This is my holy instant of release.
Father, it is today that I am free, because my will is Yours. ²I thought to make another will. ³Yet nothing that I thought apart from You exists. ⁴And I am free because I was mistaken, and did not affect my own reality at all by my illusions. ⁵Now I give them up, and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be removed forever from my mind. ⁶This is my holy instant of release. ⁷Father, I know my will is one with Yours.
And so today we find our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. ²The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. ³The Son of God this day comes home again, released from sin and clad in holiness, with his right mind restored to him at last. (A Course in Miracles, W-227. See also ACIM Lesson 227 Insights.)
It was our choice to dream of specialness instead of living in the uniformity of Love. We have paid a steep price for this choice. It is not a price imposed by God. The feeling of lack, loss of Love, fear and guilt is solely of our own making.
In any moment we can make another choice. We need help with that choice because we have become so invested in the dream of specialness. We have that help now and in every moment. Our Creator gave us the Holy Spirit to speak to us of the truth that we never lost His blessing. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we can remember that we share God’s will for our happiness and peace.
Today we welcome His help to accept the oneness of our will with our Creator’s. We have the choice to be free and know that we are Love.
