Those who would see the witnesses to truth instead of to illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose in the world that gives it sense and makes it meaningful. Without your special function has this world no meaning for you. Yet it can become a treasure house as rich and limitless as Heaven itself. No instant passes here in which your brother’s holiness cannot be seen, to add a limitless supply to every meager scrap and tiny crumb of happiness that you allot yourself.
It is your special function to ensure the door be opened, that he may come forth to shine on you, and give you back the gift of freedom by receiving it of you. (A Course in Miracles, T-26.I.5;8:4)
Our special function is to see our brother’s holiness. Our special function is to see past the world of separate bodies to the fact that God’s Son is One and includes everyone. As we see the radiant Love in every brother, we receive the Love we are focusing on because giving and receiving are the same. As we give we are receiving. That is why seeing the Love in every brother brings us great happiness and peace.
To see the Love, we must let go of judgment and allow the truth in every brother to take the place of the images we judge. Herein lies our freedom from the bonds of our belief in separation. With the Holy Spirit’s help we let go of judgment and the world becomes a mirror to show us the Love that unites us as one.
