Peace Welcomes Holy Spirit’s Help

The memory of God comes to the quiet mind. ²It cannot come where there is conflict, for a mind at war against itself remembers not eternal gentleness. ³The means of war are not the means of peace, and what the warlike would remember is not love. ⁴War is impossible unless belief in victory is cherished. ⁵Conflict within you must imply that you believe the ego has the power to be victorious.

Conflict must be between two forces. ²It cannot exist between one power and nothingness. ³There is nothing you could attack that is not part of you. ⁴And by attacking it you make two illusions of yourself, in conflict with each other. ⁵And this occurs whenever you look on anything that God created with anything but love. …⁹Let all this madness be undone for you, and turn in peace to the remembrance of God, still shining in your quiet mind.

Illusion meets illusion; truth, itself. ²The meeting of illusions leads to war. ³Peace, looking on itself, extends itself. ⁴War is the condition in which fear is born, and grows and seeks to dominate. ⁵Peace is the state where love abides, and seeks to share itself. ⁶Conflict and peace are opposites. ⁷Where one abides the other cannot be; where either goes the other disappears. ⁸So is the memory of God obscured in minds that have become illusions’ battleground. ⁹Yet far beyond this senseless war it shines, ready to be remembered when you side with peace. (A Course in Miracles, T-23.I.1:1-5;8:1-5,9;12. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

We let our insanity be undone for us by turning all our perceptions over to the Holy Spirit for His interpretation. He will help us see past the illusions of differences to the Love of God that unites us with our creator.

We welcome the Holy Spirit’s help by stepping back from our perceptions and pausing to let peace into our conflicted mind. In peace we remember the Love that created us. We remember God. In this state of mind, the images of the world fade. The Light of Love shows us that we dwell in Love with all our brothers whom we happily join to extend universal Love.
