Knowing Our True Identity

I am the holy Son of God Himself.

Here is your declaration of release from bondage of the world. ²And here as well is all the world released. ³You do not see what you have done by giving to the world the role of jailer to the Son of God.

Yet what is it except a game you play in which Identity can be denied? ²You are as God created you. ³All else but this one thing is folly to believe. ⁴In this one thought is everyone set free. ⁵In this one truth are all illusions gone. ⁶In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be forever part of everything, the central core of its existence and its guarantee of immortality.

But let today’s idea find a place among your thoughts and you have risen far above the world, and all the worldly thoughts that hold it prisoner. ²And from this place of safety and escape you will return and set it free. ³For he who can accept his true Identity is truly saved. ⁴And his salvation is the gift he gives to everyone, in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the way to happiness that changed his whole perspective of the world. (A Course in Miracles, W-191.1:1-3;4–5. See also ACIM Lesson 191 Insights.)

While we believe we are a body, we are suffering from a misplaced identity. We have disowned our true Identity by choosing a false one that seems to give us a special place in a universe of illusions. Another word for this universe is hell. It is a place where everyone at some point suffers and dies. This is not a world we truly want. We have paid a high price to have something we could call our own.

Today we are assured that not only is this false universe not real, it does not exist and never has in truth. By claiming our Identity as God’s Son, we are accepting His gift of all of His Love with no limits nor reservations. It is the gift of Heaven.

We have help to reclaim our true Identity from the Holy Spirit in our mind. As we are willing to question our perceptions and ask for His help to reinterpret our perceptions, we will learn to see our true Identity reflected back to us in everyone we look upon. They are all a part of our one Identity. As we see them truly, we will know our true Identity.
