Freeing Ourselves from Fear

Fear binds the world. Forgiveness sets it free.

The ego makes illusions. Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away. Truth never makes attack. It merely is. And by its presence is the mind recalled from fantasies, awaking to the real. Forgiveness bids [truth] enter in, and take its rightful place within the mind. Without forgiveness is the mind in chains, believing in its own futility. Yet with forgiveness does the light shine through the dream of darkness, offering it hope, and giving it the means to realize the freedom that is its inheritance.

We would not bind the world again today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the means to set it free. Father, we would release it now. For as we offer freedom, it is given us. And we would not remain as prisoners, while You are holding freedom out to us. (, A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 332,W-pII.332. See also ACIM Lesson 332 Insights.)

In every moment we have the means to free ourselves from fear. We need only let the Holy Spirit help us remember the truth that we remain changeless Love as Love created us. Fear always signals that we are believing in a false idea of what we are. We are not a body, weak and vulnerable, capable of harming or being harmed.

Today we choose to open our minds to the Holy Spirit’s vision to correct our misperceptions, our judgments, that we may free the world and ourselves from fear. His vision will show us the truth of our being as God’s one Son, at Home in Heaven.
