Seeing Past Fear to Our Reality as Love

Do you not see the opposite of frailty and weakness is sinlessness? Innocence is strength, and nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot fear, for sin of any kind is weakness.

You will believe that everything you use for sin can hurt you and become your enemy.… It is as certain you will fear what you attack as it is sure that you will love what you perceive as sinless [innocent]. He walks in peace who travels sinlessly along the way love shows him. For love walks with him there, protecting him from fear. And he will see only the sinless, who can not attack.

Walk you in glory, with your head held high, and fear no evil. The innocent are safe because they share their innocence. Nothing they see is harmful, for their awareness of the truth releases everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what seemed harmful now stands shining in their innocence, released from sin and fear and happily returned to love.

In kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine, and everything you once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. (A Course in Miracles, T-23.in.1:1-3;2:2,4-6;3:1-4. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

The ego sees everything in the world as potentially harmful. Bodies can attack other bodies or say things that harm the identity of others. The earth can crumble beneath our feet or erupt with fire and ash. The world the ego sees needs constant defense to protect the identity we associate with the body.

This identity is weak because it denies the reality of our true Identity in changeless Love. It is Love’s changelessness that makes it invulnerable to any harm. Our true Identity shares this invulnerability. Love is our strength. The appearance of weakness comes when we identity with a loveless illusion of what we are.

Forgiveness, letting go of belief in illusions, returns us to the awareness of the strength of the Love we are. When we forgive, we see past the images of harm projected by the ego. We see that only Love is real. We remember we are in Heaven now.
