Each day, each hour and minute, even each second, you are deciding between the crucifixion and the resurrection; between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the choice for guiltlessness. The power of decision is all that is yours. What you can decide between is fixed, because there are no alternatives except truth and illusion. And there is no overlap between them, because they are opposites which cannot be reconciled and cannot both be true. You are guilty or guiltless, bound or free, unhappy or happy.
The joy of learning that darkness has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches, and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy to teach it, as it will be yours.
Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you teach yourself that what is not of God has power over you. The causeless cannot be. Do not attest to it, and do not foster belief in it in any mind. Remember always that mind is one, and cause is one. You will learn communication with this oneness only when you learn to deny the causeless, and accept the Cause of God as yours.” (A Course in Miracles, T-14.III.4;6:6-7;8:2-6. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
Because only Love is real, Love is the only Cause. Love can only create like Itself so only Love is extended. The cause of all our pain and suffering is the belief that we are a separate image, disconnected from the Source of all that is Real. This false image cannot be real and so it has no real effect. Only our belief in it seems to give it existence. Withdraw our belief and it will disappear into the nothingness from which it came.
To find our way out of this dark and painful belief, we need help from the Teacher Who does not believe this false idea. In every moment the Holy Spirit offers us the happy lesson that we are not a body. We are guiltless. We are free from self-imposed limitation. We are still God’s Son as He created us. It is a happy lesson indeed.
Today we choose to walk with Holy Spirit and learn His happy lessons that we may remember only Love is real.
