The holy Christ is born in me today.
Watch with me, angels, watch with me today. Let all God’s holy Thoughts surround me, and be still with me while Heaven’s Son is born. Let earthly sounds be quiet, and the sights to which I am accustomed disappear. Let Christ be welcomed where He is at home. And let Him hear the sounds He understands, and see but sights that show His Father’s Love. Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is born again in me today.
Your Son is welcome, Father. He has come to save me from the evil [separate, loveless] self I made. [Christ] is the Self that You have given me. He is but what I really am in truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my Self as You created me. It is not Christ that can be crucified. Safe in Your Arms let me receive Your Son. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 303 , W-pII.303. See also ACIM Lesson 303 Insights.)
Christ is born in us when we accept the Son God created as our Self. The self we believe we are is the ego’s false substitute which denies God’s gift of all of His Love. The birth of Christ in us is simply the acknowledgement of the Love we have always been in truth.
The path to complete acceptance of Christ as our Identity is through forgiveness of the false beliefs of the ego. We forgive by accepting Love as our Guide and Interpreter of all we perceive. Love sees only Itself and recognizes denial of Love as a call for Love. With Love as our Guide, the world is transformed and we see God’s world of Love instead of the ego’s denial of Love.
