When truth has come it harbors in its wings the gift of perfect constancy, and love which does not falter in the face of pain, but looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of healing, for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no attack is possible. Illusions can be brought to truth to be corrected. But the truth stands far beyond illusions, and [truth] can not be brought to [illusions] to turn them into truth.
Truth does not come and go nor shift nor change…. Give truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your Father wills these dreams be gone. Let truth correct them all.
Give truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your Father wills these dreams be gone. Let truth correct them all. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 107, W-pI.107.5;6:1,6-9;8:1. See also ACIM Lesson 107 Insights.)
It seems incredible that the body we identify with and the world we experience is nothing but illusion. Illusions are images that are made up and therefore not real. What we think of as our life is nothing more than illusions seemingly strung together over time in a dream.
Sometimes these dreams are happy yet transient at best. Even in our happy times we commonly “wait for the other shoe to drop.” We don’t believe that joy can last forever. And we believe that death is the only certainty we can count on. It does not seem that none of this is real.
Yet hidden by the dream remains the changeless truth that we remain Love as Love created us. Love’s joy and peace are ours now. This is our inheritance, given us in our Creation, never to be changed nor lost. The Truth in us is constantly calling to us to awaken from the dream of separation and death. It tells us that we are Love and nothing else.
We dedicate this day to listening to this call with willingness to see the truth beyond the dream. We are willing to awaken to Love because we want to awaken from the dream of denying Love.
