I will not be afraid of love today.
If I could realize but this today, salvation would be reached for all the world. ²This the decision not to be insane, and to accept myself as God Himself, my Father and my Source, created me. ³This the determination not to be asleep in dreams of death, while truth remains forever living in the joy of love. ⁴And this the choice to recognize the Self Whom God created as the Son He loves, and Who remains my one Identity.
Father, Your Name is Love and so is mine. ²Such is the truth. ³And can the truth be changed by merely giving it another name? ⁴The name of fear is simply a mistake. ⁵Let me not be afraid of truth today. (A Course in Miracles, W-282. See also ACIM Lesson 282 Insights.)
Our true Identity is Love. The ego is the denial of this fact. In its denial of reality, the ego must make up a world of illusions that support its denial of Love. Because fear is the absence of Love, fear pervades the ego’s world.
Forgiveness is the way out of the ego’s world. When we forgive our identification with the ego, we let go of our barriers to Love. We let the Light of our true Identity shine brighter in our mind. We experience a greater peace because of the stability of Love’s oneness. We trust in Love’s certainty, knowing Love does not change.
Today we ask the Holy Spirit’s help to recognize our mistaken perceptions and welcome His loving corrections.
