Uniting with Our Brothers in Love

³Heaven asks nothing. ⁴It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. ⁵You give up nothing in these times today when, undefended, you present yourself to your Creator as you really are.

He has remembered you. ²Today we will remember Him. ³For this is Eastertime in your salvation. ⁴And you rise again from what was seeming death and hopelessness. ⁵Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for now you come without defense, to learn the part for you within the plan of God. ⁶What little plans or magical beliefs can still have value, when you have received your function from the Voice for God Himself?

Try not to shape this day as you believe would benefit you most. ²For you can not conceive of all the happiness that comes to you without your planning. ³Learn today. ⁴And all the world will take this giant stride, and celebrate your Eastertime with you. ⁵Throughout the day, as foolish little things appear to raise defensiveness in you and tempt you to engage in weaving plans, remind yourself this is a special day for learning, and acknowledge it with this:

⁶This is my Eastertime. ⁷And I would keep it holy. ⁸I will not defend myself, because the Son of God needs no defense against the truth of his reality. (A Course in Miracles, W-135.24:3–26:8. See also ACIM Lesson 135 Insights.)

The illusion of separation needs constant defense to maintain belief in its “reality.” The body, and the world we experience with it, is a defense against our recognition of the truth of our identity as Love. When we lay down these defenses with an open mind and heart to welcome Christ’s vision, it can be compared to resurrection from the dead. We lay down our insistence on a separate identity which denies our Source of Life. Thus it is our resurrection from death to Life.

Let us join together today in the practice of remembering that all our brothers are one with us as God’s one Son. We are united in Love. Nothing else is real.
