Reclaiming Our True Identity in God

If you are trusting in your own strength, you have every reason to be apprehensive, anxious and fearful. ²What can you predict or control? ³What is there in you that can be counted on? ⁴What would give you the ability to be aware of all the facets of any problem, and to resolve them in such a way that only good can come of it? ⁵What is there in you that gives you the recognition of the right solution, and the guarantee that it will be accomplished?

Of yourself you can do none of these things.

God is your safety in every circumstance. ²His Voice speaks for Him in all situations and in every aspect of all situations, telling you exactly what to do to call upon His strength and His protection.

³It is not by trusting yourself that you will gain confidence. ⁴But the strength of God in you is successful in all things. (A Course in Miracles, W-47.1:1–2:1;3:1-2;5:3-4. See also ACIM Lesson 47 Insights.)

God surrounds us with His Love. It is always present, but we are unaware of It while we believe we are a separate self. This separate self identity seems weak and vulnerable to myriad outside sources we cannot control. The uncertainty that comes with our misidentification as a separate identity is because this identity is an illusion.

Because illusions have no foundation in truth, they can shift and change on a whim. But this is not our true existence. We remain one with God as He created us, His Son. We have all of God’s strength. We share His invulnerability. God does not change, and neither does our true Identity.

We reclaim our true Identity as we practice accepting the Holy Spirit’s lead in everything we do. He will always lead us to remember we are Love and nothing else.
