Use all the little names and symbols which delineate the world of darkness. ²Yet accept them not as your reality. ³The Holy Spirit uses all of them, but He does not forget creation has one Name, one meaning, and a single Source which unifies all things within Itself. ⁴Use all the names the world bestows on them but for convenience, yet do not forget they share the Name of God along with you.
Father, our Name is Yours. ²In It we are united with all living things, and You Who are their one Creator. ³What we made and call by many different names is but a shadow we have tried to cast across Your Own reality. ⁴And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. ⁵All our mistakes we give to You, that we may be absolved from all effects our errors seemed to have. ⁶And we accept the truth You give, in place of every one of them. ⁷Your Name is our salvation and escape from what we made. ⁸Your Name unites us in the oneness which is our inheritance and peace. ⁹Amen. (A Course in Miracles, W-184.11;15. See also ACIM Lesson 184 Insights.)
When we identify with the ego, the wish for specialness, we deny our the Identity we share with God. This misidentification has made a dream of myriad forms that represent the differences we value in our quest for specialness. They hide our eternal unity in the oneness of our Father’s Love.
To awaken us from this dream, the Holy Spirit uses the labels we value, but knows they have no meaning. When we accept His help, he teaches us to see the one Meaning behind all the forms of differences. With His help we will learn to forgive our mistaken beliefs and recognize we remain one with our Creator and share His Identity. We are Love, and nothing else. And we give thanks.
