Accepting Miracles in Place of Grievances

Let me recognize the problem so it can be solved. Let me realize today that the problem is always some form of grievance that I would cherish. Let me also understand that the solution is always a miracle with which I let the grievance be replaced. Today I would remember the simplicity of salvation by reinforcing the lesson that there is one problem and one solution. The problem is a grievance; the solution is a miracle. And I invite the solution to come to me through my forgiveness of the grievance, and my welcome of the miracle that takes its place. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 90, W-pI.90.1. See also ACIM Lesson 90 Insights.)

God’s Will for us is perfect happiness. If we are not supremely happy, then we are holding a grievance against God. This grievance may appear in the world as a situation that is disturbing to us. Or it may be something somebody said or did that upsets us. These are just projections of the underlying grievance against God that is the basis of the ego thought system of separation.

As long as we identify with the ego thought system and claim it as our own, we will be caught in a never ending cycle of grievances, anger and guilt. But we have been given a way out. The Holy Spirit provides the answer to every grievance. If we are willing to receive His answer, the grievance which divides us from everything is replaced by the miracle that joins us in the unity of Love.

The Holy Spirit serves as a bridge between the false idea of grievances and the reality that only Love is real. To escape from the repetitive cycle of grievances, we need to be willing to pause and turn our attention to the Holy Spirit with willingness to receive His perception in place of our misguided perceptions.

Today we choose to open our minds to the Holy Spirit’s gift of true perception. Thus will we accept miracles in place of grievances.
