To be one is to be of one mind or will. When the Will of the Sonship and the Father are One, their perfect accord is Heaven.
Nothing can prevail against a Son of God who commends his spirit into the Hands of his Father. By doing this the mind awakens from its sleep and remembers its Creator. All sense of separation disappears.
The way to correct distortions is to withdraw your faith in them and invest it only in what is true. You cannot make untruth true. If you are willing to accept what is true in everything you perceive, you let it be true for you. Truth overcomes all error, and those who live in error and emptiness can never find lasting solace. If you perceive truly you are cancelling out misperceptions in yourself and in others simultaneously. Because you see them as they are, you offer them your acceptance of their truth so they can accept it for themselves. This is the healing that the miracle induces. (A Course in Miracles, T-3.II.4:5-5:3;6. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)
Believing we are disconnected from God’s Love causes an unsettled feeling, ranging from mild discomfort to rage or terror. This is because we are believing in a dream of a false identity that is disconnected from Love’s oneness. Without the oneness of Love, it feels like we are living in a world with myriad potential opposing forces from which we must protect ourselves. There is nothing stable in this world that we can trust.
Thankfully there is a world of true perception we can count on to be changeless, stable and eternal. True perception comes from accepting the Love we are, our true Self, united as God’s one Son. This oneness is eternal and changeless. This world’s changelessness brings peace with it, for we can trust the reality of Love’s innocence. Those who know they are only Love know they are innocent. From this point of certainty we see truly. We see the innocence in our brothers. Where innocence is accepted without exception, we know we are safe and are at peace. We remember Heaven.
Today we choose the Holy Spirit in our mind, Who represents our true Self, to guide our perceptions, for we would see with the Light of Love.
