonement works all the time and in all the dimensions of time.
