The Key to a Happy Life

This is the lesson God would have you learn: There is a way to look on everything that lets it be to you another step to Him, and to salvation of the world. ²To all that speaks of terror, answer thus:

³I will forgive, and this will disappear.

⁴To every apprehension, every care and every form of suffering, repeat these selfsame words. ⁵And then you hold the key that opens Heaven’s gate, and brings the Love of God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. ⁶God will take this final step Himself. ⁷Do not deny the little steps He asks you take to Him. (A Course in Miracles, W-193.13. See also ACIM Lesson 193 Insights.)

A happy life is a forgiving life. Unhappiness is always the effect of judgment. Any judgments we make on our own are based upon the false premise that we have a true basis from which to judge.

Only the Holy Spirit judges truly. His judgment is very simple. He sees everything as true or false, real or unreal. What is unreal is completely overlooked and dismissed. The reality that remains is only God’s Love. It brings with it Love’s attributes of peace and happiness.

We turn over all our judgments to Him and let Him show us the truth beyond the dream, the Love beyond the images of the world. We are grateful that we have His help to awaken from the dream that has kept us unaware of the Love we are.
