Anger must come from judgment. Judgment is the weapon I would use against myself, to keep the miracle away from me.
Father, I want what goes against my will, and do not want what is my will to have. ²Straighten my mind, my Father. ³It is sick. ⁴But You have offered freedom, and I choose to claim Your gift today. ⁵And so I give all judgment to the One You gave to me to judge for me. ⁶He sees what I behold, and yet He knows the truth. ⁷He looks on pain, and yet He understands it is not real, and in His understanding it is healed. ⁸He gives the miracles my dreams would hide from my awareness. ⁹Let Him judge today. ¹⁰I do not know my will, but He is sure it is Your Own. ¹¹And He will speak for me, and call Your miracles to come to me.
Listen today. ²Be very still, and hear the gentle Voice for God assuring you that He has judged you as the Son He loves. (A Course in Miracles, W-347.1:1–2:2. See also ACIM Lesson 347 Insights.)
Judgment keeps us bound to the dream of fear and guilt. Our judgments are based on false images which portray a world of separation. These judgments seem justified because we perceive through the body, a false identity made to see only confirmation that separation is real.
We need help from outside this closed thought system. God has given us the Holy Spirit as the bridge to lead us out of our misperceptions. He understands what we perceive but knows they are not true. He offers His true perception to replace our errors. Our judgments are based on illusion. This is why we must yield all our judgments to Him.
In every moment we make a choice between reinforcing our private world of fear and guilt or accepting freedom from it by handing over our judgments to the Holy Spirit. He judges on behalf of our Creator, seeing us solely as God’s one Son, forever one in Love.
We dedicate today to choosing the path to freedom by letting the Holy Spirit judge all things on our behalf.
