You are your brother’s savior. ²He is yours. ³Reason speaks happily indeed of this. ⁴This gracious plan was given love by Love. ⁵And what Love plans is like Itself in this: Being united, It would have you learn what you must be. ⁶And being one with [Love], it must be given you to give what It has given, and gives still. ⁷Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is given you to give your brother, and learn with him what has been given both of you. ⁸To give is no more blessed than to receive. ⁹But neither is it less.
The Son of God is always blessed as one. ²And as his gratitude goes out to you who blessed him, reason will tell you that it cannot be you stand apart from blessing. ³The gratitude he offers you reminds you of the thanks your Father gives you for completing Him. ⁴And here alone does reason tell you that you can understand what you must be. ⁵Your Father is as close to you as is your brother. ⁶Yet what is there that could be nearer you than is your Self? (A Course in Miracles, T-21.VI.9–10. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)
We bless our brothers by recognizing we are one and the same Love. This recognition must apply to both ourself and our brother. The Holy Spirit’s singular teaching is that we are one in Love and nothing else. The ego cannot show us this reality. Its voice speaks only of Love’s denial.
The Holy Spirit’s Voice speaks only of Love. As we accept Its lessons, we learn to see past the conflicts in the world to the unity of Love that keeps us eternally united with our Creator. Today we welcome the Holy Spirit’s lessons. With His help, we will teach peace and learn that it is ours.
