Remembering Our True Identity

The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of God within me sets me free.

Pain is my own idea. It is not a Thought of God, but one I thought apart from Him and from His Will. His Will is joy, and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I choose, instead of what I made.

In silence and in true humility I seek God’s glory, to behold it in the Son whom He created as my Self.

I seek the function that would set me free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I accept as mine. (, A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 209, W-pI.209-212. See also ACIM Lesson 209 Insights.)

It doesn’t seem that we are God’s Son, united in His Love, joy and peace. This is because we believe in a false identity that is acting out the idea that separation is real. By accepting this belief we see only a world that confirms separation is real. We see only what we want to see. By choosing to believe in separation we see separation’s representations to the exclusion of Reality. Selective seeing does not change Reality but makes Reality unknown to us.

By choosing the peace of God and His joy, by choosing to recognize God did not make pain and that we remain His Son, we renounce the false self-image that has denied Truth. Each time we accept the Holy Spirit’s vision in place of the ego’s denial of Truth, we open our minds to remember we are all united as the one Self God created as His Son. In that unity we remember our oneness with our Creator. We remember eternal Love. We remember we are not a body; we remain as God created us.
