Recognizing Our True Self Within

I will not fear to look within today.

Within me is eternal innocence, because it is God’s Will that it be there forever and forever. ²I, His Son, whose will is limitless as is His Own, can will no change in this. ³For to deny my Father’s Will is to deny my own. ⁴To look within is but to find my will as God created it, and as it is. ⁵I fear to look within because I think I made another will that is not true, and made it real. ⁶Yet it has no effects. ⁷Within me is the Holiness of God. ⁸Within me is the memory of Him.

The step I take today, my Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of sin. ²Your altar stands serene and undefiled. ³It is the holy altar to my Self, and there I find my true Identity. (A Course in Miracles, W-309. See also ACIM Lesson 309 Insights.)

Everyone’s true nature is Love. It is our Identity. We have made an image that hides this Identity. This image seems to be easily hurt and must defend itself. It seems to hurt others in its own defense.

Yet o As we forgive the false images we have made, the Light of our Self radiates to the world. It joins with the Light in everyone and remembers It is the Light of God.

The world of images seems very real to us. But we can call upon the Holy Spirit to help us let go of the false images that seem to separate us. With His help, we will see the Love that is the truth in our brothers and recognize It in our Self.

Here we find peace. Let us look within for the Light of Love today.
