The Gift of Heaven

Mary:
This morning we read A Course in Miracles chapter 19, section D.i., “The Lifting of the Veil.” What stood out to me in this section is, “Heaven is the gift you owe your bother, the debt of gratitude you offer to the Son of God in thanks for what he is, and what his Father created him to be.” (T-19.IV.D.i.19:6)

I see that this is my practice today: To offer Heaven to every brother I see or even think of. My job is to remember that every brother is still as God created him. My job is to remember that he is Heaven to me. He not only is in Heaven but he is Heaven, as am I. My job is to remember again and again throughout the day that we all are in Heaven and of Heaven Where we were created. Remembering this brings me joy. My job is to be willing to remember this truth today. This will guarantee me a happy day. And I give thanks.

Robert:
I offer Heaven to my brother by seeing him as he is: Innocence and Love, and nothing else. My brother is not a body whose appearance and action I may judge. My brother is the Spirit of Love. When I can see my brother as he is, he reflects back to me What I am. So in the giving, I receive. That’s really cool.

Thank you Father for your law that giving and receiving are the same in You. It is impossible to bless without being blessed.
