God is the light in which I see.
In order to see, you must recognize that light is within, not without. You do not see outside yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing outside you. An essential part of this equipment is the light that makes seeing possible. It is with you always, making vision possible in every circumstance.
…leave behind everything that you now believe, and all the thoughts that you have made up. Properly speaking, this is the release from hell. Yet perceived through the ego’s eyes, it is loss of identity and a descent into hell.
If you can stand aside from the ego by ever so little, you will have no difficulty in recognizing that its opposition and its fears are meaningless.
…what is needful is a sense of the importance of what you are doing; its inestimable value to you, and an awareness that you are attempting something very holy. Salvation is your happiest accomplishment. It is also the only one that has any meaning, because it is the only one that has any real use to you at all.
Try to think of light, formless and without limit, as you pass by the thoughts of this world. And do not forget that they cannot hold you to the world unless you give them the power to do so. (W-pI.44.2;5:4-6:1;8;10:2-3)
The body is not part of our Reality as God’s Son. It represents the ego’s wish to be excluded from God. God’s Creation of His Son comes with one condition: His Son must accept His eternal unity with His Creator. As a projection of the ego’s rejection of God’s Love, the body cannot be real. What the body sees, hears, feels and experiences is likewise unreal. The body’s eyes were made to be unable to perceive the Light of Love. But as God’s Son, we have the innate ability to see Love’s Light and see the oneness we share with All That Is.
Love is the Light that brings Christ’s vision to reveal the innocence and unity that joins us with every brother in our Creator. Today we let the Light of Love guide us by asking Love to take the lead in all our thoughts.
