Forgiveness offers everything I want.
All the complexities the world has spun of fragile cobwebs disappear before the power and the majesty of this extremely simple statement of the truth.
Here is the answer! Do not turn away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation now. It is the gift of God, and not the world. The world can give no gifts of any value to a mind that has received what God has given as its own. God wills salvation be received today, and that the intricacies of your dreams no longer hide their nothingness from you.
Open your eyes today and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to take the place of hell. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 122, W-pI.122.6:7-8:2. See also ACIM Lesson 122 Insights.)
The ego cannot forgive. True forgiveness would eliminate the belief in separation. When forgiveness is complete, the ego would simply cease to seem to exist.
By God’s grace, we have been given the means for true forgiveness. The Holy Spirit’s mission is to teach us to see as He sees; to remember only Love is real. This remembrance comes with true perception, which the Holy Spirit’s vision offers us. His vision sees past the illusionary images of the world to the oneness of Love that is the one Self we all share.
As we accept the Holy Spirit’s vision, the value of the ego’s images diminishes to be replaced by God’s peace and joy. The temporary “benefits” of things in the world are recognized as meaningless in the Light of eternal Love that is seen with true perception. All we really want is to remember that we are Love, at Home in Love, safe in the Heart of Love. Forgiveness offers this.
