Accepting God’s Purpose as Our Own

Think what is given those who share their Father’s purpose, and who know that it is theirs. They want for nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light they love is in awareness, and only love shines upon them forever. It is their past, their present and their future; always the same, eternally complete and wholly shared. They know it is impossible their happiness could ever suffer change of any kind. Perhaps you think the battleground can offer something you can win. Can it be anything that offers you a perfect calmness, and a sense of love so deep and quiet that no touch of doubt can ever mar your certainty? And that will last forever?

No one who knows that he has everything could seek for limitation, nor could he value the body’s offerings. (A Course in Miracles, T-23.IV.8;9:4. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)

God is Love, and Love’s only purpose is to extend Itself. As God’s creation, His Son is only Love. The Son’s only purpose is to extend Love. The eternal, changeless extending of Love is joy. When we recognize that we share our Father’s purpose to eternally extend Love, we experience joy beyond comprehension in the dream world of bodies and forms.

Our sole purpose is Love’s purpose. Fulfilling that purpose brings us the experience of Heaven — quietness that cannot be disturbed. Certainty that makes doubt impossible and an awareness that we have need of nothing, for we share God’s completion. This is Heaven.

In the dream of bodies and separation, we are not aware of the Heaven that is our Home. But forgiveness releases us from the false ideas that hide Heaven. Forgiveness is the key to happiness. Forgiveness is the key to peace. Forgiveness is the key to awareness that we are whole, perfect and complete as Love created us.
