Celebrating Our Life in God

There is one life, and that I share with God.

…the idea of death takes many forms. ⁴It is the one idea which underlies all feelings that are not supremely happy. ⁵It is the alarm to which you give response of any kind that is not perfect joy. ⁶All sorrow, loss, anxiety and suffering and pain, even a little sigh of weariness, a slight discomfort or the merest frown, acknowledge death. ⁷And thus deny you live.

Let us today be children of the truth, and not deny our holy heritage. ²Our life is not as we imagine it. ³Who changes life because he shuts his eyes, or makes himself what he is not because he sleeps, and sees in dreams an opposite to what he is? ⁴We will not ask for death in any form today. ⁵Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an instant where the Thought of life eternal has been set by God Himself. (A Course in Miracles, W-167.2:3-7;10. See also ACIM Lesson 167 Insights.)

We are entitled to perfect happiness. It is God’s gift to us, His Son. God sees us all united as His one Son.

When we are not supremely happy; when our perfect peace is disturbed by the tiniest ripple, we have accepted a false identity that denies our Reality. We experience it as life, but it denies the Life we live in God. And so it is not true.

We celebrate the Life we live in God by accepting Christ’s vision to see the world through forgiving eyes. With this vision, Love’s eternal presence is acknowledged. The joy of extending Love is our Life. Our minds are at peace and our hearts overflow with gratitude.
