Remember that in every attack [perception of separation] you call upon your own weakness, while each time you forgive [recognize oneness] you call upon the strength of Christ in you. Do you not then begin to understand what forgiveness will do for you? It will remove all sense of weakness, strain and fatigue from your mind. It will take away all fear and guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power God gave His Son to your awareness. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.62.3. See also ACIM Lesson 62 Insights.)
It is helpful to be reminded that when we see a brother as separate from us, that we are calling upon our own weakness. It is also helpful to truly recognize the strength and power that come with being willing to see past separation to the truth of our oneness in the Love of God.
As we open to a better way through the Holy Spirit in our mind, we are brought to the Light of God in us. We are brought to our true strength and power — the eternal power of God’s Love. As we practice this consistently, we begin to experience that Love is the answer to every situation we encounter in the dream world of separation. All this comes as we accept the power of forgiveness and practice it consistently in our daily lives.
