Today I claim the gifts forgiveness gives.
I will not wait another day to find the treasures that my Father offers me. ²Illusions are all vain, and dreams are gone even while they are woven out of thoughts that rest on false perceptions. ³Let me not accept such meager gifts again today. ⁴God’s Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and choose to follow Him. ⁵This is my choice today. ⁶And so I go to find the treasures God has given me.
I seek but the eternal. ²For Your Son can be content with nothing less than this. ³What, then, can be his solace but what You are offering to his bewildered mind and frightened heart, to give him certainty and bring him peace? ⁴Today I would behold my brother sinless. ⁵This Your Will for me, for so will I behold my sinlessness. (A Course in Miracles, W-334. See also ACIM Lesson 334 Insights.)
Everyone is seeking relief from the chaos and conflict in the world. It is only our denial of God’s gift of changeless Love that shows us the illusion of a world where fear seems justified. Yet the Reality of our true Self is all of God’s Love, changeless and eternal. Forgiveness of our denial of Love is all that is needed to experience our life in the quiet certainty of God’s Love.
Our denial has been reinforced by myriad forms which portray our vulnerability and isolation. Yet as we practice accepting the Holy Spirit’s help to forgive, we learn that all forgiveness comes down to recognizing that only Love is real. Nothing else exists.
We continue our practice of forgiveness today by welcoming the Holy Spirit’s help to heal our misperceptions so we can recognize we live in Love’s Reality now.
