My holiness shines bright and clear today.
Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy things of God to come to me. I ask but them to come, and realize my invitation will be answered by the thoughts to which it has been sent by me. And I will ask for only joyous things the instant I accept my holiness. For what would be the use of pain to me, what purpose would my suffering fulfill, and how would grief and loss avail me if insanity departs from me today, and I accept my holiness instead?
Father, my holiness is Yours. Let me rejoice in it, and through forgiveness be restored to sanity. Your Son is still as You created him. My holiness is part of me, and also part of You. And what can alter Holiness Itself? (, A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 285,W-pII.285. See also ACIM Lesson 285 Insights.)
When we identify with the ego, we are asking for unhappiness, for grief, sickness, fear and death. Believing we are separate from our Creator is believing we are unholy. That belief sends out requests for images that seem to confirm the reality of separation. So the pain and suffering we experience in the world is there by our request when we believe the ego’s insanity is our identity.
Accepting our holiness is sanity because we are accepting what is real instead of believing in what could never be real. Only Love is real. As we accept the Self that Love created, joy and peace come with it. This is the Will of our Creator and it is the Will of our Self as well. This Self is holy because It remains united with the Source of holiness. God’s holiness is ours. As we let go of our belief in a past that is not here, we make way for the Light of the present to show us the reality of Love’s presence.
