Let me not be Your critic, Lord, today, and judge against You. ²Let me not attempt to interfere with Your creation, and distort it into sickly forms. ³Let me be willing to withdraw my wishes from its unity, and thus to let it be as You created it. ⁴For thus will I be able, too, to recognize my Self as You created me. ⁵In love was I created, and in love will I remain forever. ⁶What can frighten me, when I let all things be exactly as they are?
Let not our sight be blasphemous today, nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. ²Only reality is free of pain. ³Only reality is free of loss. ⁴Only reality is wholly safe. ⁵And it is only this we seek today. (A Course in Miracles, W-268.1–2. See also ACIM Lesson 268 Insights.)
As long as we identify with the ego, we will not feel safe. We will experience pain and loss. This is the environment the ego builds in order to provide the appearance of differences which support the wish for specialness. It is a high price to pay to satisfy the insane wish to have more than everything.
Today we will remind ourselves that we were created by Love to be only Love. We dwell in Love’s oneness. We ask the Holy Spirit to heal the thoughts which foster fear and guilt. We welcome the vision that shows us the reality of Love that unites us with All That is. God’s Love is our real Home.
