The holy Christ is born in me today.
Watch with me, angels, watch with me today. ²Let all God’s holy Thoughts surround me, and be still with me while Heaven’s Son is born. ³Let earthly sounds be quiet, and the sights to which I am accustomed disappear. ⁴Let Christ be welcomed where He is at home. ⁵And let Him hear the sounds He understands, and see but sights that show His Father’s Love. ⁶Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is born again in me today.
Your Son is welcome, Father. ²He has come to save me from the evil [loveless] self I made. ³He is the Self that You have given me. ⁴He is but what I really am in truth. ⁵He is the Son You love above all things. ⁶He is my Self as You created me. ⁷It is not Christ that can be crucified. ⁸Safe in Your Arms let me receive Your Son. (A Course in Miracles, W-303. See also ACIM Lesson 303 Insights.)
Everyone in the world wants to be safe. If we accept the ego as our identity, we will seek for safety through inappropriate means, guaranteed not to work. Our only source of safety is rejected by the ego. It does not want the oneness of God’s Love.
Today we are reminded that Love walks with us everywhere and always. Love’s changelessness is the safety we seek in truth. The certainty of God’s unlimited Love offers comfort, security, happiness and peace. We need not seek for God’s Love, for it is already given us. But we do need to seek out our self-made barriers that hide the eternal presence of Love.
There is no need to be afraid of uncovering these barriers, because the Holy Spirit is with us. His sole purpose is to help us forgive these mistaken barriers. He shows us they have no substance in truth. He is the truth in us that guides us to the full remembrance of the Love we are. With His help the barriers fade away and we rest in the comfort and happiness of the Love we are, at one with God.
