Salvation of the world depends on me.”
The means are given us by which [our function] will be perfectly accomplished. All that we are asked to do is to accept our part in genuine humility, and not deny with self-deceiving arrogance that we are worthy. What is given us to do, we have the strength to do.
All false humility we lay aside today, that we may listen to God’s Voice reveal to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the function He will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, our wisdom and our holiness. And if He deems us worthy, so we are. It is but arrogance that judges otherwise. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 186, W-pI.186.2:4-6;4. See also ACIM Lesson 186 Insights.)
The ego teaches that our minds are powerless. The Holy Spirit teaches that our minds share all of God’s power. There is no opposing power. When we accept the ego’s lessons in limitation, we are denying our true Will, the Will we share with God. The denial leads to a dream world of limitation where it appears we are unworthy and impotent to save the world.
By choosing to listen to God’s Voice, we learn that the world cannot keep us from the peace, happiness and Love that is God’s Will for us. God has deemed us worthy and he has not changed His mind about His creations. Today we choose to do our part for the salvation of the world by listening to His Voice.
