Learning of Our Unity in Love

That you and your brother are joined is your salvation; the gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness, yes. And yet what madness sees must be dispelled by reason. Reason assures you Heaven is what you want, and all you want. Listen to Him Who speaks with reason, and brings your reason into line with His. Be willing to let [Holy Spirit’s] reason be the means by which He would direct you how to leave insanity behind. Hide not behind insanity in order to escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness.

You are your brother’s savior. He is yours. [Holy Spirit’s reason] speaks happily indeed of this. This gracious plan was given love by Love. And what Love plans is like Itself in this: Being united, It [Love] would have you learn what you must be. And being one with [Love], it must be given you to give what It has given, and gives still. Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is given you to give your brother, and learn with him what has been given both of you. To give is no more blessed than to receive. But neither is it less. (A Course in Miracles, T-21.VI.8-9. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)

When we accept the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we are accepting the Voice of Reason. The Holy Spirit speaks to us as God’s messenger of truth. Thus His reason will always lead us to the truth that we remain united in God’s Love. Separation could never be real.

The ego has its own version of reason but it is based on the insane idea that separation (sin) could be real. Reason based on insanity leads only to insanity. When we choose to accept the Holy Spirit’s guidance we choose God’s plan for our salvation, because we choose reason based on truth. The Voice of Reason is always eternally in our minds, given us by our Creator in answer to the insane thought of separation.

Today we practice opening our mind and heart to the Holy Spirit’s lessons that teach us we are Love, united with the Love of God. With His help we will see this Love everywhere.
