Accepting Love as Our Identity

Let not my mind deny the Thought of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.

I am entrusted with the gifts of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 178, W-pI.178. See also ACIM Lesson 178 Insights.)

God is only Love and so His Thoughts are only Love. God’s Son is His Thought, which extends His Love. God’s Son and our true Self are one and the same. To deny the Thought of God is to deny our Self and God’s gifts of peace and joy. The Thought of God, of Love, is one and cannot be divided.

When we choose to believe that separation is real, we are denying the Thought of God. We are denying Love. The body, the ego’s principal mechanism of separation, is not our identity. We are not a body. We are Love and nothing else. Identifying with a body denies God’s Love.

This is why the only meaningful purpose for the body is to use it to learn to see past the forms of the world. In our day to day life experience, we have opportunities to choose between our limited perception or to welcome Holy Spirit’s perception. When we welcome Holy Spirit’s perception, the body becomes the means for awakening. We learn to see with our true Mind’s eye. This is our purpose in every moment.

Holy Spirit, today we welcome Your vision. We take Your hand, willing to be guided in the way of Love.
