This world will bind your feet and tie your hands and kill your body only if you think that it was made to crucify God’s Son. For even though it was a dream of death, you need not let it stand for this to you. Let this be changed, and [everything] in the world …must be changed as well. For [everything here] is defined as what you see it for.
How lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God’s Son! How free from fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! And what a joyous thing it is to dwell a little while in such a happy place! Nor can it be forgot, in such a world, it is a little while till timelessness comes quietly to take the place of time. (A Course in Miracles, T-29.VI.5-6. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
Every day and every moment we choose the purpose we give the world. We are always free to change our purpose for the world. If we choose to align with the ego thought system of separation, the purpose we give the world is to make loss and death appear real. But if we choose to align with the Holy Spirit, the purpose we give the world is to forgive all our mistaken beliefs and false images.
Each time we let go of a false belief we open the door to the flow of Love, which has been closed by judgment and denial. The eternal, changeless Love of God is ever present. Our practice now is to use the world for the purpose of healing through forgiveness of the dream that could never be true. This is how we make way for the changeless flow eternal Love. This is how we give the world a healing purpose.
