Lifting the Veil of Judgment

9-6-22

My sinless brother is my guide to peace.
My sinful brother is my guide to pain.
And which I choose to see I will behold.

Who is my brother but Your holy Son? ²And if I see him sinful I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son of God; alone and friendless in a fearful world. ³Yet this perception is a choice I make, and can relinquish. ⁴I can also see my brother sinless, as Your holy Son. ⁵And with this choice I see my sinlessness, my everlasting Comforter and Friend beside me, and my way secure and clear. ⁶Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your Voice. ⁷For He alone gives judgment in Your Name. (A Course in Miracles, W-351. See also ACIM Lesson 351 Insights.)

All our judgments — likes and dislikes, opinions, expectations — are built upon the belief that we are separate and alone. They keep us imprisoned in a world of separation, unaware of the heavenly Love that is our natural habitat. Our judgments make us blind to the truth in our brothers and ourselves.

We can use our perceptions of the world and our brothers as signs that show us the need for healing our mind. The ego’s judgments are always based on perceiving forms of separation. When we identify with the ego, our judgments keep us separate from our brothers and our Source.

To free ourselves from this prison, we need to turn over all our perceptions, our judgments, to the Holy Spirit. His judgments are always true. He knows only Love is real. What He judges as unreal, He dismisses because He knows it has no effect. He shows us the sinlessness in our brothers. He offers us Christ’s vision, which shows us the Love that is our brother.

As we see the Love in our brother, we recognize It in ourselves. We bless our brothers who are one with us in the innocence of Love.
