We Are Safe in the Love of God

Forgiveness ends all suffering and loss.

“Forgiveness paints a picture of a world where suffering is over, loss becomes impossible and anger makes no sense. ²Attack is gone, and madness has an end. ³What suffering is now conceivable? ⁴What loss can be sustained? ⁵The world becomes a place of joy, abundance, charity and endless giving. ⁶It is now so like to Heaven that it quickly is transformed into the light that it reflects. ⁷And so the journey which the Son of God began has ended in the light from which he came.

Father, we would return our minds to You. ²We have betrayed them, held them in a vise of bitterness, and frightened them with thoughts of violence and death. ³Now would we rest again in You, as You created us. (A Course in Miracles, W-249. See also ACIM Lesson 249 Insights.)

Do we want to be happy and peaceful? Do we want to know that we are loved and safe? Forgiveness clears the way for this to be a constant state of mind. We know we live in Love.

But when we believe we are the ego with a separate identity, we do not know that we are in Love. We see ourselves as disconnected from God’s Love. We have chosen specialness in place of Love’s oneness. It is this choice we need to forgive. This is how we welcome the Love the ego denies. The quest for specialness is replaced by the blessing of knowing we are eternally safe in the Love of God.
