The bridge that leads to union in yourself must lead to knowledge, for it was built with God beside you, and will lead you straight to Him where your completion rests, wholly compatible with His. Every illusion you accept into your mind by judging it to be attainable removes your own sense of completion, and thus denies the Wholeness of your Father. Every fantasy, be it of love or hate, deprives you of knowledge for fantasies are the veil behind which truth is hidden. To lift the veil that seems so dark and heavy, it is only needful to value truth beyond all fantasy, and to be entirely unwilling to settle for illusion in place of truth.
Waken from time, and answer fearlessly the Call of Him Who gave eternity to you in your creation. On this side of the bridge to timelessness you understand nothing. But as you step lightly across it, upheld by timelessness, you are directed straight to the Heart of God. At its center, and only there, you are safe forever, because you are complete forever. There is no veil the Love of God in us together cannot lift. The way to truth is open. Follow it with me. (A Course in Miracles, T-16.IV.10;13:5-11. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
The wish to be special, to have a unique identity separate from God, is the veil that hides the truth of our wholeness from our awareness. The way to awareness of the truth in us is to forgive or let go of the wish for specialness.
The ego and all of its manifestations in the world are the effect of the wish for specialness. As we forgive this insane wish, the ego is undone. The veil that hides our wholeness in God’s Love is lifted. The way to the truth of what we are is to choose the Guide Who’s sole purpose is to show us the reality of Love and the unreality of fantasies of separation.
We dedicate today to choosing Holy Spirit as our Guide, as our Interpreter of everything we perceive. We accept His direction in all things today, moment by moment. This is how we reach the bridge that Holy Spirit will carry us across to know our oneness in the Love of God.
