Accepting Happiness

The world’s salvation awaits your forgiveness, because through it does the Son of God escape from all illusions, and thus from all temptation. The Son of God is you.

Only by fulfilling the function given you by God will you be happy. That is because your function is to be happy by using the means by which happiness becomes inevitable. There is no other way. Therefore, every time you choose whether or not to fulfill your function [of forgiveness], you are really choosing whether or not to be happy.

Today, then, let us practice with these thoughts:

Let me not forget my function.
Let me not try to substitute mine for God’s.
Let me forgive and be happy. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 64, W-pI.64.3:3-4:4;6:1-4. See also ACIM Lesson 64 Insights.)

In every moment we choose between judgment or forgiveness. It is the choice between depression or happiness, guilt or innocence, fear or Love, chaos or peace.

As we practice bringing all our decisions to the Holy Spirit in our mind with willingness to follow His guidance, we are choosing to be free. We are choosing to be happy. We are choosing the salvation of the Son of God, our one Self.

Today we have the opportunity to practice fulfilling the function given us by God through which we accept His joy, His peace, His Love as our own.
