Judgment and love are opposites. From one come all the sorrows of the world. But from the other comes the peace of God Himself.
Forgiveness looks on sinlessness alone, and judges not. ²Through this I come to You. ³Judgment will bind my eyes and make me blind. ⁴Yet love, reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me You have given me a way to find Your peace again. ⁵I am redeemed when I elect to follow in this way. ⁶You have not left me comfortless. ⁷I have within me both the memory of You, and One Who leads me to it. ⁸Father, I would hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. ⁹For I would love my own Identity, and find in It the memory of You. (A Course in Miracles, W-352. See also ACIM Lesson 352 Insights.)
Love does not judge nor condemn. It sees only Itself everywhere, and everything, for only Love is real.
We lost ourselves in a dream where Love is denied and fear reigns supreme. Yet the memory of God and all His Love remains with us still. It can never be lost because It is the memory of our true Self, united eternally with our Creator.
The chaos we see within the world is merely a call for the Love that is our true Self. In this dream, forgiveness is the way to open the door to the return of our memory that Love is our true Reality. Today we choose to answer our calls for Love by forgiving our misperceptions. In forgiveness, the memory of Love returns.
