It is your Father’s holy Will that you complete Himself, and that your Self shall be His sacred Son, forever pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, extending love, creating in its name, forever one with God and with your Self.
³Forgiveness represents your function here.
…God created One Who has the power to translate in form the wholly formless. ⁶What He makes are dreams, but of a kind so close to waking that the light of day already shines in them, and eyes already opening behold the joyful sights their offerings contain.
Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in Heaven, sees them disappear, and leaves the world a clean and unmarked slate on which the Word of God can now replace the senseless symbols written there before. ²Forgiveness is the means by which the fear of death is overcome, because it holds no fierce attraction now and guilt is gone. ³Forgiveness lets the body be perceived as what it is; a simple teaching aid, to be laid by when learning is complete, but hardly changing him who learns at all. (A Course in Miracles, W-192.1:1;2:3;3:5–4:3. See also ACIM Lesson 192 Insights.)
We have the power in our mind to heal the mistaken beliefs that cause our nightmare experience of conflict, loss, fear and guilt. This power is available to us in every moment. It is God’s gift to His beloved Son, our true Self. When we are willing to reconsider our interpretations of our perceptions, we can call upon this Help to show us how to forgive our mistaken beliefs.
Today, in every now moment, we have the opportunity to accept this help. Today we welcome It by asking our Inner Teacher of everything, “What is this for?” He will use this openness to show us the Reality of Love beyond the dark thoughts of division and isolation. He will help us learn that we are Love and nothing else. In this recognition, we find peace and happiness.
