Being an Instrument of Love

…you are never healed alone. ⁴And legions upon legions will receive the gift that you receive when you are healed.

Those who are healed become the instruments of healing.

⁶Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds; that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that they will both occur as one.

…our function is to let our minds be healed, that we may carry healing to the world, exchanging curse for blessing, pain for joy, and separation for the peace of God.

⁵When I am healed I am not healed alone. ⁶And I would bless my brothers, for I would be healed with them, as they are healed with me. (A Course in Miracles, W-137.10:3–11:1;12:6–13:1;15:5-6. See also ACIM Lesson 137 Insights.)

The wish for specialness can only seem to be accomplished in a loveless dream where separation appears real. Loneliness is inevitable in this dream. We yearn to be united with our true Self in every brother.

We can awaken from this dream by being willing to welcome the truth in our mind. We have convinced ourselves that what appears in the dream is true. But if we are willing to quiet our mind and welcome the Holy Spirit’s presence, our perceptions are transformed. He shows us the presence of Love beyond the images of separation. Gently and lovingly He teaches us to recognize that no form in the world offers anything we really want.

As we become willing to consider that there is more beyond the images that will truly satisfy our need to be and extend Love, we take steps toward awakening. As we welcome Love we naturally extend It to our brothers and bring them with us in our awakening. Together we are healed.
