Let Christ’s Vision Be Our Guide

Fear is a stranger to the ways of love. ²Identify with fear, and you will be a stranger to yourself. ³And thus you are unknown to you. ⁴What is your Self remains an alien to the part of you which thinks that it is real, but different from yourself. ⁵Who could be sane in such a circumstance? ⁶Who but a madman could believe he is what he is not, and judge against himself?

⁵There is no home can shelter [both] love and fear. ⁶They cannot coexist. ⁷If you are real, then fear must be illusion. ⁸And if fear is real, then you do not exist at all.

Today we offer thanks that Christ has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. ²His vision sees no strangers, but beholds His Own and joyously unites with them. ³They see Him as a stranger, for they do not recognize themselves. ⁴Yet as they give Him welcome, they remember. ⁵And He leads them gently home again, where they belong.

³[Christ] has not forgotten you. ⁴But you will not remember Him until you look on all as He does. ⁵Who denies his brother is denying Him, and thus refusing to accept the gift of sight by which his Self is clearly recognized, his home remembered and salvation come. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 160, W-160.1;4:5-8;9;10:3-5. See also ACIM Lesson 160 Insights.)

We can see our brother as one with us in the Love of God. But not with the body’s eyes, which were made by the ego thought of separation to see only the fear that denies the oneness of Love.

We welcome Christ’s vision by being willing to set aside our judgments and ask His help to see past the separate images made by the ego. Christ sees only Love, for That is What He is. His vision will show us the Reality of Love everywhere. He looks upon the appearance of fear as nothing more than a call for Love. As we let His vision guide us, every moment is an opportunity to extend Love or answer calls for Love with Love.

As we accept this vision, we learn to recognize the Love we are. We remember our Home is in the Love of God. It can be found nowhere else, for only Love is real. Today we choose the guidance of Christ’s vision to lead us to the joy and peace of God.
