ACIM T-27.VI The Witnesses To Sin

August 2, 2011

To what do we give power to in our life? What ideas and thoughts do we decide to believe are true? We very often give power and belief to that which is the loudest. that which seems most urgent, that which prompts the most feeling of fear. Or perhaps, sometimes, we give power and belief to that which is pleasurable enough to drown out the pain and fear we feel. In this way, both pain and pleasure serve the same purpose. The common purpose is to drown out, or at least keep us distracted from, the Voice for God.

What ideas we place our trust and beliefs in are the witnesses to who we think we are. Do we trust and believe in Truth or illusion? What ideas attest to our awareness of who we are? Illusion takes many forms and will invent any form that it thinks will distract us from the awareness of who we really are. And yet, for every witness that we make that says we are separate, that we are not One with God, Spirit shows us a new witness that attests to our holiness, to the Truth of who we really are. It’s our choice whenever we are wiling to make that choice.

This shift in perception is the miracle, it is the holy instant. It comes upon us at the moment we allow ourselves to see just a little differently. In that moment comes a peace and joy that runs deep within our being. The din of all the other witnesses fades away and the stillness of Spirit comes over us. We recognize the One we really are in this moment. We remember who we really are and realize the mistaken ideas we have given power to and believed in are simple mistaken and are gone.

In this moment is peace, joy, and love in our awareness. Love becomes the witness to our identity. In this miracle are we healed of our mistaken thoughts and ideas. We simply know who we really are without doubt. As we ourselves are healed in this manner, the whole world is also heeled, for in this miracle we share our healing with the world. Healing’s nature is to extend for it cannot be contained or limited. Amid the din of our false witnesses, listen for the Call of Spirit. Be just a little willing to let that Voice come and speak to you. Healing, the miracle must come. It bubbles up from deep with and fills your being with the Love of Spirit within. Let it be so.
