ACIM T-18.III Light In the Dream

August 29, 2017

What is our true desire?  Is it not to be whole?  We want, more than anything else, to be whole, complete, content and happy.  We have set our desire, and allowed Spirit to guide us in that desire, for we know it is found within us where Spirit dwells.  We have opened ourselves to the light within us and we now are open to the idea that we share that light with each other.  That light is strong, yet it grows in strength as we join in Oneness.  We have glimpsed the holy instant, even carried it in our life.  We have experienced that instant when all that is not real drops away and we know, in this moment, that we are complete.  We look to our relationships and see them differently.  We begin to see the deep connection within them and we see our true holy Self reflected in each One.  We are the light workers that bring the light of truth to the world.  What a glorious mission this is.  What a holy purpose this is.

You who are now the bringer of salvation have the function of bringing light to darkness.  The darkness in you has been brought to light.  Carry it back to darkness, from the holy instant to which you brought it.  We are made whole in our desire to make whole.  Let not time worry you, for all the fear that you and another experience is really past.  Time has been readjusted to help us do, together, what your separate pasts would hinder.  You have gone past fear, for no two minds can join in the desire for love without love’s joining them.   T-18.III.7:1-7

Be willing to allow the light within to shine into our waking dream.  It illuminates our mind.  It shines away as much of the darkness we harbor as we will allow.  Allow Spirit to guide that light to the ideas and beliefs we hold so dear.  Have no fear that anything real will be taken away.  What is real will stand strong in the light and remain while anything not real will simply fade into nothingness.  Choose to leave the darkness behind.  Follow the light into the realm of Heaven.  We will find Heaven, even in this world, as we allow our mind to be guided by Spirit.  All we see and experience has another meaning that Spirit guides us toward.  We can see beyond the appearance of all we come across in this world to the real meaning beyond its appearance.    As we learn in lesson 61, We are the light of the world.  Let that light shine.

Heaven is joined with you in your advance to Heaven.  When such great lights have joined with you to give the little spark of your desire the power of Source, can you remain in darkness?  You and another are coming home together, after a long and meaningless journey that you undertook apart, and that led nowhere.  You have found another, and you will light each other’s way.  And from this light will the Great Rays extend back into darkness and forward unto Source, to shine away the past and so make room for Source’s eternal Presence, in which everything is radiant in the light.   T-18.III.8:3-7

The Great Rays are shining within you now.  Recognize them!  Allow these Great Rays to shine away the darkness you think you see around you.  The darkness is not real.  Once you allow yourself to look beyond what appears to be darkness, you will see the blessed light of your holy Self in Oneness with all of creation.  Yes, allow the Great Rays of light to shine into your waking dream of your relationships.  In that light is great peace and joy waiting in your eternity.  Awaken!
