Let all things be exactly as they are.
Let me not be Your critic, Lord, today, and judge against You. ²Let me not attempt to interfere with Your creation, and distort it into sickly forms. ³Let me be willing to withdraw my wishes from its unity, and thus to let [creation] be as You created it. ⁴For thus will I be able, too, to recognize my Self as You created me. ⁵In love was I created, and in love will I remain forever. ⁶What can frighten me, when I let all things be exactly as they are?
Let not our sight be blasphemous today, nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. ²Only reality is free of pain. ³Only reality is free of loss. ⁴Only reality is wholly safe. ⁵And it is only this we seek today. (A Course in Miracles, W-268. See also ACIM Lesson 268 Insights.)
God’s Creation extends the Love He is. Only Love creates, and only like Itself.
When we believe separate bodies and separate things are real, we deny God’s Creation. The body is not Love because it is a limited form that cannot exist in the oneness of Love. Thus to identify with a body is to be blasphemous against God.
This mistaken identification blinds us to our true Self. Yet the Self God created as His Son remains unchanged. We seem to live in a world of form which has no effect whatsoever to our real Life we live in God. But our engagement in this dream prevents us from knowing the joy and peace that come with co-creating in Love with God.
We can awaken from this dream by welcoming the Holy Spirit’s vision. Today we seek the Holy Spirit’s interpretation of all our perceptions. With His reinterpretation, our minds are opened to know the Self God created as His Son.
