The Gift That Gives Back

What could you want forgiveness cannot give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want happiness, a quiet mind, a certainty of purpose, and a sense of worth and beauty that transcends the world? Do you want care and safety, and the warmth of sure protection always? Do you want a quietness that cannot be disturbed, a gentleness that never can be hurt, a deep, abiding comfort, and a rest so perfect it can never be upset?

Forgiveness lets the veil be lifted up that hides the face of Christ from those who look with unforgiving eyes upon the world. It lets you recognize the Son of God, and clears your memory of all dead thoughts so that remembrance of your Father can arise across the threshold of your mind.

Here is the answer! Would you stand outside while all of Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you give you will receive.

God wills salvation be received today, and that the intricacies of your dreams no longer hide their nothingness from you. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 122, W-pI.122.1;3:1-2;6:1-4;7:6. See also ACIM Lesson 122 Insights.)

The veil that hides the face of Christ is our belief that we are alone and separate from God and every brother. This sense of separateness perceives a world of separation that cannot see the oneness of Love that is everywhere. Forgiveness is the means for letting go of the false belief in separation.

Separation is maintained by judgment which keeps sense of separation from what is judged. Each time we forgive a judgment, we remove a thread from the veil of separation. We make way for the vision of Christ to show us the oneness of Love that has always been our Home.

When we forgive, we give ourselves a gift that welcomes true Vision. We are healed of false perception and receive God’s gifts of all that is real. Today we accept the Holy Spirit’s help to forgive and be forgiven.
