Accepting the Holiness We Share with God

I choose to see my brother’s sinlessness.

Forgiveness is a choice. ²I never see my brother as he is, for that is far beyond perception. ³What I see in him is merely what I wish to see, because it stands for what I want to be the truth. ⁴It is to this alone that I respond, however much I seem to be impelled by outside happenings. ⁵I choose to see what I would look upon, and this I see, and only this. ⁶My brother’s sinlessness shows me that I would look upon my own. ⁷And I will see it, having chosen to behold my brother in its holy light.

What could restore Your memory to me, except to see my brother’s sinlessness? ²His holiness reminds me that he was created one with me, and like myself. ³In him I find my Self, and in Your Son I find the memory of You as well. (A Course in Miracles, W-335. See also ACIM Lesson 335 Insights.)

The body is the ego’s tool to hide our true Identity as God’s one Son from our awareness. Our true Self has no form; it is an extension of God’s Love. We hold our belief we are a body by perceiving others as bodies. The joy we would experience when we free ourselves from body identification is beyond anything this world has to offer.

Today we ask for help to use Christ’s vision to see the innocence in our brother. The radiant Light of Love that is his Identity will remind us of our Self which shares the holiness of God Himself.
