Remembering Our Life in God

Creation is the means for God’s extension, and what is His must be His Son’s as well.

The lovely light of your relationship is like the Love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of your brother is not complete as yet, and so it cannot be extended to all creation. Each form of murder and attack [separation from Love] that still attracts you and that you do not recognize for what it is, limits the healing and the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the Holy Spirit understand how to increase your little gifts and make them mighty. Also He understands how your relationship is raised above the battleground, in it no more. This is your part; to realize that murder [separation] in any form is not your will. The overlooking of the battleground is now your purpose.

Be lifted up, and from a higher place look down upon it. From there will your perspective be quite different. Here in the midst of [the battleground], it does seem real. Here you have chosen to be part of it. Here murder is your choice. Yet from above, the choice is miracles instead of murder. And the perspective coming from this choice shows you the battle is not real, and easily escaped. Bodies may battle, but the clash of forms is meaningless. And it is over when you realize it never was begun. How can a battle be perceived as nothingness when you engage in it? How can the truth of miracles be recognized if murder is your choice?”

When the temptation to attack rises to make your mind darkened and murderous, remember you can see the battle from above. (A Course in Miracles, T-23.IV.3:5;4:1-6:1. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

God’s Love is Life. Separation from Love is therefore murder because it is separation from Life. Any thought of separation in any form — discontent, disappointment, sadness, fear, anger — is just a form of murder because it is the denial of Life.

To return to the Life we live in God, we have to forgive or let go of every thought of separation. We can rise above the battleground. And with the Holy Spirit’s help, we can recognize the thoughts of separation as meaningless and having no effect. When we recognize there has been no effect, we naturally forgive the misperception. No harm ever happened in truth. Life in the oneness of Love becomes increasingly appealing because the forms of separation in the world become less attractive.

Today we call upon the Holy Spirit to help us rise above the battleground and see with His vision, for we would remember our Life in God.
