My sight goes forth to look upon Christ’s face.
I ask Your blessing on my sight today. ²It is the means which You have chosen to become the way to show me my mistakes, and look beyond them. ³It is given me to find a new perception through the Guide You gave to me, and through His lessons to surpass perception and return to truth. ⁴I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I made. ⁵Today I choose to see a world forgiven, in which everyone shows me the face of Christ, and teaches me that what I look upon belongs to me; that nothing is, except Your holy Son.
Today our sight is blessed indeed. ²We share one vision, as we look upon the face of Him Whose Self is ours. ³We are one because of Him Who is the Son of God; of Him Who is our own Identity. (A Course in Miracles, W-269. See also ACIM Lesson 269 Insights.)
Christ’s face is a symbol of forgiveness. To see the face of Christ in anyone is to see him forgiven of our illusions of separation. This vision sees only the innocence of God’s Love. Love does not need forgiveness.
But in this world, we need the illusion of forgiveness to let go of the illusions that make our brother appear different and separate. When we except nothing from our forgiveness, it is no longer needed. We have accepted the truth that only Love is real.
This is our only purpose in the world: To let go of all beliefs in separation and awaken to the eternal, changeless Love in which we live.
