Learning to See Only Innocence

All you need do to dwell in quiet here with Christ is share His vision. Quickly and gladly is His vision given to anyone who is but willing to see his brother sinless. And no one can remain beyond this willingness, if you would be released entirely from all effects of sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for yourself? Can you reach Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to remain in misery? Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and God created it for you. Look at your holy brother, sinless as yourself, and let him lead you [to Heaven]. (A Course in Miracles, T-22.II.13. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)

It is impossible to judge anyone and share Christ’s vision. Judgment is the ego’s mechanism for making separation seem real. Christ’s vision sees only innocence, which automatically leads to union. It is the means to heal the separation and return to the unity and joy of Heaven.

Christ’s vision makes no exceptions. It sees innocence and nothing else. To join in the healing of the world, our function must be to let go of judgment and welcome Christ’s vision. There can be no exceptions if we would heal. No seeming adversary or threat to our happiness can be excluded from Christ’s vision if we would be healed.

Sometimes this seems like a tall order. But we have Help. We need only offer our willingness to receive a healed perception. The Holy Spirit will strengthen our willingness to help us release the false image that seems to threaten and divide us from our brothers.

Today we practice bringing all our thoughts to the Holy Spirit for purification with Christ’s vision. Thus will we be healed and extend healing.
