Becoming Aware of Our Home in Heaven

God is my life. I have no life but His.

I was mistaken when I thought I lived apart from God, a separate entity that moved in isolation, unattached, and housed within a body. ²Now I know my life is God’s, I have no other home, and I do not exist apart from Him. ³He has no Thoughts that are not part of me, and I have none but those which are of Him.

Our Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. ²For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. ³We would look upon our sinlessness, for guilt proclaims that we are not Your Son. ⁴And we would not forget You longer. ⁵We are lonely here, and long for Heaven, where we are at home. ⁶Today we would return. ⁷Our Name is Yours, and we acknowledge that we are Your Son. (A Course in Miracles, W-223. See also ACIM Lesson 223 Insights.)

The dream we seem to live in is not real. Every dream is characteristically unaware of anything outside the dream. Anything beyond the dream is unknown and we are naturally afraid of it. This lesson is helping us to consider that there is something beyond our awareness in the dream that has greater than anything we can conceive of within the dream.

The Course is teaching us that there is nothing of value in the dream of space, time and separate bodies. This idea alone would be frightening. But we are being shown that beyond this dream world is everything we really want.

Acceptance of it will reward us with deep peace, unlimited joy and eternal extension of Love’s oneness. As we learn to accept the one Life with share with God, the dream is dispelled and we become aware of our Home in Heaven.
