Accepting the Holy Instant

In the holy instant, you will see the smile of Heaven shining on both you and your brother. …Your perception was healed in the holy instant Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen, and raise your eyes in faith to what you now can see. The barriers to Heaven will disappear before your holy sight, for you who were sightless have been given vision, and you can see. Look not for what has been removed, but for the glory that has been restored for you to see. (A Course in Miracles T-19.III.10:1,4-7 italics added)

Our practice for today is to reinforce mind healing by accepting the holy instant throughout the day. The holy instant removes the barriers to Love which came from the ego’s thought system. Willingness to follow Holy Spirit’s gentle correction all through the day is all that is truly important. Welcoming Holy Spirit’s inspiration consistently through the day is following His plan.


In the holy instant, perception of conflict disappears. It is replaced by the calm certainty of changeless Love. In this certainty, true perception shows us this Love everywhere we look. With the practice of letting all our seeing be guided by the Voice for truth in our minds throughout the day leads us to profound happiness and deep peace. This is how we extend the holy instant until it replaces all the old perceptions of separation.
