How to See the Face of Christ in Our Brothers

The Holy Spirit reaches from the Christ in you to all your dreams, and bids them come to Him, to be translated into truth. ²He will exchange them for the final dream which God appointed as the end of dreams. ³For when forgiveness rests upon the world and peace has come to every Son of God, what could there be to keep things separate, for what remains to see except Christ’s face?

And how long will this holy face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time for learning now is over, and the goal of the Atonement has been reached at last? ²So therefore let us seek to find Christ’s face and look on nothing else. ³As we behold His glory, will we know we have no need of learning or perception or of time, or anything except the holy Self, the Christ Whom God created as His Son. (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.6.4–5)

Christ is God’s Son, the one Self we all share. Christ is the Home of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the bridge between our dream of separation and lack of love, and the eternal, changeless Love of God.

The Holy Spirit is called the Comforter because He leads us out of dreams of fear and guilt. He leads us back to the peace and joy of our true Self. All that stands between our awareness of peace and happiness and the dream is our mistaken belief in a separate identity. When we are willing to receive the Holy Spirit’s loving guidance, we receive help to forgive the wish for specialness.

Today we call to our Comforter, welcoming His help to free ourselves from fear and guilt and remember we are God’s Son, the Christ. With the Holy Spirit’s help we will see the face of Christ in our brothers, and know that we are one.
