Fear is not justified in any form.
Fear is deception. ²It attests that you have seen yourself as you could never be, and therefore look upon a world which is impossible. ³Not one thing in this world is true. ⁴It does not matter what the form in which it may appear. ⁵It witnesses but to your own illusions of yourself. ⁶Let us not be deceived today. ⁷We are the Sons of God. ⁸There is no fear in us, for we are each a part of Love Itself.
How foolish are our fears! ²Would You allow Your Son to suffer? ³Give us faith today to recognize Your Son, and set him free. ⁴Let us forgive him in Your Name, that we may understand his holiness, and feel the love for him which is Your Own as well. (A Course in Miracles, W-240. See also ACIM Lesson 240 Insights.)
The ego is the denial of Love. To keep our attention, it offers us countless images of conflict that foster fear. When there is fear we feel a need to defend and attack, which seems to justify more fear.
But we are the Sons of God, part of Love Itself. Conflict cannot occur in Love’s oneness. We have been given a Teacher in our mind Whose function is to help us see past the fear-producing illusions of differences. Today we resolve to accept His help to forgive our illusions and recognize that only Love is real. We are safe in the changelessness of Love.
