Learning to See the Real World of Love

What I see now are but signs of disease, disaster and death. This cannot be what God created for His beloved Son. The very fact that I see such things is proof that I do not understand God. Therefore I also do not understand His Son. What I see tells me that I do not know who I am. I am determined to see the witnesses to the truth in me, rather than those which show me an illusion of myself.

To me, the purpose of everything is to prove that my illusions about myself are real. It is for this purpose that I attempt to use everyone and everything. It is for this that I believe the world is for. Therefore I do not recognize its real purpose. The purpose I have given the world has led to a frightening picture of it. Let me open my mind to the world’s real purpose by withdrawing the one I have given it, and learning the truth about it. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 55, W-pI.55.1:2-7;5:2-7. See also ACIM Lesson 55 Insights.)

The ego’s purpose for the world is to make separation seem real. This can only be done with illusions, which need constant “evidence” to keep us convinced that illusions are real. The Holy Spirit gives the world its real purpose — to bring forgiveness to every perception in the world. When this perception is complete, the world will simply cease to seem to exist. Forgiveness is the means to undo all the ego’s illusions that would teach us we are alone, separate, limited and weak.

Today we choose the Holy Spirit’s lessons that teach us only Love is real. His lessons help us remove our self-made barriers that hide the reality of Love. As we accept the Holy Spirit’s way of seeing, we see a world united in Love.
