The Power of Forgiveness

Rejoice in the power of forgiveness to heal your sight completely. Be confident that on this day there is a new beginning. Without the darkness of the past upon your eyes, you cannot fail to see today. And what you see will be so welcome that you will gladly extend today forever.

We dedicate this day to the serenity in which God would have you be. Keep it in your awareness of yourself and see it everywhere today, as we celebrate the beginning of your vision and the sight of the real world, which has come to replace the unforgiven world you thought was real. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.75.9:4-7;11:1-2)

Serenity is our natural state. It is the condition in which Love created us. The world seems to be anything but serene because we believe we are separate from Love. The separation casts a dark shadow of fear and guilt that hides our innate serenity from our awareness.

Forgiveness, letting go of believing we are separate from Love, restores Love’s Light to our awareness. Forgiveness dispels the shadows so that we return again to our serene state, knowing we are safe in the changeless oneness of Love. The Light of Love comes more strongly into our awareness each time we let go of an unforgiving thought, a mistaken perception of harm.

Today we watch carefully for thoughts that disturb our peace and take them to the Holy Spirit with willingness to receive His vision in place of our misperceptions. As we forgive, the Light of Heaven shines ever more strongly on the world and we remember our Home.
