The Holy Spirit offers you release from every problem that you think you have. They are the same to Him because each one, regardless of the form it seems to take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and make a sacrifice that you might gain. And when the situation is worked out so no one loses is the problem gone, because it was an error in perception that now has been corrected. One mistake is not more difficult for Him to bring to truth than is another. For there is but one mistake; the whole idea that loss is possible, and could result in gain for anyone. If this were true, then God would be unfair; sin would be possible, attack be justified and vengeance fair.
This one mistake, in any form, has one correction. There is no loss; to think there is, is a mistake. You have no problems, though you think you have.
Every problem is an error. It does injustice to the Son of God, and therefore is not true. The Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small, or more or less. They have no properties to Him. They are mistakes from which the Son of God is suffering, but needlessly. And so He takes the thorns and nails away. He does not pause to judge whether the hurt be large or little. He makes but one judgment; that to hurt God’s Son must be unfair and therefore is not so. (A Course in Miracles, T-26.II.2;3:1-3;4:2-9. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)
The ego is the belief in loss because only if someone loses and someone else gains does specialness appear to be real. This could only “occur” if separation were real. This belief is the one error that must be corrected. It is the one correction that releases us from all error.
The way to heal our minds of the belief in separation and loss is give all our perceptions to the Holy Spirit to let Him correct our mistake. We cannot correct our mistaken perceptions without His help while we believe separation and loss are real, which is the cause of the problem. As long as we insist that loss is real, we will not recognize that our problem has been solved. We must be willing to accept that we are wrong about our perception. This opens our mind to receive His correction. The Holy Spirit’s vision shows us that the perceived loss is not true. We remain unchanged as God’s Son in the oneness of His Love.
