Creation leans across the bars of time to lift the heavy burden from the world. Lift up your hearts to greet its advent. See the shadows fade away in gentleness; the thorns fall softly from the bleeding brow of him who is the holy Son of God. How lovely are you, child of Holiness! How like to Me! How lovingly I hold you in My Heart and in My Arms. How dear is every gift to Me that you have made, who healed My Son and took him from the cross. Arise and let My thanks be given you. And with My gratitude will come the gift first of forgiveness, then eternal peace.
So now return your holy voice to Me. The song of prayer is silent without you. The universe is waiting your release because it is its own. Be kind to it and to yourself, and then be kind to Me. I ask but this; that you be comforted and live no more in terror and in pain. Do not abandon Love. Remember this; whatever you may think about yourself, whatever you may think about the world, your Father needs you and will call to you until you come to Him in peace at last. (A Course in Miracles, S-3.IV.9-10)
Together we are God’s Son. We crucify His Son when we choose to identify with the ego, which is the denial of our unbreakable unity with God. This denial blocks our awareness of His gifts of eternal Love, joy and peace. This is the cross we bear by our choice to believe we are separated from God.
This need not be. We can choose once again to accept the truth of our eternal unity with Love, where peace abides and joy is limitless. These are the gifts that are God’s Will for us. Our choice to accept the help of the Holy Spirit to undo our mistaken choices takes us down off the cross and brings peace to our holy mind.
Today we practice accepting Holy Spirit’s help to reinterpret all our perceptions in the Light of Love. With His help, we bring healing to the world. We become Love’s messengers as we accept Love for ourselves and share It. We join in the song of Love and remember our Home in Love’s reality.
