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

ACIM T-22.I Salvation and the Holy Relationship

November 17, 2009

From the Manual for Teachers:  “There is no need for help to enter Heaven for you have never left.”  We try so hard to achieve something we already have.  And we expend so much effort trying to become someone we already are.  But we have forgotten who, what, and where we are so we strive and strive and sometimes despair.  We are so busy trying that we miss what is already there, what is already within us.  We miss the peace, joy and love that is radiating from us and flowing through us.  We are happy and we don’t know it!

Remember the song and dance we did as children?  “If you’re happy and you know it clap you hands.”  And we clapped our hands and were happy.  Oh, if we could just return to our childhood.  We hadn’t a care in the world.  What happened to that innocence?  Nothing happened to it at all.  It is still who we are.  We just got distracted and involved in “more serious” ideas.  And thus forgot about our innocence and our happiness and fun. But, we never left Heaven.

But now we embark on our journey.  We begin the trek to the awareness of what is real.  God has provided help for us along this journey.  The Holy Spirit is there for us.  Vision is there for us.  The Voice for God is there for us.  And we are there for each other, for we are truly all One.  God pulls out all the stops, for our success is guaranteed!  Let go.  Let go of everything.  Let all that God has given us sort it all out and show us the way.  We are the One creation of God that is pure, holy, and at home in the Heaven we never left.  Clap you hands and know you are happy.
