Do not choose amiss, or you will think that it is you who are creator in [God’s] place, and He is then no longer Cause but only an effect. Now healing is impossible, for He is blamed for your deception and your guilt. He Who is Love becomes the source of fear, for only fear can now be justified. Vengeance is His. His great destroyer, death. And sickness, suffering and grievous loss become the lot of everyone on earth, which He abandoned to the devil’s care, swearing He will deliver it no more.
Come unto Me, My children, once again, without such twisted thoughts upon your hearts. You still are holy with the Holiness which fathered you in perfect sinlessness, and still surrounds you with the Arms of peace. Dream now of healing. Then arise and lay all dreaming down forever. You are he your Father loves, who never left his home, nor wandered in a savage world with feet that bleed, and with a heavy heart made hard against the love that is the truth in you. Give all your dreams to Christ and let Him be your Guide to healing, leading you in prayer beyond the sorry reaches of the world. (A Course in Miracles, S-3.IV.5:3-6:6)
The belief that God condemns, punishes or makes bodies that die is a projection of the ego. God’s Love is eternal and does not condemn. His Will for us is perfect happiness as we remain eternally in His arms of Love. This is our true Home.
While we identify with the ego, we seem to be in opposition to God’s Will. The ego tells us that to accept His Will is a sacrifice. Yet the truth is that by identifying with the ego we sacrifice eternal Love, peace that cannot be disturbed and indescribable joy. We can reclaim this inheritance by disidentifying with the ego. Forgiveness is the means through which we let go of our mistaken beliefs and learn to see Love’s innocence everywhere, where It has always been, unchanged and unchangeable.
Choose peace today and welcome the Voice for God, Whose guidance will lead us to the freedom of limitless Love.
