Claiming Our Shared Purpose as God’s Son

In me salvation’s means and end are one.

In me, God’s holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven’s plan to save the world. What could conflict, when all the parts [of Heaven’s plan] have but one purpose and one aim? How could there be a single part that stands alone, or one of more or less importance than the rest? I am the means by which God’s Son is saved, because sal­vation’s purpose is to find the sinlessness that God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I am the goal the world is searching for. I am God’s Son, His one eternal Love. I am salva­tion’s means and end as well.

Let me today, my Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I accept Atonement for myself. For thus does what is thereby rec­onciled in me become as surely reconciled to You. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 318, W-pII.318. See also ACIM Lesson 318 Insights.)

We are all God’s one Son. But the world we see denies our true Self, God’s Son. The single purpose we all share in Heaven’s plan is to accept the truth that we are His Son. As God’s Son, we remain eternally united with our Father. God’s only purpose for His Son is that he remain eternally united with Himself.

Accepting this shared purpose reveals our innocence and awakens us to our Home in Heaven. In truth, we never left. We have only accepted a false idea of being separate and believed it was true. The effect of this belief is the experience of being a body in a world of separate images. These images seem to conflict, attack each other and justify fear and guilt. They exclude the unified presence of Love. Peace and lasting happiness are impossible in this imagined world, for Love’s oneness is denied.

Today we ask the Holy Spirit to help us remember that we are God’s Son and look upon everything with this remembrance. In this state of mind, we will experience God’s joy and peace. It’s worth the practice.
