Our Promised Resurrection to Love

³Heaven asks nothing. ⁴It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. ⁵You give up nothing in these times today when, undefended, you present yourself to your Creator as you really are.

He has remembered you. ²Today we will remember Him. ³For this is Eastertime in your salvation. ⁴And you rise again from what was seeming death and hopelessness. ⁵Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for now you come without defense, to learn the part for you within the plan of God. ⁶What little plans or magical beliefs can still have value, when you have received your function from the Voice for God Himself?

Try not to shape this day as you believe would benefit you most. ²For you can not conceive of all the happiness that comes to you without your planning. ³Learn today. ⁴And all the world will take this giant stride, and celebrate your Eastertime with you. ⁵Throughout the day, as foolish little things appear to raise defensiveness in you and tempt you to engage in weaving plans, remind yourself this is a special day for learning, and acknowledge it with this:

⁶This is my Eastertime. ⁷And I would keep it holy. ⁸I will not defend myself, because the Son of God needs no defense against the truth of his reality. (A Course in Miracles, W-135.24:3–26:8. See also ACIM Lesson 135 Insights.)

The choice to want specialness in place of the unity of Love triggered a dream of lovelessness in which death is believed to be real. This dream is fraught with conflict and loss. It seems to require constant defense to protect our perceived unique and separate identity. This is not our Home in truth.

Today we are reminded that we can leave this hellish dream behind. We can rise above this mistaken thought system to the oneness of our Creator’s Love. In this Love, we find perfect peace and joy unknown in the dream. Today we gratefully accept the Holy Spirit’s help to remember that we are God’s Son, united in His Love with all of Reality.

His vision shows us the Light of Love that shines brilliantly from our Father and every brother whom He created as His one Son. We are grateful that this promised resurrection is ours to claim.
