Learning to See God’s Guiltless Son

Mary:
In our reading of A Course in Miracles this morning, this is what stood out to me:

…the Son of God is guiltless now, and the brightness of his purity shines untouched forever in God’s Mind. God’s Son will always be as he was created. Deny your world and judge him not, for his eternal guiltlessness is in the Mind of his Father, and protects him forever. …As you perceive the holy companions (every brother) who travel with you, you will realize that there is no journey, but only an awakening. (T-13.I.5:6-8,7:1)

This world was made up in our minds to project the guilt that came with the desire to usurp God’s Will and establish a will of our own. The way out of this madness is to be willing to let our true Self show us everyone’s innocence. In truth, nothing has happened to change God’s one, perfect, loving Son. As I am willing to see innocence everywhere, I wake up from the dream of guilt.

This is my practice for today — to step back again and again and again to be shown the innocence that is eternally there in every brother. And I will receive what I ask for in my heart of hearts.

Robert:
The more I read ACIM, the more it is reinforced that the way to awaken is to let go of judgment. This is another way of saying “to forgive.” If I see a brother as a body, I am judging him as limited to that image. I am not seeing him as he is. I need to let this go. If I believe anyone is a body, including myself, I am unable to see the reality of Love. Love has no limits and has no form. It is simply the free and eternal extension of joy and peace. Love cannot be limited by any image.

While I seem to be walking in the world with a body, the body’s eyes will show me images. That’s what it was made to do. But I don’t have to believe these images have any meaning or value. As I practice letting my true Self interpret all that I seem to see, I will learn to look past the images. Their seeming importance will fade and the Light of Love will shine through with increasing brilliance. This is how I truly want to see the world, for this is how I will learn of the Love that I am. My practice today is to let my true Self be the interpreter of all things.
