Accepting the Christ Within

The Christ in you is very still. ²He knows where you are going, and He leads you there in gentleness and blessing all the way. ³His Love for God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within yourself.

⁶His perfect lack of specialness He offers you, that you may save all living things from death, receiving from each one the gift of life that your forgiveness offers to your Self. ⁷The sight of Christ is all there is to see. ⁸The song of Christ is all there is to hear. ⁹The hand of Christ is all there is to hold. ¹⁰There is no journey but to walk with Him.

You who would be content with specialness, and seek salvation in a war with love, consider this: The holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you, to offer you your own completion. ²What is His is yours because in your completion is His Own. ³He Who willed not to be without His Son could never will that you be brotherless. ⁴And would He give a brother unto you except he be as perfect as yourself, and just as like to Him in holiness as you must be?

⁴[Christ] will exchange His certainty for all your doubts, if you agree that He is One with you, and that this Oneness is endless, timeless, and within your grasp because your hands are His.  (A Course in Miracles, T-24.V.6:1-3;7:6–8:4;9:4. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

The Christ within is certain that His Identity is Love and nothing else. He is our true Self, which we deny when we choose specialness in place of Love’s oneness. The result of this choice is a life of chaos and conflict, because we identify with illusions which are inherently unstable.

We lay illusions down and quiet our mind to welcome Christ’s presence in our mind. In quiet we receive His vision which shows us a forgiven world. We recognize our unity with every brother. Uncertainty and conflict are replaced by the sure reflection of our Father’s changeless Love in everyone we meet or even think of.
