The Gift of Christ’s Vision

Now let a new perception come to me.

Father, there is a vision which beholds all things as sinless, so that fear has gone, and where it was is love invited in. And love will come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In His sight are all its sins forgiven, for He sees no sin in anything He looks upon. Now let His true perception come to me, that I may waken from the dream of sin and look within upon my sinlessness, which You have kept completely undefiled upon the altar to Your holy Son, the Self with which I would identify.

Let us today behold each other in the sight of Christ. How beautiful we are! How holy and how loving! Brother, come and join with me today. We save the world when we have joined. For in our vision it becomes as holy as the light in us. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 313, W-pII.313. See also ACIM Lesson 313 Insights.)

When we believe we are a body, we identify with limitation, weakness and lovelessness. We perceive a world where hate is strong and love is weak. But all this is not true. It can only seem real in a dream where the reality of Love is excluded.

We have a new perception available to us right now and always. This new perception shows the way out of the dream. It looks upon the presence of Love beyond the veil of separate identities. Christ’s vision shows us the reality of Love in which we live. It sees that Love in every brother, either as a call for Love or Love’s expression.

A brother’s loveless behavior inspires Love in us instead of fear. We no longer want to hold our brother to his fear-based image. The Love in us is inspired to reach out to our brother to give him Love. The giving of this gift is possible because we have accepted the gift ourselves. We are both blessed in the giving.

Today we call upon Christ’s vision to replace our mistaken perceptions. As we accept this gift, we bring healing to our mind and the world.
