How to Welcome God’s Love

The face of Christ has to be seen before the memory of God can return. The reason is obvious. Seeing the face of Christ involves perception. No one can look on knowledge. But the face of Christ is the great symbol of forgiveness. It is salvation. It is the symbol of the real world. Whoever looks on this no longer sees the world. He is as near to Heaven as is possible outside the gate. Yet from this gate it is no more than just a step inside. It is the final step. And this we leave to God.

How lovely does the world become in just that single instant when you see the truth about yourself reflected there. Now you are sinless and behold your sinlessness. Now you are holy and perceive it so. And now the mind returns to its Creator; the joining of the Father and the Son, the Unity of unities that stands behind all joining but beyond them all. God is not seen but only understood. His Son is not attacked but recognized. (A Course in Miracles, C-3.4;8)

The truth of What we are is the oneness of Love. While we identify with the body we cannot see the Love we are, for Love is beyond perception. The intermediary step between the world of perception and the knowledge of Love’s oneness is symbolized by the face of Christ. It symbolizes the oneness and sinlessness of Love for a mind limited to perceptions.

To see the face of Christ in a brother is to recognize his innocence and Love. This recognition reflects back on us, showing us our innocence and Love. When we reach the point of seeing the face of Christ, Love’s innocence, in all things, we stand at the gate of Heaven. We are wholeheartedly ready to accept that only Love is real. Now we welcome God’s Love with no reservation and accept His embrace which brings us back to the Heaven that is our Home.
