Joining with Love in Happiness and Peace

I am affected only by my thoughts.

It needs but this to let salvation come to all the world. ²For in this single thought is everyone released at last from fear. ³Now has he learned that no one frightens him, and nothing can endanger him. ⁴He has no enemies, and he is safe from all external things. ⁵His thoughts can frighten him, but since these thoughts belong to him alone, he has the power to change them and exchange each fear thought for a happy thought of love. ⁶He crucified himself. ⁷Yet God has planned that His beloved Son will be redeemed.

Your plan is sure, my Father,—only Yours. ²All other plans will fail. ³And I will have thoughts that will frighten me, until I learn that You have given me the only Thought that leads me to salvation. ⁴Mine alone will fail, and lead me nowhere. ⁵But the Thought You gave me promises to lead me home, because it holds Your promise to Your Son. (A Course in Miracles, W-338. See also ACIM Lesson 338 Insights.)

As God’s Son, we are a Thought in His Mind of Love. Only His Thought of Love is real. It is our true Identity. We claim our Identity by forgiving the mistaken wish for specialness. We claim our true Identity each time we let the Holy Spirit help us forgive and see with the forgiving eyes of Christ.

Everything we perceive in the world is a reflection of what we believe we are. If we believe we are separate, we see differences and conflict in the world. If we believe in our Identity as Love, we see Love everywhere and join with It in happiness and peace.
