Letting Love Shine on the World

Creation’s gentleness is all I see.

I have indeed misunderstood the world, because I laid my sins on it and saw them looking back at me. ²How fierce they seemed! ³And how deceived was I to think that what I feared was in the world, instead of in my mind alone. ⁴Today I see the world in the celestial gentleness with which creation shines. ⁵There is no fear in it. ⁶Let no appearance of my sins obscure the light of Heaven shining on the world. ⁷What is reflected there is in God’s Mind. ⁸The images I see reflect my thoughts. ⁹Yet is my mind at one with God’s. ¹⁰And so I can perceive creation’s gentleness.

In quiet would I look upon the world, which but reflects Your Thoughts, and mine as well. ²Let me remember that they are the same, and I will see creation’s gentleness. (A Course in Miracles, W-265. See also ACIM Lesson 265 Insights.)

Perceptions of differences are projections from a mind that wants separation to be real. A world of perceived differences is a world of conflict, making fear inevitable.

But the Universe of Love is one and the same, always and everywhere. By quieting our mind, we are open to see the gentle Love that is our Home. Gratitude fills our mind as we let Love’s Light shine on the world.
