Claiming Our Reality as Love

Appearances deceive, but can be changed. ²Reality is changeless. ³It does not deceive at all, and if you fail to see beyond appearances you are deceived. …⁶Reality is changeless. ⁷It is this that makes it real, and keeps it separate from all appearances. ⁸It must transcend all form to be itself. ⁹It cannot change.

The miracle attests salvation from appearances by showing they can change. ³Your brother has a changelessness in him beyond appearance and deception, both. ⁴It is obscured by changing views of him that you perceive as his reality.

What is temptation but a wish to make illusions real? …⁴Temptation, then, is nothing more than this; a prayer the miracle touch not some dreams, but keep their unreality obscure and give to them reality instead.

⁵There is no miracle you cannot have when you desire healing. ⁶But there is no miracle that can be given you unless you want it. ⁷Choose what you would heal, and He Who gives all miracles has not been given freedom to bestow His gifts upon God’s Son.

Because reality is changeless is a miracle already there to heal all things that change, and offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid of fear. (A Course in Miracles,T-30.VIII.1:1-3,6-9;2:2-4;3:1,4;4:5-7;5:1. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

Temptation is the ego’s wish for differences to divide us and set us apart so that we can each claim some semblance of special status we can call our own. Only illusions can seem to make this appear real.

Yet there is a changelessness in everyone that unites us with each other as our true Self, the Son of God. This is the Reality that is our Home, at one with each other in our Father’s Love. Today we claim our true Identity by choosing Love to guide our thoughts.
