Let me remember that my goal is God.
All that is needful is to train our minds to overlook all little senseless aims, and to remember that our goal is God. ²His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which offer nothing, and do not exist. ³Shall we continue to allow God’s grace to shine in unawareness, while the toys and trinkets of the world are sought instead? ⁴God is our only goal, our only Love. ⁵We have no aim but to remember Him.
Our goal is but to follow in the way that leads to You. ²We have no goal but this. ³What could we want but to remember You? ⁴What could we seek but our Identity? (A Course in Miracles, W-258. See also ACIM Lesson 258 Insights.)
Everyone in the world is seeking for Love. The ego offers “help” to find love. But the best it can offer is some form of specialness. But because the ego thought system always demands sacrifice to obtain specialness, it also fosters guilt. The ego’s direction never leads us to what we really seek. It does not know what Love is.
We have been given another Guide, Who is our bridge to the Love we seek. The Holy Spirit knows the way to God, the way to Love. If we are willing to step back from the ego’s lead and open our mind to the Holy Spirit, we will move toward our ultimate and only goal. We will find the Love we seek; we will find our true Identity.
As we set aside the ego’s illusions, we will learn that we are the Love we seek. In gratitude we accept His help today to remember our unbroken unity with God.
