Accepting Love as Our Identity

Love created me like itself.

²I am in the likeness of my Creator. ³I cannot suffer, I cannot experience loss and I cannot die. ⁴I am not a body. ⁵I would recognize my reality today. ⁶I will worship no idols, nor raise my own self-concept to replace my Self. ⁷I am in the likeness of my Creator. ⁸Love created me like itself.

‘You might find these specific forms helpful in applying the idea:

²Let me not see an illusion of myself in this.
³As I look on this, let me remember my Creator.
⁴My Creator did not create this as I see it. (A Course in Miracles, W-84.1:1–2:4. See also ACIM Lesson 84 Insights.)

We are all innately loving. But if we identify with a separate image that we believe is our self, the Love we are is denied. This image of a separate self needs constant defense because it is not real. So it seems that the world is a place of conflict, lack, loss and attack.

To remember that we were created as changeless Love, by Love, we need to let go of the separate self image as our identity. Forgiveness is the way to remember we are Love and nothing else. We need to remind ourselves frequently that we are not a body and what the body seems to show us cannot be real. This is the first step. It needs to be followed by being willing to let Christ’s vision show us what is real.

This process of letting go of illusion and accepting the reality of Love as our Identity is our journey Home.
