Loving Our Father as He Love Us

God is my Father, and His Son loves Him.

Father, I must return Your Love for me, for giving and receiving are the same, and You have given all Your Love to me. ²I must return [Your Love], for I want it mine in full awareness, blazing in my mind and keeping it within its kindly light, inviolate, beloved, with fear behind and only peace ahead. ³How still the way Your loving Son is led along to You!

Brother, we find that stillness now. ²The way is open. ³Now we follow it in peace together. ⁴You have reached your hand to me, and I will never leave you. ⁵We are one, and it is but this oneness that we seek, as we accomplish these few final steps which end a journey that was not begun. (A Course in Miracles, W-225. See also ACIM Lesson 225 Insights.)

God has given all His Love to our true Self, His Son. But when we identify with the ego, we deny the Love that is already ours. God’s Love is given equally to all. There is no specialness, nor are there differences.

To know the Love that is our true Self, we need to release the ego’s barriers to Love’s presence. This is what forgiveness is for. Forgiveness opens the way for us to Love our Father as He Loves us. That is our joy and our peace. With it comes gratitude and a recognition that we remain one with our Creator.
