Awakening to the Certainty of Love

My only function is the one God gave me.

The idea for today reaffirms your commitment to salvation. ²It also reminds you that you have no function other than that. ³Both these thoughts are obviously necessary for a total commitment. ⁴Salvation cannot be the only purpose you hold while you still cherish others. ⁵The full acceptance of salvation as your only function necessarily entails two phases; the recognition of salvation as your function, and the relinquishment of all the other goals you have invented for yourself.

³This is the only way in which you can find peace of mind.

²Today’s idea offers you escape from all your perceived difficulties. ³It places the key to the door of peace, which you have closed upon yourself, in your own hands. ⁴It gives you the answer to all the searching you have done since time began. (A Course in Miracles, W-65.1;2:3;3:2-4. See also ACIM Lesson 65 Insights.)

In this dream of limitation, where we seem to dwell in a body, limited in time and space, our only function is to let go of the cause of this limiting dream. Only our belief that we are separate prevents us from knowing the freedom of being and extending the Love we are.

In our natural state, we dwell in perfect peace and share God’s joy of giving and receiving Love. Today we choose to be vigilant for Love. We do this by recognizing any disturbance to our peace of mind, any fear or any guilt, and asking the Holy Spirit to let it go.

He will show us the certainty of Love beyond the images that bring fear and guilt into our mind. As we let Him teach us that we are Love and nothing else, we fulfill our function. We release the world from all we thought it was. We awaken to our Home in God’s Love.
