Remembering We Are as God Created Us

[I am as God created me is] the one idea which brings complete salvation; the one statement which makes all forms of temptation powerless; the one thought which renders the ego silent and entirely undone. You are as God created you. The sounds of this world are still, the sights of this world disappear, and all the thoughts that this world ever held are wiped away forever by this one idea. Here is salvation accomplished. Here is sanity restored.

True light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you remain as God created you, you must be strong and light must be in you.

I am as God created me.
I am His Son eternally.

Now try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that never sinned [or experienced separation or lack of Love], nor made an image to replace reality. This is the Self that never left Its home in God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the Self that knows no fear, nor could conceive of loss or suffering or death.

Each [time you practice] will be a giant stride toward your release, and a milestone in learning the thought system which this course sets forth. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 94, W-pI.94.1:1-2:2;3:3-8;5:8-9. See also ACIM Lesson 94 Insights.)

God’s Son remains united with his Creator and shares all His attributes. This means the Son of God is eternal and unchangeable. The choice to believe in separation from God could only seem to be real in a dream. Separation could not really occur because separating from God would change God, an impossibility.

The choice to believe in separation induced a sleep with a dream that made separation seem real. The physics theory of the big bang is the world’s explanation for the choice to believe in separation. But that choice led to a dream of separation layered upon separation. All seeming life in the dream is built upon the thought of separation. Cells reproduce by splitting; DNA mutate by splitting off; bodies reproduce by making another body. All the change that appears in the dream comes from the belief in separation. Death is the dream’s ultimate “proof” that separation is real. Yet its seeming reality is only held together by belief.

As we withdraw our belief in separation, the dream unravels. The Teacher of the lesson that only Love is real calls to us in every moment. As we hear the call, we begin to see past the veil woven by belief to the light and strength that is the Son of God. The forms and structures of the world diminish in their importance and the Love that is truly everywhere becomes more and more evident. Guilt and fear fade and the recognition of innocence and experience of changeless Love come forward. When we have let go of all the false images, we awaken from the dream and remember we are Home in the Heart of Love. We remember we are as God created us.
