Accepting Holy Spirit’s Gift of Peace

Before a holy relationship there is no sin. The form of error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with love, looks quietly on all confusion, observing merely, “This was a mistake.” And then the same Atonement you accepted in your relationship corrects the error, and lays a part of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who let this gift be given! Each part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And every empty place in Heaven that you fill again with the eternal light you bring, shines now on you. The means of sinlessness can know no fear because they carry only love with them.

Child of peace, the light has come to you. The light you bring you do not recognize, and yet you will remember. Who can deny himself the vision that he brings to others? And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His means must love all that He loves. And what you bring is your remembrance of everything that is eternal. No trace of anything in time can long remain in a mind that serves the timeless. And no illusion can disturb the peace of a relationship that has become the means of peace. (A Course in Miracles, T-22.VI.5-6. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)

The Holy Spirit’s purpose is to lead our minds to the recognition that we remain unchanged as God created us. We serve the Holy Spirit’s purpose by letting the Holy Spirit help us forgive our thoughts of separation, guilt and fear. Each time we accept His help we let the brilliant Light of Heaven into our minds. The Light of Heaven shines ever more brightly each time we let go of a barrier to the awareness of Love’s presence. Love is everywhere to be seen. We need only let go of mistaken beliefs that hide it from our vision.

The holy relationship, dedicated to forgiveness, is the classroom for the Holy Spirit’s lessons. It is how we learn to open to His gifts of freedom and peace. We accept these gifts as we share them with our brother. For it is in the sharing that we learn that they belong to us.

Today we practice bringing all our guilty, fearful and judgmental thoughts to the Holy Spirit for His loving correction.
