Father, I was created in Your Mind, a holy Thought that never left its home. I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. As You created me I have remained. Where You established me I still abide. And all Your attributes abide in me, because it is Your Will to have a Son so like his Cause that Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know that I am an Effect of God, and so I have the power to create like You. And as it is in Heaven, so on earth. Your plan I follow here, and at the end I know that You will gather Your effects into the tranquil Heaven of Your Love, where earth will vanish, and all separate thoughts unite in glory as the Son of God. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 326, W-pII.326.1. See also ACIM Lesson 326 Insights.)
Because God is Love and He created His Son to be exactly like Himself, our true Nature must be Love. As we learn to see through the vision of our true Nature, we see the Love in every brother and nothing else. Only belief in separation stands as a barrier to the recognition of the loving Nature in everyone.
It is our mistaken perceptions, based on the foundation of belief separation is real, that must be forgiven. God’s plan for our return to His Heaven is brought to us through His Voice. This is our Inner Teacher, Who will teach us lovingly to recognize that all our judgments, our guilt and our fears are based on a mistaken belief that separation is real.
If we are willing to receive His loving lessons, our thoughts will be transformed. Fear and guilt will fade away. We will see Christ in every brother and we will recognize that we are the Effect of Love’s extension. Today we ask our inner Teacher for His strength and His help to look past imagined separation to the true Nature of Love in everyone.
