Let us today be children of the truth, and not deny our holy heritage. ²Our life is not as we imagine it. ³Who changes life because he shuts his eyes, or makes himself what he is not because he sleeps, and sees in dreams an opposite to what he is? ⁴We will not ask for death in any form today. ⁵Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an instant where the Thought of life eternal has been set by God Himself.

When we identify with the ego and the body image it made, it does not seem that we are a Thought in the Mind of God. The body image is a barrier that seems to house a separate mind, impervious to the Will of God. This is the way the ego protects itself from God’s Love. The ego fears Love because Its Presence would make the wish for specialness recognizable as insane. Who but the insane would wish for conflict, danger, lovelessness and loss when they have been given limitless Love, peace that cannot be disturbed and indescribable joy?

We have been given the Holy Spirit to lead us out of our insanity. Lovingly and gently He guides us to recognize the foolishness of wishing for specialness in the presence of limitless Love. With His help we learn that what we really want is to be what we were created to be — Love and nothing else. As we accept this, we are accepting our true Life, the Life we live in God’s Love.
