Letting the Light Within Enlighten Our World

The Holy Spirit is described as the remaining Communication Link between God and His separated Sons. ²In order to fulfill this special function the Holy Spirit has assumed a dual function. ³He knows because He is part of God; He perceives because He was sent to save humanity. ⁴He is the great correction principle; the bringer of true perception, the inherent power of the vision of Christ. ⁵He is the light in which the forgiven world is perceived; in which the face of Christ alone is seen. ⁶He never forgets the Creator or His creation. ⁷He never forgets the Son of God. ⁸He never forgets you. ⁹And He brings the Love of your Father to you in an eternal shining that will never be obliterated because God has put it there.

The Holy Spirit abides in the part of your mind that is part of the Christ Mind. ²He represents your Self and your Creator, Who are One. ³He speaks for God and also for you, being joined with Both. ⁴And therefore it is He Who proves Them One. ⁵He seems to be a Voice, for in that form He speaks God’s Word to you. ⁶He seems to be a Guide through a far country, for you need that form of help. ⁷He seems to be whatever meets the needs you think you have. ⁸But He is not deceived when you perceive your self entrapped in needs you do not have. ⁹It is from these He would deliver you. ¹⁰It is from these that He would make you safe. (A Course in Miracles, C-6.3–4)

God has placed in us, His Son, the Light of His eternal Love. His Light can never be extinguished because It is all of Reality. In every moment this Light is available to us to enlighten our world with true perception.

When we engage in the ego thought system of separation, we hide from this Light. By hiding from the Light, we perceive the images that represent our wish for specialness and differences. They are not real. But in any moment we can call upon the Light to shine in our mind and reveal true perception.

We do this by pausing and letting ourselves sink into the quiet peace within. In that peace the presence of changeless Love is revealed. That Light shows us that appearances in the world have no effect on our true Self. We are still God’s Son as He created us. The Light in us shines equally on our brothers. In this Light we see our unity with all. We are safe in God’s Love, along with every brother. And we give thanks.
