Walking into the Light of Love

If God’s Will for you is complete peace and joy, unless you experience only this you must be refusing to acknowledge His Will. His Will does not vacillate, being changeless forever. When you are not at peace it can only be because you do not believe you are in Him. Yet He is All in all. His peace is complete, and you must be included in it. His laws govern you because they govern everything. You cannot exempt yourself from His laws, although you can disobey them. Yet if you do, and only if you do, you will feel lonely and helpless, because you are denying yourself everything.

I am come as a light into a world that does deny itself everything. It does this simply by dissociating itself from everything. It is therefore an illusion of isolation, maintained by fear of the same loneliness that is [the world’s] illusion. I said that I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. That is why I am the light of the world. If I am with you in the loneliness of the world, the loneliness is gone. You cannot maintain the illusion of loneliness if you are not alone. My purpose, then, is still to overcome the world. I do not attack it, but my light must dispel it because of what it is. Light does not attack darkness, but it does shine it away. If my light goes with you everywhere, you shine it away with me. The light becomes ours, and you cannot abide in darkness any more than darkness can abide wherever you go. The remembrance of me is the remembrance of yourself, and of Him Who sent me to you. (A Course in Miracles, T-8.IV.1-2. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

Loneliness is the inevitable effect of choosing to believe we are separate. The Course is teaching us to let go of this belief so that we can experience the eternal presence of God’s Love. This is our Home. In truth we live in Love’s peace and joy.

Today we will remind ourselves that we live in God’s Love and His Will is that we have all of His peace and joy. We walk with a mighty Companion, Whose Light shines away the darkness of separation and shows us the Reality of Love that is our Home.
