The Certainty of Our Home in Heaven

⁵Learn that even the darkest nightmare that disturbs the mind of God’s sleeping Son holds no power over him. ⁶He will learn the lesson of awaking. ⁷God watches over him and light surrounds him.

Can God’s Son lose himself in dreams, when God has placed within him the glad Call to waken and be glad? ²He cannot separate himself from what is in him. ³His sleep will not withstand the Call to wake. ⁴The mission of redemption will be fulfilled as surely as the creation will remain unchanged throughout eternity. ⁵You do not have to know that Heaven is yours to make it so. ⁶It is so. ⁷Yet to know it, the Will of God must be accepted as your will.

The Holy Spirit will undo for you everything you have learned that teaches that what is not true must be reconciled with truth.

⁶You will be released, and you will not remember anything you made that was not created for you and by you in return. ⁷For how can you remember what was never true, or not remember what has always been? ⁸It is this reconciliation with truth, and only truth, in which the peace of Heaven lies. (A Course in Miracles, T-13.XI.9:5–11:1,6-8.. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

The ego loves to worry. It tells us it is important for our survival. We need to be prepared to protect ourselves from something that may harm us, like the common saying, “Waiting for the other shoe to drop.” It even seems that worrying about the wellbeing of our loved ones is the kind and helpful way to be supportive. All these fear thoughts are ego mechanisms to keep us locked into its dream of fear. We need not be caught in the ego’s trap.

We can be released from this fear by accepting the Holy Spirit’s help to undo our fruitless attempts to make this frightening dream real. God guarantees that His Son share His peace and happiness. He has given the Holy Spirit the function to undo the dream. We need only be willing to accept His help to teach us to recognize what is true and dismiss the false. He is the Call to awaken from the dream and remember the certainty that Heaven is our Home.
