How to Accept God’s Gifts as Our Own

I am as God created me.

This single thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. …⁴These words are sacred, for they are the words God gave in answer to the world you made.

Here is the Word by which the Son became his Father’s happiness, His Love and His completion. ²Here creation is proclaimed, and honored as it is. ³There is no dream these words will not dispel; no thought of sin and no illusion which the dream contains that will not fade away before their might.

Holy indeed is he who makes these words his own; arising with them in his mind, recalling them throughout the day, at night bringing them with him as he goes to sleep. ²His dreams are happy and his rest secure, his safety certain and his body healed, because he sleeps and wakens with the truth before him always. (A Course in Miracles, W-162.1:1,4;2:1-3;3:1-2. See also ACIM Lesson 162 Insights.)

We are being asked to change our mind about what we believe is our identity. We have been told that God did not create the body. Reminding ourselves that we are as God created us is accepting the reality of our Self, which remains united with our Creator.

God is our Home. We dwell in His peace and His Love. We share His joy. The more we hold the thought that we are as God created us, the dream of separate bodies with separate minds in the world fades. We all seek for love and happiness. This thought has the power to restore perfect peace, happiness and Love to our mind.

The practice of affirming, “I am as God created me” to ourselves accepts God’s gifts as our own.
