Fulfilling the Function That Returns Us to Love

It is your Father’s holy Will that you complete Himself, and that your Self shall be His sacred Son, forever pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, extending love, creating in its name, forever one with God and with your Self.

³Forgiveness represents your function here.

…God created One Who has the power to translate in form the wholly formless. ⁶What He makes are dreams, but of a kind so close to waking that the light of day already shines in them, and eyes already opening behold the joyful sights their offerings contain.

Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in Heaven, sees them disappear, and leaves the world a clean and unmarked slate on which the Word of God can now replace the senseless symbols written there before. ²Forgiveness is the means by which the fear of death is overcome, because it holds no fierce attraction now and guilt is gone. ³Forgiveness lets the body be perceived as what it is; a simple teaching aid, to be laid by when learning is complete, but hardly changing him who learns at all. (A Course in Miracles, W-192.1:1;2:3;3:5–4:3. See also ACIM Lesson 192 Insights.)

There is only one thing we must do to escape the world of fear and guilt entirely. We must forgive all value we give to any forms in the world. When forgiveness is complete, with no exceptions, the world will disappear and we will waken to the Heaven of God’s Love.

While we still perceive a world of differences, we have a function to fulfill. Each time we take a perception to the Holy Spirit with willingness to accept His loving correction, we move closer to waking to the Love that is our true Identity. We are grateful for the help of our inner Teacher.
