The Call to Remember the Love We Are

Regard [your brother] gently. Look with loving eyes on him who carries Christ within him, that you may behold his glory and rejoice that Heaven is not separate from you.

Is it too much to ask a little trust for him who carries Christ to you, that you may be forgiven all your sins, and left without a single one you cherish still? Forget not that a shadow held between your brother and yourself obscures the face of Christ and memory of God [Holy Spirit]. And would you trade Them for an ancient hate? The ground whereon you stand is holy ground because of Them Who, standing there with you, have blessed it with Their innocence and peace.

When [the face of Christ and memory of God] come, time’s purpose is fulfilled. What never was passes to nothingness when They have come. What hatred claimed is given up to love, and freedom lights up every living thing and lifts it into Heaven, where the lights grow ever brighter as each one comes home. The incomplete is made complete again, and Heaven’s joy has been increased because what is its own has been restored to it. (A Course in Miracles, T-26.IX.1:5-2:4;4:2-5. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

When we see our brothers truly, we see them as the innocence of Christ, which reminds us of God, our Source. When we see our brother as a body, separate from ourselves, the truth of him is hidden by an illusion. The illusion will always seem real to us as long as we accept the ego as our guide.

The antidote to the world of fear and guilt is to choose the Guide Who is always ready, willing and able to show us the Christ in our brothers. This healed perception reflects back to us the truth of What we are. The image of ourselves as bodies fades in importance as we accept the Christ in us and all our brothers Who joins us all together in the oneness of God’s Love. The memory of the ego’s “history” is replaced by the eternal presence of Love. We remember God.

The safety and comfort of this Home replaces the conflict, uncertainty, fear and guilt of the illusions offered up by the ego. The call to return Home never ceases, for it is a call of our true Self to awaken to the Home we never truly left.
