Returning to the Promised Land of Love

The Holy Spirit is described as the remaining Communication Link between God and His separated Sons. ²In order to fulfill this special function the Holy Spirit has assumed a dual function. ³He knows because He is part of God; He perceives because He was sent to save humanity. ⁴He is the great correction principle; the bringer of true perception, the inherent power of the vision of Christ. ⁵He is the light in which the forgiven world is perceived; in which the face of Christ alone is seen. ⁶He never forgets the Creator or His creation. ⁷He never forgets the Son of God. ⁸He never forgets you. ⁹And He brings the Love of your Father to you in an eternal shining that will never be obliterated because God has put it there.

The Holy Spirit abides in the part of your mind that is part of the Christ Mind. ²He represents your Self and your Creator, Who are One. ³He speaks for God and also for you, being joined with Both. ⁴And therefore it is He Who proves Them One. ⁵He seems to be a Voice, for in that form He speaks God’s Word to you. ⁶He seems to be a Guide through a far country, for you need that form of help. ⁷He seems to be whatever meets the needs you think you have. ⁸But He is not deceived when you perceive your self entrapped in needs you do not have. ⁹It is from these He would deliver you. ¹⁰It is from these that He would make you safe. (A Course in Miracles, C-6.3:1–4:10)

The wish for specialness is the wish for differences. Differences conflict and can seem to lose value or be harmed. Anger, fear and guilt are inevitable in this environment. But such an environment could never occur in the oneness of God’s Love. Thus any death or destruction that seems to occur could never be real.

Into this environment that we accepted as real, our Creator has sent the Holy Spirit as the bridge of return to the reality of His Love. The Holy Spirit can see our mistaken perceptions but does not recognize them as real. Thus He can be a Guide to lead us out of our chosen world of perceived differences into the promised land of God’s Love. He can lead us out of our belief lovelessness and bring us Home to the reality of our oneness in the Love of God.

Today we choose to step back from our perceptions and welcome the Holy Spirit’s gift of true perception. We want to remember that we are Love, and nothing else.
