The problem of separation, which is really the only problem, has already been solved. ⁵Yet the solution is not recognized because the problem is not recognized.
Everyone in this world seems to have his own special problems. ²Yet they are all the same, and must be recognized as one if the one solution that solves them all is to be accepted.
The temptation to regard problems as many is the temptation to keep the problem of separation unsolved. ²The world seems to present you with a vast number of problems, each requiring a different answer.
All this complexity is but a desperate attempt not to recognize the problem, and therefore not to let it be resolved. ²If you could recognize that your only problem is separation, no matter what form it takes, you could accept the answer because you would see its relevance. ³Perceiving the underlying constancy in all the problems that seem to confront you, you would understand that you have the means to solve them all. ⁴And you would use the means, because you recognize the problem.
Be not deceived by the form of problems today. ²Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, tell yourself quickly:
³Let me recognize this problem so it can be solved.
⁴Then try to suspend all judgment about what the problem is. ⁵If possible, close your eyes for a moment and ask what it is. ⁶You will be heard and you will be answered. (A Course in Miracles, W-79.1:4–2:2;4:1-2;6;10. See also ACIM Lesson 79 Insights.)
While we believe our identity is defined by our body, we are believing that separation is real. This belief is the only problem that needs to be resolved. All the complexity we see in the world are just variations in form that hide the simplicity of God’s Love.
His Love is universally one and the same throughout. Being eternal, there is no time when His Love varies. It is given equally to all without limit. Love’s changelessness means its peace can never be disturbed.
Whenever anything disturbs our peace, it is time to remind ourselves that we are perceiving a problem that is not real. It is time to ask the Holy Spirit to help us heal our misperception. This willingness will open our mind to accept the real solution to our perceived problem. The Holy Spirit will show us that there are no differences and that only Love’s oneness is real.
