Salvation is a promise, made by God, that you would find your way to Him at last. ²It cannot but be kept. ³It guarantees that time will have an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in time will end as well. ⁴God’s Word is given every mind which thinks that it has separate thoughts, and will replace these thoughts of conflict with the Thought of peace.
The Thought of peace was given to God’s Son the instant that his mind had thought of war. ²There was no need for such a Thought before, for peace was given without opposite, and merely was. ³But when the mind is split there is a need of healing. ⁴So the Thought that has the power to heal the split became a part of every fragment of the mind that still was one, but failed to recognize its oneness. ⁵Now it did not know itself, and thought its own Identity was lost.
Salvation is undoing in the sense that it does nothing, failing to support the world of dreams and malice. ²Thus it lets illusions go. ³By not supporting them, it merely lets them quietly go down to dust. ⁴And what they hid is now revealed; an altar to the holy Name of God whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your forgiveness laid before it, and the memory of God not far behind.
Let us come daily to this holy place, and spend a while together. ²Here we share our final dream. ³It is a dream in which there is no sorrow, for it holds a hint of all the glory given us by God. (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.2.1:1–4:3. See also ACIM Lesson 231 Insights.)
Conflict can only occur when the appearance of differences is believed to be real. This belief is the cause of the world we experience.
But Love is one, eternally the same. There is no conflict in this oneness, so it is in a constant state of peace. This is our natural state as well, for we, along with every brother, were created by Love and remain one with It.
We have been given the Thought of Love to help us remember our innate peace. We call on this Thought today to guide us in all our doing. We would see past the appearance of conflicting images. We welcome Love’s Light and happily join with It in every brother. In that Light we bring our brothers with us as we awaken to our Home in Love.
