Illusion can but seem to hold in chains the holy Son of God. It is but from illusions he is saved. As [illustions] step back, he finds himself again.
Walk safely now, yet carefully, because this path is new to you. And you may find that you are tempted still to walk ahead of truth, and let illusions be your guide. Your holy brothers have been given you, to follow in your footsteps as you walk with certainty of purpose to the truth. [Truth] goes before you now, that [your brothers] may see something with which they can identify; something they understand to lead the way.
Step back in faith and let truth lead the way. You know not where you go. But One Who knows goes with you. Let Him lead you with the rest.
We walk to God. Pause and reflect on this. Could any way be holier, or more deserving of your effort, of your love and of your full intent? What way could give you more than everything, or offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now is one with Him, and leads us to where He has always been. What way but this could be a path that you would choose instead? (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 155, W-pI.155.8:5-9:4;10:3-6;12. See also ACIM Lesson 155 Insights.)
Each time we step back from our perception of the world and accept the Holy Spirit’s true perception in its place, we lead the way for our brothers on the path to truth. In that moment we serve as a teacher of God by our demonstration of following truth instead of illusions. The practice of stepping back and letting Holy Spirit lead the way is the way we let go of the ego’s chains of limitation and separation.
To free ourselves, we need to be diligent with this practice. The appearances we see with the body’s eyes tempt us to believe that separation is real. This belief blinds us to the truth. The more we step back and let Him lead the way, the more we serve as a Light to others who seek their freedom to be the Love they were created to be, along with us. This is the holy path that leads us to the full remembrance that we are God’s Son, at one with Him eternally, safe in the changelessness of Love.
