Choosing to Listen and Learn

As long as you believe that guilt is justified in any way, in anyone, whatever he may do, you will not look within, where you would always find Atonement. ²The end of guilt will never come as long as you believe there is a reason for it. ³For you must learn that guilt is always totally insane, and has no reason. ⁴The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. ⁵If guilt were real, Atonement would not be. ⁶The purpose of Atonement is to dispel illusions, not to establish them as real and then forgive them.

The Holy Spirit does not keep illusions in your mind to frighten you, and show them to you fearfully to demonstrate what He has saved you from. ²What He has saved you from is gone. ³Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. ⁴The Holy Spirit does what God would have Him do, and has always done so. ⁵He has seen separation, but knows of union. ⁶He teaches healing, but He also knows of creation. ⁷He would have you see and teach as He does, and through Him. ⁸Yet what He knows you do not know, though it is yours. (A Course in Miracles, T-13.X.6–7. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.

It is valuable to remember that everything we perceive in the outer world is a projection of what we believe about our self. This means that our perceptions can be an effective teaching tool for the Holy Spirit. If we are willing to accept His teaching, we will learn to distinguish between illusions based on mistaken beliefs and the underlying presence of Love, the only Reality.

Every moment we are in the Holy Spirit’s classroom. Are we willing to listen to the Teacher Whose only purpose is to bring us Home to the awareness that we are united in God’s Love? Today we choose to listen and learn, for we want to be happy. We want to remember the Truth of our eternal unity with our Creator. We want to awaken from the dream of separation and know we are eternally at Home in the Heaven of God’s Love.
