Joying with the Cause of Love

I am forever an Effect of God.

Father, I was created in Your Mind, a holy Thought that never left its home. ²I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. ³As You created me I have remained. ⁴Where You established me I still abide. ⁵And all Your attributes abide in me, because it is Your Will to have a Son so like his Cause that Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. ⁶Let me know that I am an Effect of God, and so I have the power to create like You. ⁷And as it is in Heaven, so on earth. ⁸Your plan I follow here, and at the end I know that You will gather Your effects into the tranquil Heaven of Your Love, where earth will vanish, and all separate thoughts unite in glory as the Son of God.

Let us today behold earth disappear, at first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into God’s holy Will. (A Course in Miracles, W-326. See also ACIM Lesson 326 Insights.)

As an effect of God, we share all His attributes — His Love, His peace and His joy. As His Son, this is What we are in truth. God did not make a world of differences. When we have forgiven, the wish for specialness and differences will disappear and make way for us to extend our Father’s Love and joy and peace.

As His effect, we have the power to extend of His Cause. Forgiveness clears away the imagined barriers that would limit the extension of Love’s Cause. In truth, we are Love and nothing else. Love is all we can give because nothing else exists.

Today we let the Holy Spirit help us forgive our mistaken wishes and join in the eternal Cause of Love.
