Our Real Identity Is Spirit

You are the spirit lovingly endowed with all your Father’s Love and peace and joy. You are the spirit which completes Himself, and shares His function as Creator. He is with you always, as you are with Him. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.97.2:2-4)

If we want to experience God’s gifts of Love and peace and joy, we must dis-identify with the body and form as our identity. Our real Identity is Spirit. To know the gifts of Spirit, we must identify with the truth of What we are. Spirit has no limits. Spirit is all that is real. By Its very nature, Spirit is joined with all that is Real. Nothing outside of Spirit exists. As we accept Spirit as What we are, we know our invulnerability, for we know there is nothing outside us that could bring harm.

If any circumstance or thought or seeming memory disturbs our peace, it is a sure sign that we are identifying with a false image and denying the Spirit we are. It is time to step back from that false identity and turn to the Holy Spirit in our mind for help to accept our real Identity. The Holy Spirit remembers for us that we are Spirit, one Self, united with our Creator. As we open our hearts and minds to receive Holy Spirit’s healing lessons, we are taught to recognize the false images for what they are. Once these false images are recognized, they are easily laid down. We open our minds to the recognition of our Self.

Holy Spirit, guide my thoughts today. Help me to recognize the false thoughts and see past them. Give me Your strength when I mistakenly believe in weakness. Wrap me in Your Love when I am believing I am in a loveless world. Help me to see the reality of Love that is ever present.
