Forgiving Our Perception of Differences

The glory of my Father is my own.

Let not the truth about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. ²Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father gave us. ³Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory any trace of sin and guilt? ⁴And can it be that we are not among them, when He loves His Son forever and with perfect constancy, knowing he is as He created him?

We thank You, Father, for the light that shines forever in us. ²And we honor it, because You share it with us. ³We are one, united in this light and one with You, at peace with all creation and ourselves.” (A Course in Miracles, W-239. See also ACIM Lesson 239 Insights.)

The ego demands that we perceive ourselves as less than God. This is part of its demand that we believe differences and separation are real. To the ego, it is blasphemy to claim God’s glory is our own.

But to our Creator, this is a simple statement of the truth that keeps us forever united in His Love. No one is left out of His Love. Today we accept our birthright as God’s Son by forgiving our mistaken perception of difference and joining with our brothers in the Light of Love.
