Accepting Our Completion in God

My holiness blesses the world.

This idea contains the first glimmerings of your true function in the world, or why you are here. ²Your purpose is to see the world through your own holiness. ³Thus are you and the world blessed together. ⁴No one loses; nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains through your holy vision. ⁵It signifies the end of sacrifice because it offers everyone his full due. ⁶And he is entitled to everything because it is his birthright as a Son of God.

⁵Yet is his wholeness restored to his awareness through your vision. ⁶Your holiness blesses him by asking nothing of him. ⁷Those who see themselves as whole make no demands.

Your holiness is the salvation of the world. ²It lets you teach the world that it is one with you, not by preaching to it, not by telling it anything, but merely by your quiet recognition that in your holiness are all things blessed along with you.

³It is essential to use the idea if anyone seems to cause an adverse reaction in you. ⁴Offer him the blessing of your holiness immediately, that you may learn to keep it in your own awareness. (A Course in Miracles, W-37.1;2:5–3:2;6:3-4. See also ACIM Lesson 37 Insights.)

All our pain, fear and guilt come from our denial of our completion in God. We believe we are alone and missing something. This sense of being incomplete drives us on a constant search to fill the void, while defending the little we believe we have of our own. All this stems from our belief that we are separate from our Creator.

But we can only dream that we are separate. We are forever united with the Source of holiness, which we share. Our function as God’s Creation is to share His holiness. As we let the Holy Spirit help us look past appearances in the world to see the holiness in our brothers, we remember our own holiness.

This practice can bring amazing results. Our pain diminishes. Fear is replaced by the embrace of Love. The darkness of guilt is dispelled by the Light of Love’s innocence. Sadness is replaced by joy. It is worth the practice.
