Accepting the Gift of Christ

The gift of Christ is all I seek today.

“=What but Christ’s vision would I use today, when it can offer me a day in which I see a world so like to Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me? ²Today I can forget the world I made. ³Today I can go past all fear, and be restored to love and holiness and peace. ⁴Today I am redeemed, and born anew into a world of mercy and of care; of loving kindness and the peace of God.

And so, our Father, we return to You, remembering we never went away; remembering Your holy gifts to us. ²In gratitude and thankfulness we come, with empty hands and open hearts and minds, asking but what You give. ³We cannot make an offering [illusion] sufficient for Your Son. ⁴But in Your Love the gift of Christ is his. (A Course in Miracles, W-306. See also ACIM Lesson 306 Insights.)

Our Creator has given us the means to recognize the purity of Love that is the truth in everyone. But our wish to have a unique identity that makes us special denies the gift that keeps us forever united with our Father.

When we let go of that denial of our true Identity, we remember we never left the safety of our Home in Heaven. Today we set aside our mistaken wish for specialness and come with an open mind to accept the gift of our Father’s Love. In gratitude we recognize His Love as the truth in everyone.
