I am entitled to miracles because I am under no laws but God’s. His laws release me from all grievances, and replace them with miracles. And I would accept the miracles in place of the grievances, which are but illusions that hide the miracles beyond. Now I would accept only what the laws of God entitle me to have, that I may use it on behalf of the function He has given me.
Behind this is a miracle to which I am entitled.
Let me not hold a grievance against you, [name],
but offer you the miracle that belongs to you instead.
Seen truly, this offers me a miracle.(A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 89, W-pI.89.1:2-5;2:2-4. See also ACIM Lesson 89 Insights.)
To hold a grievance, we must believe that something other than our self can harm us or deprive us of something we want. This is a denial of the law of God, which is that Love is One; there is no “other.” So any perceived problem comes from the belief that we are separate and that there is something else other than what we are. This is the core of all grievances. The answer to the grievance is the recognition that we are one in Love. There is nothing else.
Both the thought that we are alone and the thought that we are Love are in our mind. That is why the solution to the problem is already present. We need only turn away from the false belief in being alone and accept the reality of Love as our Identity for all “problems” to be solved.
In practice in the world, we need to bring everything that disturbs our peace to the Holy Spirit in our mind with willingness to accept His vision in place of our perception. His vision will show us the Love that lies beyond the appearance. With His help we will learn that no matter what the circumstance appears to be, we remain Love as Love created us. And we will see that our brothers are joined with us in that one Love. This is how we let our grievances be replaced by miracles.
