Accepting Love’s Oneness

Grace is acceptance of the Love of God within a world of seeming hate and fear. ²By grace alone the hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to everything the world contains, that those whose minds are lighted by the gift of grace can not believe the world of fear is real.

Oneness is simply the idea God is. ²And in His Being, He encompasses all things. ³No mind holds anything but Him. ⁴We say “God is,” and then we cease to speak, for in that knowledge words are meaningless. ⁵There are no lips to speak them, and no part of mind sufficiently distinct to feel that it is now aware of something not itself. ⁶It has united with its Source. ⁷And like its Source Itself, it merely is.

We cannot speak nor write nor even think of this at all. ²It comes to every mind when total recognition that its will is God’s has been completely given and received completely. ³It returns the mind into the endless present, where the past and future cannot be conceived. ⁴It lies beyond salvation; past all thought of time, forgiveness and the holy face of Christ. ⁵The Son of God has merely disappeared into his Father, as his Father has in him. ⁶The world has never been at all. ⁷Eternity remains a constant state. (A Course in Miracles, W-169.2;5-6. See also ACIM Lesson 169 Insights.)

The world we see is a reflection of our belief that separation is real. When this belief is wholly released through forgiveness, the world will simply cease to seem to exist. Our role in the salvation of the world is to accept the Holy Spirit’s help to heal our mistaken beliefs.

Each time we accept the Holy Spirit’s help to heal a misperception, we open our mind to the recognition of our oneness with God. This seems to take many steps only because of our resistance. We made the choice to treasure specialness, which brought the perception of the world into our split mind.

When we accept the Holy Spirit’s help we release our attachment to specialness. We have disguised the wish for specialness in myriad forms. Thus it seems forgiveness must be repeated many times. This is true until we recognize that every belief in form is the same mistake. With this generalization we take giant steps to awareness of oneness through forgiveness.

We are on a journey of awakening that goes nowhere, but leads to awakening to our Home in Love we never left in truth. Today we are willing to forgive our perceptions and remember our oneness in God’s Love.
