ACIM T-23.II The Laws of Chaos

March 30, 2010

We have chosen to live by the “laws of chaos” in this world.  We certainly don’t believe we chose them because we have believed that they are real.  A lifetime of learning and rationale has gone into the development of these laws.  All that our parents, teachers, and religious leaders have taught us went into supporting and strengthening our belief in these laws.  We have explained all of our life experiences with these laws, doing our best to explain each experience using these laws, even when they don’t quite fit.

To believe in these laws and explain our life experiences by them, we have had to look away from the truth about us and God.  To try to fit the Oneness of Creation and the unconditional love of God into the laws of chaos is impossible.  So we have made up ideas about God that reinforce what we have learned and made up.  We made up the idea of a wrathful God.  We made up the idea that we could fall short of God’s plan for us.  We made up the idea that there is such a thing as hate, attack, and separation.  The whole premise we built the laws of chaos on is untrue, an illusion.  And so it is chaotic.  It always seems to be a mess. That is because we never think to look to God, to Spirit, to Truth when we are looking for any kind of explanation.

We forget that we carry within the depths of our being God’s Divine nature, that we are created and sustained by God’s love.  Divine order is within us.  We can look at all we experience differently.  We can let go of our belief in the laws of chaos.  We can release our need to control and let Spirit show us the laws of Love and Truth.  What a different picture we see when we see with the eyes of Spirit.  We see the mistaken ideas that keep us locked in the unawareness of who we really are.  We understand that all that is real is holy and all that is not falls away when we begin to let go of our belief in it, our attachment to the idea.

God always sees our true essence.  God always sees us One in Spirit.  God always sees our holiness and our innocence.  God always showers us with love and blessing.  It is our choice to live from the awareness of God’s plan, or from a belief in the laws of chaos.  What choice do you make today?  Will you live in the Love of God or the laws of chaos?  It is your choice.  Choose Love today, and every day thereafter.
