We Are the Same Love

In this world it may appear that there are differences in love. It appears as if love can come and go and change into different forms. All this is the ego’s way of interpreting what Love is.

In truth, we are all the same Love, and everyone is included equally in the united Love we are. God has shared all of Himself with everyone equally. Inherent in God’s Love is true equality, true union, true sharing of All That Is with all.

Today our practice is to recognize the reality of everyone as Love and nothing else. In that recognition, we learn that we are Love and nothing else. This is accepting the truth and extending the truth to everyone we meet or think of.

This is how we heal and are healed today. This is how we serve as Love’s messenger today. We remember the truth and see the truth in everyone. We let the veil of separation be lifted and accept the miracle that shows us Love is everywhere equally and eternally.

Accepting God’s Loving Kindness

In truth, we are totally immersed in God’s loving kindness. We are gradually learning to accept this truth about where we are and what we are. We accept this loving kindness by extending it to include everyone, and awareness of our true Identity comes with it.

Today our practice is to accept God’s loving kindness and extend it to everyone we meet or think of. The happiness that comes with this acceptance fills our heart and mind as we go through this wonderful day. And we give thanks.

Two Ways of Seeing

The world you see must be denied for sight of it is costing you a different kind of vision. You cannot see both worlds, for each of them involves a different kind of seeing, and depends on what you cherish. (A Course in Miracles, T-13-VII.2:1-2)

Because we cannot see both worlds at the same time, we must be willing to relinquish one to see the other.

The ego offers us its own instrument of “seeing” — the body’s eyes. Since the body itself is an illusion, the body’s eyes can show us only illusions. But we have another instrument of seeing which the Course calls Christ’s vision. This way of seeing is in our minds because it is not of form. Christ’s vision looks past all form to the unity of Love that is God and His Son (His extension of Love). The Course is teaching us to shift our attention from using the ego’s way of seeing to using the vision of our true Self.

While we are experiencing the dream, the body’s eyes will continue to give us images within the illusion. We are not being asked to deny that we are seeing a world of form. But we are being asked to shift our attention from this false seeing to the true seeing of our Inward Vision. As we learn to trust and accept this Inward Vision, the images the ego shows us have diminished importance and affect us less and less. As we focus more on our Inward Vision, we experience greater peace, for the images of the world are less and less real to us.

The process of forgiveness, of bringing all our perceptions to the Holy Spirit with willingness to let Him help us see past them, is how we shift away from trusting the ego’s images and toward trusting the truth that Christ’s Vision shows us. Today is another opportunity to practice letting ourselves be taught to see the truth beyond all appearances.

Opening to Holy Spirit

Attempt to solve no problems but within the holy instant’s surety. For there the problem will be answered and resolved. (A Course in Miracles, T-27.IV.3:1-2)

With the Holy Spirit’s help, we are brought to another state of mind. The Holy Spirit has a completely different perspective. It helps us step outside the boxes of division we have made. In this world we tend to bring the past to the present.

The Holy Spirit remembers what everything is for and brings brings us into alignment with what is helpful for everyone concerned. The Holy Spirit brings us into a state of unity instead of separation and uses everything in the dream as a means to help us wake up from the dream.

Today we practice opening to Holy Spirit’s help, remembering that we do not know what anything means on our own.

Who Is My Companion?

You cannot walk the world apart from God, because you could not be without Him. He is what your life is. Where you are He is. There is one life. That life you share with Him. Nothing can be apart from Him and live.

“Who walks with me?” This question should be asked a thousand times a day, till certainty has ended doubting and established peace. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.156.2:4-9;8:1-2)

Today’s prayer:
Who is my companion? Let me remember I always walk with God. If I am not at peace, I have substituted an illusion for the Love of God. The sense of loss of love naturally brings fear. Let me remember once again, I walk with Love.

Seeing Past Appearances to Love

The way we wake up from the dream of separation is to be open to perceiving as the Holy Spirit perceives everyone. To do this we need to step back from how we have been seeing in the past. In the past we have been seeing through the eyes of separation (the ego) and now we are learning to open our minds to a different way of seeing.

As we are open, the Holy Spirit shows us the changeless Love That lies behind the images of differences. The Holy Spirit shows us the holiness in everyone, including ourselves. From this perspective we relax and feel the happiness and joy that come with remembering the eternal truth about us all. We remember we are safe, we are innocent, we are loved, we are Home.

We choose happiness today as we join with Holy Spirit in seeing Love and nothing else.

Accepting the Love We Are

We remind the world that it is free of all illusions every time we say:
God is but Love, and therefore so am I. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.V.10:7-8)

When we identify with the body as what we are, we believe we are something other than Love. Love is one and has no form. Individuality in the oneness of Love is impossible. So when we see someone as a threat or an opponent or endangered, we are forgetting that we are Love and nothing else. Remembering the truth that “God is but Love and therefore so am I” is the antidote that heals this mistaken belief.

Today we practice reminding ourselves of this frequently. If something disturbs our peace, we will remind ourselves, “God is but Love and therefore so am I.” If we feel or see guilt, or experience fear, we will remind ourselves of this again. The more we practice this the more we loosen our mistaken identification with a false idea of what we are. We clear the way to the experience of our safety and peace, our joy and the Love we are eternally. With this practice we move forward on our journey Home.
