Do not be afraid to look within. The ego tells you all is black with guilt within you, and bids you not to look. Instead, it bids you look upon your brothers, and see the guilt in them. Yet this you cannot do without remaining blind. For those who see their brothers in the dark, and guilty in the dark in which they shroud them, are too afraid to look upon the light within. Within you is not what you believe is there, and what you put your faith in. Within you is the holy sign of perfect faith your Father has in you. He does not value you as you do. He knows Himself, and knows the truth in you. He knows there is no difference, for He knows not of differences. Can you see guilt where God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny His knowledge, but you cannot change it. Look, then, upon the light He placed within you, and learn that what you feared was there has been replaced with love. (A Course in Miracles, T-13.IX.8. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
Our Father knows us only as He created us. He sees no darkness in what he created. Our Father is pure Love and we are extensions of that pure Love.
Today our practice is to see ourselves as an extension of the pure Love of our Father. This practice is merely accepting of What we are eternally and What every brother is. Today we focus on accepting the truth and forgiving, or letting go of illusions that there could be anything different than the purity of God’s Love. God is pure Love, and therefore so is everyone. Today we accept the freedom and joy that come with merely accepting the Truth.
