Helping Our Awakening to Our True Self

Why would you not be overjoyed to be assured that all the evil that you think you did was never done, that all your sins are nothing, that you are as pure and holy as you were created, and that light and joy and peace abide in you? ²Your image of yourself cannot withstand the Will of God. ³You think that this is death, but it is life. ⁴You think you are destroyed, but you are saved.

The self you made is not the Son of God. ²Therefore, this self does not exist at all. ³And anything it seems to do and think means nothing. ⁴It is neither bad nor good. ⁵It is unreal, and nothing more than that.

Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. ²Over and over this must be repeated, until it is accepted. ³It is true. ⁴Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. ⁵Nothing can touch it, or change what God created as eternal. ⁶The self you made, evil and full of sin, is meaningless. ⁷Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God, and light and joy and peace abide in you.

²Should you be tempted to become angry with someone, tell him silently:

³Light and joy and peace abide in you.
⁴Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. (A Course in Miracles, W-93.4:1–5:5;6;11:2-4. See also ACIM Lesson 93 Insights.)

There is no real cause for guilt. Only a false image we have made of ourself can seem to do harm. As we see ourself, we see our brothers. If we believe we can do harm, we believe our brothers can do harm. This is the ego’s dream we seem to live in.

Today we are called to change our mind about what we are. We are not the self that seems to harm or be harmed. In truth, Light, joy and peace abide in us. This is our natural state, which we experience when we forgive the false self-image we have made.

With today’s affirmation, we remind ourselves of the attributes of our true Self. In truth, Light, joy and peace can never leave us. As we affirm this for ourselves and for others, we facilitate our journey of awakening to the Self God created one with Him.
