We Choose the Voice for Love Today

Judgment and love are opposites. From one come all the sorrows of the world. But from the other comes the peace of God Himself.

Forgiveness looks on sinlessness alone, and judges not. ²Through [forgiveness] I come to You. ³Judgment will bind my eyes and make me blind. ⁴Yet love, reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me You have given me a way to find Your peace again. ⁵I am redeemed when I elect to follow in this way. ⁶You have not left me comfortless. ⁷I have within me both the memory of You, and One Who leads me to it. ⁸Father, I would hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. ⁹For I would love my own Identity, and find in It the memory of You. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 352, W-352. See also ACIM Lesson 352 Insights.)

Perception is selective. We see what we want to see that fits our belief system. Likewise, we hear what we want to hear. In the world, we carry two voices in our mind. The ego speaks first and loudly. Yet the Voice for God is ever present and can be heard at any moment, if we choose to listen. We are always selecting which voice to listen to.

Judgment is the choice to listen to the ego. It keeps our attention focused on the dream of separation. This focus excludes the Voice for Love. But we can select differently. We choose God’s Voice by accepting the peace in our mind. His Voice will lead us to forgive the mistaken beliefs that have kept us focused on separation and the guilt that comes with it.

We choose the Voice for God today, for we would remember His Love and awaken to our true Identity.
