Remembering We Are One in Love

It is sin’s unreality that makes forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who offer it; a quiet blessing where it is received. ²It does not countenance illusions, but collects them lightly, with a little laugh, and gently lays them at the feet of truth. ³And there they disappear entirely.

Forgiveness is the only thing that stands for truth in the illusions of the world. ²It sees their nothingness, and looks straight through the thousand forms in which they may appear. ³It looks on lies, but it is not deceived.

The strength of pardon is its honesty, which is so uncorrupted that it sees illusions as illusions, not as truth. ²It is because of this that it becomes the undeceiver in the face of lies; the great restorer of the simple truth. ³By its ability to overlook what is not there, [forgiveness] opens up the way to truth, which has been blocked by dreams of guilt. ⁴Now are you free to follow in the way your true forgiveness opens up to you. ⁵For if one brother has received this gift of you, the door is open to yourself. (A Course in Miracles, W-134.6:1–7:3;8. See also ACIM Lesson 134 Insights.)

We are not asked not to see a world of differences where images seem to conflict with some winning and others losing. But we are being taught to recognize they are not real and let them go. As we forgive these differences, the unity of Love replaces differences. Peace dispels conflict. And joy becomes a daily experience. We see our Self, the Son of God, in everyone. We remember we are still united with our Creator in His Love.
