LESSON 290

My present happiness is all I see.

1. 1Unless I look upon what is not there, my present happiness is all I see. 2Eyes that begin to open see at last. 3And I would have Christ’s vision come to me this very day. 4What I perceive with­out God’s Own Correction for the sight I made is frightening and painful to behold. 5Yet I would not allow my mind to be deceived by the belief the dream I made is real an instant longer. 6This the day I seek my present happiness, and look on nothing else except the thing I seek.

2. 1With this resolve I come to You, and ask Your strength to hold me up today, while I but seek to do Your Will. 2You cannot fail to hear me, Father. 3What I ask have You already given me. 4And I am sure that I will see my happiness today.
