Remembering Our Unbreakable Connection

God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him.

Perception is not an attribute of God. ²His is the realm of knowledge. ³Yet He has created the Holy Spirit as the Mediator between perception and knowledge. ⁴Without this link with God, perception would have replaced knowledge forever in your mind. ⁵With this link with God, perception will become so changed and purified that it will lead to knowledge. ⁶That is its function as the Holy Spirit sees it. ⁷Therefore, that is its function in truth.

In God you cannot see. ²Perception has no function in God, and does not exist. ³Yet in salvation, which is the undoing of what never was, perception has a mighty purpose. ⁴Made by the Son of God for an unholy purpose, [perception] must become the means for the restoration of his holiness to his awareness. ⁵Perception has no meaning. ⁶Yet does the Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to God’s. ⁷Healed perception becomes the means by which the Son of God forgives his brother, and thus forgives himself.

You cannot see apart from God because you cannot be apart from God. ²Whatever you do you do in Him, because whatever you think, you think with His Mind. ³If vision is real, and it is real to the extent to which it shares the Holy Spirit’s purpose, then you cannot see apart from God. (A Course in Miracles, W-43.1–3. See also ACIM Lesson 43 Insights.)

The world we experience is a perception based upon our belief that we are a separate entity. This belief leads to perceiving everything as separate and distinct from our own identity. Were it not for the unbreakable link of the Holy Spirit which keeps us connected to our Creator, we would be lost forever in the world of perception. This projected world is not real because only the oneness of God’s Love is real. It only seems real in a dream.

We can wake up from this dream by being willing to accept the Holy Spirit’s gift of Christ’s vision. His vision shows us the presence of Love beyond the barrier of perception. Christ’s vision is holy perception. It dismisses the barriers of belief in separation and helps us see the Light of Love that is always there to be seen. Christ’s vision bridges our perception from seeing separation to seeing the oneness of Love that joins us forever with our Source and every brother.

Today we practice asking the Holy Spirit for Christ’s vision. We want to remember the joy and peace that is our natural state as Love’s extension. We want to remember our unbreakable connection with our Source. We want to awaken to Love.
