How holy are the healed! For in their sight their brothers share their healing and their love. Bringers of peace,— the Holy Spirit’s voice, through whom He speaks for God, Whose Voice He is,— such are God’s healers. They but speak for Him and never for themselves. They have no gifts but those they have from God. And these they share because they know that this is what He wills. They are not special. They are holy. They have chosen holiness, and given up all separate dreams of special attributes through which they can bestow unequal gifts on those less fortunate. Their healing has restored their wholeness so they can forgive, and join the song of prayer in which the healed sing of their union and their thanks to God. (A Course in Miracles, S-3.IV.1)
Our holiness is established by our unity with God. Being one with God, we share all of His attributes — His Love, His joy and His peace.
The choice to identify with the ego thought system of separation denies our unity with our Source. The effect of this choice is to perceive God’s Will as a threat to our will. We cannot maintain our special separate identity and remain aware of our unbreakable unity with Love’s oneness. It is this choice of separation that must be forgiven for us to remember that we are God’s Love.
Forgiveness in the world appears to take many forms, as guided by Spirit. This is because true forgiveness is a form in the dream of separation. It is a form that leads to awakening from the dream because it lets go of the misperceptions that see forms of separation as real. We need God’s Voice to guide is in true forgiveness. The Holy Spirit is not deceived by our mistaken belief in separation so He is able to teach us to recognize the falsity of this belief.
When we have fully accepted true forgiveness, we recognize that only the oneness of Love is real. The belief in separation is fully let go. Now we welcome our unity in God’s Love. We dwell in joy as we freely extend Love and feel Love’s blessing. Now forgiveness is complete. We have returned Home to Love.
