Forgiveness Lets Our Light Shine

The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness.

How holy are you who have the power to bring peace to every mind! ²How blessed are you who can learn to recognize the means for letting this be done through you! ³What purpose could you have that would bring you greater happiness?

You are indeed the light of the world with such a function. ²The Son of God looks to you for his redemption. ³It is yours to give him, for it belongs to you. ⁴Accept no trivial purpose or meaningless desire in its place, or you will forget your function and leave the Son of God in hell. ⁵This is no idle request that is being asked of you. ⁶You are being asked to accept salvation that it may be yours to give.

⁴The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. ⁵I am the means God has appointed for the salvation of the world. (A Course in Miracles, W-63.1–2;3:4-5. See also ACIM Lesson 63 Insights.)

Forgiveness is the means to let our Light shine. The Light of Love is what we are, given us by our Creator to be forever united with Him.

But when we identify with the ego, our choice for specialness hides the Light behind veils of illusion. Because the Light we are is one with All in All, we block Its radiance with our belief in being separate. When we forgive our wish to be separate, we clear away the dark veil. The Light of Love we are shines forth to bring salvation to the world.
