Be at perfect peace. Do not strain to understand that which is not for your understanding. When I wish to convey something to you, it will be done without effort, for I will throw the light of truth onto it. It will be revealed to you, and you will be left in no doubt as to the meaning of it. When I say that life is effortless, that is exactly what I mean. There is far too much strain and effort in life. How can you hope to be at peace when you are straining and striving all the time? Let My peace which passes all understanding infil and enfold you, for when you are at peace within, you reflect peace without, and all those souls you meet will feel that peace. Let nothing disturb or distress you. Simply know that all is in My hands, and all is very, very well. So lift up your heart in deep love, praise and gratitude, and go forth this day at peace.
在完美的平靜中。不要給自己壓力去理解不應是被我所能理解的事物。當上天想給我傳達某事，無需用力就可以被完成，因上天會用真理之光照向它。它會被揭示於我，而我會對其中的意義毫無疑問。當上天說生命是無需用力的，上天正是這個意思。生命中有太多的緊張與用力了。如果我總是在壓力與鬥爭之中，我又怎麼能期望自己處於平靜的狀態呢？讓上天那超越一切理解的平靜流入我圍繞我，因當我的內在是平靜的，我會向外反映出來，所有我所遇見在我身邊的靈魂都會感受到那平靜。不要讓任何事干擾我、擾亂我。僅僅只需知道一切都在上天的掌握之中，並且一切都非常非常好。因此將我的心在深深的愛、讚美與感恩中舉起，然後在平靜中繼續這一天。
