Making Way for Love’s Light to Shine

Forgiveness paints a picture of a world where suffering is over, loss becomes impossible and anger makes no sense. Attack is gone, and madness has an end. What suffering is now conceiv­able? What loss can be sustained? The world becomes a place of joy, abundance, charity and endless giving. It is now so like to Heaven that it quickly is transformed into the light that it reflects. And so the journey which the Son of God began has ended in the light from which he came.

Father, we would return our minds to You. We have betrayed them, held them in a vise of bitterness, and frightened them with thoughts of violence and death. Now would we rest again in You, as You created us. (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.249. See also ACIM Lesson 249 Insights.)

The ego paints a picture of a world filled with suffering, violence and death. While we accept the ego as our identity, this is the picture we see. It seems very real to us. Fear and conflict are our constant companions. Yet this world we see is only a dream made by the ego thought system of separation to hide from the eternal oneness of God’s Love.

Forgiveness is the way to awaken from this frightening and loveless world. Throughout every day we are presented with opportunities to forgive and let the false images disappear. Each moment in which we feel anything but peace indicates that somewhere in our mind we are denying Love’s presence. We release this denial by asking the Holy Spirit to heal our fear-based thoughts.

We do not have to dig deeply to try to find a specific event or past experience to label as the “cause” of the disturbance to our peace. But we do have to recognize the disturbance and offer it to the Holy Spirit for His healing. He will respond with vision that shows us the truth of Love’s presence beyond the dream images. He will help us join with the Love beyond the dark forms and welcome Love’s Light into the world.

Each time we accept the Holy Spirit’s healing, the world is brightened a little more with Love’s Light. The more we practice, the more we experience the presence of peace, happiness and changeless Love.
