Whatever suffers is not part of me.
I have disowned the truth. ²Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. ³Whatever suffers is not part of me. ⁴What grieves is not myself. ⁵What is in pain is but illusion in my mind. ⁶What dies was never living in reality, and did but mock the truth about myself. ⁷Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of God. ⁸Now am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and as he is.
Father, my ancient love for You returns, and lets me love Your Son again as well. ²Father, I am as You created me. ³Now is Your Love remembered, and my own. ⁴Now do I understand that they are one. (A Course in Miracles, W-248. See also ACIM Lesson 248 Insights.)
We were not born to suffer and die. That is a false image we have accepted in place of our Identity as God’s Son — eternal Love and unchangeable. It is time to let go of our mistaken self-image.
Today can be a day of remembering the Love we are, which includes everyone. This memory will return to us if we are willing to accept the Holy Spirit’s vision in place of our misperceptions. As we are willing to walk with the Holy Spirit through the day, following His Guidance, we will learn to see past the false images to the radiant Love that is the truth of everyone everywhere. With this vision, we will see the Love we are.
We bring every thought that disturbs our peace of mind to the Holy Spirit for His interpretation. He will help us see that what disturbs our peace is not real. With that recognition, the presence of Love will fill our awareness. In gratitude we accept His help.
