Who can be born again in Christ but him who has forgiven everyone he sees or thinks of or imagines?
Therefore, hold no one prisoner. Release instead of bind, for thus are you made free. The way is simple. Every time you feel a stab of anger, realize you hold a sword above your head. And it will fall or be averted as you choose to be condemned or free. Thus does each one who seems to tempt you to be angry represent your savior from the prison house of death. And so you owe him thanks instead of pain.
Forgive him now his sins, and you will see that you are one with him. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 192, W-pI.192.8:1;9:1-7;10:9). See also ACIM Lesson 192 Insights.
Today we practice offering forgiveness to everyone we meet or even think of. Today we watch our judgments and hand them over to the Holy Spirit for our thoughts to be transformed. Today we let the Holy Spirit free us from the bondage of our belief in separation from God and our brother.
Forgiveness returns us to the awareness of God’s oneness. And for this we give thanks.
