Letting Love Light Our Way

Love makes no comparisons. And gratitude can only be sincere if it be joined to love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will never be that some are loosed while others still are bound.

Walk, then, in gratitude the way of love. For hatred is forgotten when we lay comparisons aside. What more remains as ob­stacles to peace? The fear of God is now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot choose to overlook some things, and yet retain some other things still locked away as “sins.” When your forgiveness is complete you will have total gratitude, for you will see that everything has earned the right to love by being loving, even as your Self.

Our gratitude will pave the way to Him, and shorten our learning time by more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude goes hand in hand with love, and where one is the other must be found. For gratitude is but an aspect of the Love which is the Source of all creation. God gives thanks to you, His Son, for be­ing what you are; His Own completion and the Source of love, along with Him. Your gratitude to Him is one with His to you. For love can walk no road except the way of gratitude, and thus we go who walk the way to God. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 195, W-pI.195.4:2-5;8;10. See also ACIM Lesson 195 Insights.)

Only Love is real; It recognizes only Itself everywhere. Comparison is impossible in this oneness. The Love we are as Love’s Creation joyously joins with Love everywhere.

The pain, suffering, fear and guilt we see and experience could only seem real in a dream of illusions. This seeming reality comes from our intransigent belief in what could never be real in truth. We see the power of belief acted out in our dream world as factions conflict with each other. People appear to die in defense of these mistaken beliefs. Yet the truth of the Love that is in everyone as the Son of God remains unaffected by these beliefs.

Now is the time to let Love guide our perceptions. As we let the Holy Spirit show us Christ’s vision, our misinterpretations of the world are transformed. Conflict fades and the joy of joining in Love takes precedence. The darkness of fear and guilt are shown away by the Light of Love. We recognize our brothers in joy and gratitude as the peace of God becomes our state of mind.

Today we choose the vision of Christ and walk in gratitude.
