Recognizing the Gift Every Moment Offers

²Neutral thoughts are impossible because all thoughts have power. ³They will either make a false world or lead me to the real one. ⁴But thoughts cannot be without effects. ⁵As the world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. ⁶My thoughts cannot be neither true nor false. ⁷They must be one or the other. ⁸What I see shows me which they are.

²What I see witnesses to what I think. ³If I did not think I would not exist, because life is thought. ⁴Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my own state of mind. ⁵I know that my state of mind can change. ⁶And so I also know the world I see can change as well.

³I would look upon the witnesses that show me the thinking of the world has been changed. ⁴I would behold the proof that what has been done through me has enabled love to replace fear, laughter to replace tears, and abundance to replace loss. ⁵I would look upon the real world, and let it teach me that my will and the Will of God are one. (A Course in Miracles, W-54.1:2-8;2:2-6;5:3-5. See also ACIM Lesson 54 Insights.)

The world we experience gives us constant feedback of our state of mind. If we see a world of lack and loss, fear and guilt, we are in a mental state of believing separation is real. The thought of separation needs to be forgiven. It appears in myriad forms. The Holy Spirit will help us forgive those forms and see past them to the Love that is the truth.

As we practice this forgiveness, we begin to recognize that all the forms have the same thing in common: They are not real.

The constant feedback we receive is increasingly recognized as a gift. It shows us where forgiveness is needed. As we accept help to forgive our mistaken thoughts, our minds are healed. We increasingly recognize Love in the world. Our joy increases and we rest in quietness, remembering we are safe in the Love of God.
