Accepting Our True Identity

Why would you not be overjoyed to be assured that all the evil that you think you did was never done, that all your sins are nothing, that you are as pure and holy as you were created, and that light and joy and peace abide in you? ²Your image of yourself cannot withstand the Will of God. ³You think that this is death, but it is life. ⁴You think you are destroyed, but you are saved.

The self you made is not the Son of God. ²Therefore, this self does not exist at all. ³And anything it seems to do and think means nothing. ⁴It is neither bad nor good. ⁵It is unreal, and nothing more than that.

Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. ²Over and over this must be repeated, until it is accepted. ³It is true. ⁴Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. ⁵Nothing can touch it, or change what God created as eternal. ⁶The self you made, evil and full of sin, is meaningless. ⁷Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God, and light and joy and peace abide in you.

²Should you be tempted to become angry with someone, tell him silently:

³Light and joy and peace abide in you.
⁴Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. (W-93.4:1–5:5;6;11:2-4)

We need to let go of the false image we have made of ourselves. It is the source of all our pain, guilt and fear. This imagined false image only seems to exist because of our belief in it.

Yet it has no effect whatsoever on our true Self, created by God. It is our true Self in which Light and joy and peace abide. This is the Self that is Love and nothing else, eternally.

Today’s affirmations help us remember our true Identity. As we accept this fact, the false self image fades and disappears into the nothingness from which it came. We are grateful for this loving reminder.
