All fear is past and only love is here.
All fear is past, because its source is gone, and all its thoughts gone with it. ²Love remains the only present state, whose Source is here forever and forever. ³Can the world seem bright and clear and safe and welcoming, with all my past mistakes oppressing it, and showing me distorted forms of fear? ⁴Yet in the present love is obvious, and its effects apparent. ⁵All the world shines in reflection of its holy light, and I perceive a world forgiven at last.
Father, let not Your holy world escape my sight today. ²Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude the world is singing underneath the sounds of fear. ³There is a real world which the present holds safe from all past mistakes. ⁴And I would see only this world before my eyes today. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 293, W-293. See also ACIM Lesson 293 Insights.)
The ego uses “memories” from the past to hide the presence of Love in the now moment. As long as we believe these memories are true, we will not be aware of the reality of Love in the now moment. The ego uses the past to overlook the present with made up stories about what may happen in the future. They are pure fiction based on illusions of the past.
These stories always justify fear and guilt for they are the glue that keeps the ego in our mind. Forgiveness of the past dissolves the glue. It releases the veil to reveal the present Love where we live and have our Being. This is how we make way for God’s gift of happiness and joy.
For every apprehension we can remind ourselves to forgive and the apparent cause will disappear because only Love is real.
