God’s Name is holy, but no holier than yours. To call upon His Name is but to call upon your own. A father gives his son his name, and thus identifies the son with him. His brothers share his name, and thus are they united in a bond to which they turn for their identity. Your Father’s Name reminds you who you are, even within a world that does not know; even though you have not remembered it.
God’s Name can not be heard without response, nor said without an echo in the mind that calls you to remember. Say His Name, and you invite the angels to surround the ground on which you stand, and sing to you as they spread out their wings to keep you safe, and shelter you from every worldly [separation] thought that would intrude upon your holiness [oneness].”
All little things are silent. Little sounds are soundless now. The little things of earth have disappeared. The universe consists of nothing but the Son of God, who calls upon his Father. And his Father’s Voice gives answer in his Father’s holy Name. In this eternal, still relationship, in which communication far transcends all words, and yet exceeds in depth and height whatever words could possibly convey, is peace eternal. In our Father’s Name, we would experience this peace today. And in His Name, it shall be given us. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 183, W-pI.183.1-2;11. See also ACIM Lesson 183 Insights.)
What a beautiful and happy practice we have today to remember our true Identity as God’s perfect Love… As we practice this consistently through the day, we are able to feel God’s peace… God’s all inclusiveness… the perfect Love of God That everyone is in truth…
Worry thoughts disappear. It is easier to discern between the real and the unreal. We are able to feel God’s strength… God’s Love… God’s joy… and extend it to the world…
Because we are one with God, this remembering is very powerful. We connect with every brother at this holy level of truth. We are so grateful to practice this all through the day.
