How lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God’s Son! How free from fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! (A Course in Miracles, T-29.VI.6:1-2. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
All our unhappiness is the effect of judgment. Judgment separates us from what we judge. But our natural state is at one with all that is real. We are all one in Love. Whenever we judge, and thus separate, we are attacking our Self. This can only be perceived as harm, so it brings guilt with it.
Guilt and happiness cannot coexist. That is why the focus on forgiveness is the antidote for guilt and fear, clearing the way to experience God’s gift of perfect happiness. When we forgive a brother, we open the door to joining with the Love he is and heal ourselves. We free ourselves to see the loveliness of Love that surrounds us eternally.
