Remembering Our Father’s Sure Protection

There is a light in you the world can not perceive. ²And with its eyes you will not see this light, for you are blinded by the world. ³Yet you have eyes to see it. ⁴It is there for you to look upon. ⁵It was not placed in you to be kept hidden from your sight. ⁶This light is a reflection of the thought we practice now. ⁷To feel the Love of God within you is to see the world anew, shining in innocence, alive with hope, and blessed with perfect charity and love.

Who could feel fear in such a world as this? ²It welcomes you, rejoices that you came, and sings your praises as it keeps you safe from every form of danger and of pain. ³It offers you a warm and gentle home in which to stay a while. ⁴It blesses you throughout the day, and watches through the night as silent guardian of your holy sleep. ⁵It sees salvation in you, and protects the light in you, in which it sees its own.

This is the world the Love of God reveals.

⁵If you feel the Love of God within you, you will look out on a world of mercy and of love. (A Course in Miracles, W-189.1:1–2:5;3:1;5:5. See also ACIM Lesson 189 Insights.)

To the ego, the world this lesson describes is inconceivable. That is because it does not know what Love is. All the forms the ego conjures contain some element of danger and pain which can not exist within the oneness of God’s Love.

We are learning that the ego’s dark world is not our home. Our true Self resides in God’s Love, where we are always “blessed with perfect charity and love.” His Love remains within us. It is the light in which our inner vision sees our eternal unity with our Father and every brother. We can rest with certainty that we are held eternally within His sure protection.
