Our Holiness Sees Only Love

Your holiness reverses all the laws of the world. ²It is beyond every restriction of time, space, distance and limits of any kind. ³Your holiness is totally unlimited in its power because it establishes you as a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator.

Through your holiness the power of God is made manifest. ²Through your holiness the power of God is made available. ³And there is nothing the power of God cannot do. ⁴Your holiness, then, can remove all pain, can end all sorrow, and can solve all problems. ⁵It can do so in connection with yourself and with anyone else. ⁶It is equal in its power to help anyone because it is equal in its power to save anyone.

If you are holy, so is everything God created. ²You are holy because all things He created are holy.

…search your mind for any sense of loss or unhappiness of any kind as you see it.…

⁵In the situation involving _________ in which I see myself, there is nothing that my holiness cannot do.
⁶In the situation involving _________ in which _________ sees himself, there is nothing my holiness cannot do. (A Course in Miracles, W-38.1:1–3:2;4:1,5-6. See also ACIM Lesson 38 Insights.)

The ego is the wish for limitations. It made the body as a means for limiting perception to seeing nothing that is real. Our true Identity remains unchanged by the ego and its limitations.

Our Identity as God’s Son shares the Identity of our Creator. All of His strength, His Love and His holiness are ours, for we remain united with our Father. Anything that disturbs our peace and joy is simply the effect of misidentification with the ego.

That is why there is nothing our holiness cannot do. As we accept our true Identity, our minds are healed. We see with Christ’s vision to recognize the holiness that surrounds us and is in us.

We Are Safe in God’s Love

God does not change His Mind about you, for He is not uncertain of Himself. …³He created you for Himself, but He gave you the power to create for yourself so you would be like Him. ⁴That is why your mind is holy. ⁵Can anything exceed the Love of God? ⁶Can anything, then, exceed your will? ⁷Nothing can reach you from beyond it because, being in God, you encompass everything. ⁸Believe this, and you will realize how much is up to you. ⁹When anything threatens your peace of mind, ask yourself, “Has God changed His Mind about me?” ¹⁰Then accept His decision, for it is indeed changeless, and refuse to change your mind about yourself. ¹¹God will never decide against you, or He would be deciding against Himself. (A Course in Miracles, T-10.in.3:1,3-11. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

Love does not condemn. God’s Love for us, His Son, remains eternally changeless. He created His Son to be like Himself — eternally Love and extending Love without limit. He does not change His Mind about His creation. Nothing can exceed His Love.

When anything disturbs our peace of mind, we need to remind ourselves that God has not changed His Mind about us. He will never decide against His creation, which remains eternally one with Himself. Today we remind ourselves that we are the Love of God.

Calling on the Strength of God in Us

Perception is consistent. ²What you see reflects your thinking. ³And your thinking but reflects your choice of what you want to see. ⁴Your values are determiners of this, for what you value you must want to see, believing what you see is really there. ⁵No one can see a world his mind has not accorded value. ⁶And no one can fail to look upon what he believes he wants.

Fear has made everything you think you see. ²All separation, all distinctions, and the multitude of differences you believe make up the world. ³They are not there. ⁴Love’s enemy has made them up. ⁵Yet love can have no enemy, and so they have no cause, no being and no consequence. ⁶They can be valued, but remain unreal.

It is impossible to see two worlds which have no overlap of any kind. ²Seek for the one; the other disappears. ³But one remains. ⁴They are the range of choice beyond which your decision cannot go. ⁵The real and the unreal are all there are to choose between, and nothing more than these.

⁵It is impossible to see two worlds. ⁶Let me accept the strength God offers me and see no value in this world, that I may find my freedom and deliverance. (A Course in Miracles, W-130.1;4:1-6;5;8:5. See also ACIM Lesson 130 Insights.)

We can change our mind about the world. The strength of God in us supports our awakening. We can believe our perceptions of the world show us what is real. With this belief we seem to be its victim and in need of constant defense to protect the little corner we claim as our own.

The Strength of God in us can show us a world in which we are Love, loving and loved. This Strength goes with us wherever we go. When we are willing to accept it, we see the real world which blesses us with kindness and joy. This is the Home we seek but which we never left in truth.

We call upon this Strength today to help us recognize the misperceptions that bring us fear and guilt. It will show us the reality of Love behind the world’s dark shadows. We will see a world of Light and Love. We will see peace and happiness where fear and guilt once occupied our mind.

Letting Go of Belief in Differences

Let me forget my brother’s past today.

This is the thought that leads the way to You, and brings me to my goal. ²I cannot come to You without my brother. ³And to know my Source, I first must recognize what You created one with me. ⁴My brother’s is the hand that leads me on the way to You. ⁵His sins are in the past along with mine, and I am saved because the past is gone. ⁶Let me not cherish it within my heart, or I will lose the way to walk to You. ⁷My brother is my savior. ⁸Let me not attack the savior You have given me. ⁹But let me honor him who bears Your Name, and so remember that It is my own.

