A Course In Miracles – San Jose Karl J Vidt, ACIM Student/Teacher

ACIM T-24.VI Salvation from Fear

July 20, 2010

What is the purpose of the world we see?  Perhaps if we understand the purpose of the world we will begin to see the truth about who we really are.  Perhaps we will begin to understand how we are not so much a victim of the world.  Our mind may say we are a victim of the world we see, but it is our misunderstanding of the world we see that makes it seem like we are a victim.  The Course tells us we cannot be victims of the world we see.  It is impossible for any facet of creation by God to be anything less than whole.  God created us whole and One with God, so we can be nothing contrary to our reality.

The purpose of the world is nothing less than the healing of God’s One Child.  The one purpose of the world is the return to the full complete awareness of each and every one of us that we are God’s One Child, One with God.  We are whole, complete, and sinless.  The world is the collection of experiences and thoughts that come to our mind to remind us who we really are.  Each experience is an opportunity for each of us to see with Spirit’s eyes rather than the body’s eyes.  Each encounter is an opportunity to see each one’s true nature as God created them rather than something untrue.  As we see each one as they really are, we see our true nature, we see ourselves as we really are and as God created us.

The world’s seeming laws of separation, lack, and victimization are nothing more than illusion.  Yet our belief in those laws hold us captive, hold us limited, and hold us from the freedom of the awareness of who we really are.  Every moment of every hour and day we have the opportunity to make a choice whether to see with Spirit’s eyes or with unseeing eyes of separation.  Each relationship that comes our way is an opportunity to make a correct choice in how we see each other.  Are we willing to step away from the busy thoughts we become so accustomed to and that we choose to believe as true and let the Holy Spirit show us what is real in the stillness of the present moment?

As we allow ourselves to see beyond the specialness we made up in our relationships to the Truth therein, we free each other from the laws of separation, lack and victimization and find the truth about ourselves.  We begin to understand how each experience in our lives, no matter what its form, has the higher purpose of returning us to the awareness of who we really are.  Can you imagine a world where all see each other in the Truth of who they really are?  Yes it is possible.  That is the purpose the Holy Spirit gives the world we made up from our belief in our thoughts about our experiences.  Take a step back.  Allow the stillness of Spirit to come over you.  You will begin to see the real purpose of the world.  It is the discovery of our peace, innocence, and freedom.  We are One in the bond of God’s unconditional love.
