It is [Jesus’] lesson most of all that he would have you learn, and it is this:
There is no death because the Son of God is like his Father. Nothing you can do can change Eternal Love. Forget your dreams of sin and guilt, and come with me instead to share the resurrection of God’s Son. And bring with you all those whom He has sent to you to care for as I care for you. (A Course in Miracles, C-5.6:8-12)
The foundation of all fear is the fear of death, which is really the fear of separation from Love, our Source. When we believe that we are disconnected from God’s Love, it feels like death because our only Life is the Life we share with God. There is no other Life.
The dream of separation, in which bodies seem to be born and die, is images made to make separation from Love seem real. Perceptions that seem to be the cause of irritation, sadness, anxiety, frustration, guilt and fear all are based on the belief that we have lost the life we share with God. These emotions are all manifestations of the fear of death. Yet we are assured that the Son of God cannot die. The Course repeatedly tells us that we are the Son of God. We are all untied as the one Son of God.
To experience this oneness, we need to let go of or forgive the idea that separation from God could exist. This is why forgiveness is the way Home. To learn this essential lesson we must practice moment by moment keeping our minds open to the Holy Spirit’s reinterpretation of all our perceptions. His loving Light will shine away the shadows of fear and the belief that we could be separate from Love. With His help the fearful images that seem so real will fade into the nothingness from which they came.
Today we practice walking with Holy Spirit in each moment.
