I feel the Love of God within me now.
The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is
everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His
Son. The Love of God within me sets me free.I choose the joy of God instead of pain.
Pain is my own idea. It is not a Thought of God, but one I
thought apart from Him and from His Will. His Will is joy,
and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I choose, instead
of what I made.I have a function God would have me fill.
I seek the function that would set me free from all the vain
illusions of the world. Only the function God has given me
can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I
accept as mine. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 209, W-pI.209.1:1-5;210.1:1-5;212.1:1-4. See also ACIM Lesson 209 Insights.)
When we look at events and behavior of people in the world, it doesn’t seem that there is much love to be seen. We see a lot more fear, anger, guilt, loss, chaos and lack of Love. This is because the body’s eyes can only see the images the ego made to hide the eternal Presence of Love.
We have a function given us by our Creator to see past the false images to the reality of Love. The ego cannot show us this. Our job is to turn away from the ego to the Voice for God within, with willingness to be guided to see truly. As we do this, we bring healing to our brothers and the world. Simultaneously we bring healing to ourselves, for pain is not a part of Love. When we accept the Love we are, there can be no pain, no loss, no guilt, nothing to fear.
Today we would accept the function we have been given by our Source.
