Awaken to the World of Love

³Our emphasis is not on giving up the world, but on exchanging it for what is far more satisfying, filled with joy, and capable of offering you peace.

Is it a loss to find a world instead where losing is impossible; where love endures forever, hate cannot exist and vengeance has no meaning? ²Is it loss to find all things you really want, and know they have no ending and they will remain exactly as you want them throughout time?

⁴Value …not [the little things the world sets forth], and they will disappear. ⁵Esteem them, and they will seem real to you.

Such is the choice. ²What loss can be for you in choosing not to value nothingness? ³This world holds nothing that you really want, but what you choose instead you want indeed! ⁴Let it be given you today. ⁵It waits but for your choosing it, to take the place of all the things you seek but do not want.

³Beyond this world there is a world I want. ⁴I choose to see that world instead of this, for here is nothing that I really want. (A Course in Miracles, W-129.1:3;3:1-2;5:4–6:5;7:3-4. See also ACIM Lesson 129 Insights.)

We live in a world of Love. It was created for us by our Creator as our Home, which He holds forever in His embrace.  He wants us to remember that He loves His Son eternally.

This Home we can claim right now. It will never be withdrawn nor fade in the brilliance Its Light. The ego has no interest in this Home. In fact, it denies It and tells us It is not real. When we follow the ego, we believe the body is real and “lives” in a world of other bodies amid myriad forms that it tells us we need.

But it’s all make believe, made to hide our real Home. Today we choose instead to accept the Love that God has given us and awaken to the world of Love.
