Love Is Our Natural State

God in His mercy wills that I be saved.

I need but look upon all things that seem to hurt me, and with perfect certainty assure myself, “God wills that I be saved from this,” and merely watch them disappear. ²I need but keep in mind my Father’s Will for me is only happiness, to find that only happiness has come to me. ³And I need but remember that God’s Love surrounds His Son and keeps his sinlessness forever perfect, to be sure that I am saved and safe forever in His Arms. ⁴I am the Son He loves. ⁵And I am saved because God in His mercy wills it so.

Father, Your Holiness is mine. ²Your Love created me, and made my sinlessness forever part of You. ³I have no guilt nor sin in me, for there is none in You. (A Course in Miracles, W-235. See also ACIM Lesson 235 Insights.)

The key to happiness is to remember that Love created us like Itself — forever happy and sinless. Love is our natural state. We have convinced ourselves that we are a separate identity, confined to a body and only exist in a dangerous world where we must constantly be defensive.

But belief does not make true. It only makes illusions seem to be true. With the Holy Spirit’s help, we can let go of our mistaken beliefs. We welcome His healing vision each time we ask, “Holy Spirit, please heal my fear-based beliefs.” With this request, we open our mind to Christ’s vision, which shows us the presence of Love everywhere. We learn to see our brothers as Love and join with It. In Love’s oneness we find the happiness we seemed to have lost because of our mistaken beliefs. We remember that we are Love and nothing else.
