I am forever an Effect of God.
Father, I was created in Your Mind, a holy Thought that never left its home. ²I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. ³As You created me I have remained. ⁴Where You established me I still abide. ⁵And all Your attributes abide in me, because it is Your Will to have a Son so like his Cause that Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. ⁶Let me know that I am an Effect of God, and so I have the power to create like You. ⁷And as it is in Heaven, so on earth. ⁸Your plan I follow here, and at the end I know that You will gather Your effects into the tranquil Heaven of Your Love, where earth will vanish, and all separate thoughts unite in glory as the Son of God.
Let us today behold earth disappear, at first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into God’s holy Will. (A Course in Miracles, W-326. See also ACIM Lesson 326 Insights.)
The ego tells us that it is arrogant to claim that all God’s attributes are ours and that we can create like Him. Yet, in Reality, it is arrogant to deny God’s Will. Today we ask the Holy Spirit to help us let go of our mistaken attempts to be separate from all things. Specialness offers nothing of value, for it is nothing more than a dream.
Today we choose to let go of this dream and welcome the Reality that we remain forever united with our Creator. As we learn this lesson, we become His messengers. As we accept the Love we are, we demonstrate to our brothers the Love they are. We acknowledge our unity in Love, joined in the Light of Heaven, at Home in the Heart of God.
