I am one Self, united with my Creator.
Today’s idea accurately describes you as God created you. ²You are one within yourself, and one with Him. ³Yours is the unity of all creation. ⁴Your perfect unity makes change in you impossible. ⁵You do not accept this, and you fail to realize it must be so, only because you believe that you have changed yourself already.
You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on God’s creation; weak, vicious, ugly and sinful, miserable and beset with pain. ²Such is your version of yourself; a self divided into many warring parts, separate from God, and tenuously held together by its erratic and capricious maker, to which you pray. ³It does not hear your prayers, for it is deaf. ⁴It does not see the oneness in you, for it is blind. ⁵It does not understand you are the Son of God, for it is senseless and understands nothing.
You have seen the extent of your lack of mental discipline, and of your need for mind training. ⁵It is necessary that you be aware of this, for it is indeed a hindrance to your advance.
…unless you are reminded of your purpose frequently, you tend to forget about it for long periods of time. ³…you have not yet formed the habit of using the idea as an automatic response to temptation.
…with all the certainty that you can give [affirm]:
²I am one Self, united with my Creator, at one with every aspect of creation, and limitless in power and in peace. (A Course in Miracles, W-95.1–2;4:4-5;5:2-3;11:1-2. See also ACIM Lesson 95 Insights.)
If we are not supremely happy, we are believing we are a false image of ourself. If we are not at peace, it is because we believe that we can change or be changed, harm or be harmed. In truth we are as unchangeable as God.
We are the same Love, unlimited and eternal. Our true Self sees Love in the world and offers Love where there is a belief in lack of Love. This is our purpose, shared with our Creator. We are extensions of His Love, and being one with Him, we extend that Love.
Today we would remember to be messengers of Love.
