Forgiveness Ends All Suffering and Loss

Forgiveness paints a picture of a world where suffering is over, loss becomes impossible and anger makes no sense. Attack is gone, and madness has an end. What suffering is now conceivable? What loss can be sustained? [In forgiveness] the world becomes a place of joy, abundance, charity and endless giving. It is now so like to Heaven that it quickly is transformed into the light that it reflects. And so the journey which the Son of God began has ended in the light from which he came. (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.249.1. See also ACIM Lesson 249 Insights.)

Forgiveness comes when we take our thoughts to the Holy Spirit to be undone. Our practice today is to forgive the world for all we thought it was. The truth is we are still one with the Mind of universal Love. We have not changed into a weak, vulnerable, separate entity. Because God created us whole and perfect, we could not change or be different from the pure Love we are eternally.

Through the practice of forgiveness, we let go of what we thought we were. We let go of what we thought our brothers were. We open to the Light of the Holy Spirit within and willingly let our false ideas be undone in the Light of truth. This is why forgiveness ends all suffering and loss.
