Seeing Our True Identity Reflected in Others

Truth answers every call we make to God, responding first with miracles, and then returning unto us to be itself.

Forgiveness, truth’s reflection, tells me how to offer miracles, and thus escape the prison house in which I think I live. ²Your holy Son is pointed out to me, first in my brother; then in me. ³Your Voice instructs me patiently to hear Your Word, and give as I receive. ⁴And as I look upon Your Son today, I hear Your Voice instructing me to find the way to You, as You appointed that the way shall be:

⁵Behold his sinlessness, and be you healed. (A Course in Miracles, W-357. See also ACIM Lesson 357 Insights.)

Everyone we meet or think about is a reflection of what we believe we are. If we see him as a body, it is because we believe we are a body, separate from all others. If we see him as Love, it is because we have accepted that we are Love. In every moment we decide what we want to perceive as real.

Everyone offers us an opportunity to help us remember our true Identity. When we let God’s Voice guide us past our judgments, we let the innocence of Love in a brother reflect back to us our own innocence as God’s Son. With this forgiveness, everyone becomes our teacher to learn that we are united with all in the Love of our Creator.