Forgive me, then, today. ²And you will know you have forgiven me if you behold your brother in the light of holiness. ³He cannot be less holy than can I, and you can not be holier than he. (A Course in Miracles, W-288. See also ACIM Lesson 288 Insights.)

The key to remembering God is to remember what He created one with me as His Son. To see my brother as one with me, I must see him without the past. This is the vision forgiveness brings. It forgives myself along with my brother. We are not different. We were created one and the same. This is why all forgiveness is really forgiveness of our false beliefs about ourselves.

Misperceptions are always the result of believing we are a separate identity. Whether it appears we are forgiving a brother or ourselves, the effect is the same. For it is letting go of a false image that stands as a veil between our awareness and the truth that we are Love and nothing else.

Today we welcome the Holy Spirit’s help to let go of the past and let the Light of Love fill our world.

Our Eternal Guide to Remember Love

This course is a beginning, not an end. ²Your Friend goes with you. ³You are not alone. ⁴No one who calls on Him can call in vain. ⁵Whatever troubles you, be certain that He has the answer, and will gladly give it to you, if you simply turn to Him and ask it of Him. ⁶He will not withhold all answers that you need for anything that seems to trouble you. ⁷He knows the way to solve all problems, and resolve all doubts. ⁸His certainty is yours. ⁹You need but ask it of Him, and it will be given you.

³You will be told exactly what God wills for you each time there is a choice to make. ⁴And He will speak for God and for your Self, thus making sure that hell will claim you not, and that each choice you make brings Heaven nearer to your reach. (A Course in Miracles,W-ep.1;5:3-4)

We are on a journey of a lifetime. It leads us to awareness that in truth, we are timeless, eternally at one with God. He has not left us on our own to wander through a wilderness of illusions. We have a Guide to lead us to our awakening. The path seems to wander because we have been following a guide that does not know the truth of What we are.

But God has given us a Guide Whose function is to lead us to Reality. His message is that we are Love and nothing else. He offers us correction of the misguided paths we have followed. As we follow God’s Voice, we learn to see past the false images to the Light of Love in which we live and have our being. This journey without distance leads us from darkness to Light, from fear to Love.

We are grateful that we have been given the means to awaken to the Self God created as His Son.

The Love We Are Does Not Change

I seek a future different from the past.

From new perception of the world there comes a future very different from the past. ²The future now is recognized as but extension of the present. ³Past mistakes can cast no shadows on it, so that fear has lost its idols and its images, and being formless, it has no effects. ⁴Death will not claim the future now, for life is now its goal, and all the needed means are happily provided. ⁵Who can grieve or suffer when the present has been freed, extending its security and peace into a quiet future filled with joy?

Father, we were mistaken in the past, and choose to use the present to be free. ²Now do we leave the future in Your Hands, leaving behind our past mistakes, and sure that You will keep Your present promises, and guide the future in their holy light. (A Course in Miracles, W-314. See also ACIM Lesson 314 Insights.)

All our sadness, fear and guilt come from guilty thoughts about the past. We believe that what happened in the past determines our future. We expect there to be future consequences from past mistakes. This belief traps us in a cycle of guilt and fear.

But the past is gone. Only our wish to keep the past in our mind gives them influence over our present state. The ego dwells on the past and projects a future that repeats the past. Now we need to remember that the past is gone. We have no need to bring the past to the present. In the present is God’s promise that we dwell in the oneness of Love forever. Love does not change. It is all that is real.

As we learn to forgive our wish to bring the past to the present we welcome the changeless Love that is ours now and forever. In this remembrance, we find peace and happiness.

Learning to See with Eyes of Love

⁷When you have learned to accept what you are, you will make no more gifts to offer to yourself, for you will know you are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. ⁸But you will gladly give, having received. ⁹The host of God need not seek to find anything.

If you are wholly willing to leave salvation to the plan of God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation will be given you. ²Yet think not you can substitute your plan for His. ³Rather, join with me in His, that we may release all those who would be bound, proclaiming together that the Son of God is host to Him. ⁴Thus will we let no one forget what you would remember. ⁵And thus will you remember it.

Call forth in everyone only the remembrance of God, and of the Heaven that is in him. ²For where you would have your brother be, there will you think you are. ³Hear not his appeal to hell and littleness, but only his call for Heaven and greatness. (A Course in Miracles, T-15.III.10:7–12:3. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

There is no greater gift than the eternal, all encompassing, limitless Love God has given His Son. Likewise, the greatest gift we can give is to extend His Love to all. By this giving, we know What we have received.

Whenever we feel lack of any kind, it is only because we have rejected God’s gift. It manifests in our world as loneliness, sadness, fear and guilt. As we let the Holy Spirit teach us how to forgive our rejection of God’s Love, we recognize the gift we have been given. We realize we are complete in His Love and need nothing else.

Today we ask the Holy Spirit to help us see with the eyes of Love. Thus will we see Love and know that we are Love.
