Our true home is beyond this world we seem to be surrounded by. We never left our true home. We simply blocked our awareness of it. The world we seem to think is around us is a distorted version of the real world. There is nothing but Love in the real world. However, we have chosen to align with our egoic thought system in believing and viewing the world as it is not. The holy Ones around us in the real world are still around us in the world we seem to see. We just have chosen to see the distorted image of them our egoic thought system holds before us. They are truly just as holy as we are and, in reality, hold our holiness for us to see when we are ready.
You have the vision now to look past all illusions. It has been given you to see no thorns, no strangers and no obstacles to peace. The fear of Source [God] is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, knowing their savior stands beside them? With them, your vision has become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that Source [God] Itself could give. For what Source [God] gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The One Child [of God] looks unto you for their release. For you have asked for and been given the strength to look upon this final obstacle, and see no thorns nor nails to crucify the One Child [of God], and crown them ruler of death. T-20.II.7:1-8
This is a beautiful tribute from the Course to who we really are. Deep down within us we know this. Our brothers and sisters know this. Spirit knows this. There is no question about who we really are. Spirit asks us to release our attachment to the illusion we believe is who we are. We can tell who we believe we are by whether we offer each other thorns – attack – or lilies – love. The thorns are the obstacles to peace. Lilies welcome peace and love to rise within us to our awareness. Our true home beckons to us beyond the veil. It calls to us to step through the illusion of the veil to who and what we truly are.
There is no fear in love. Let us lift our eyes together, not in fear, but faith. There is no fear in us, for in our vision there are no illusions; only a pathway to the open door of Heaven, the home we share in quietness and where we live in gentleness and peace, as one together.
Would you not have your holy friend lead you there? Their innocence will light your way, offering you its guiding light and sure protection, and shining from the holy altar within them where you laid the lilies of forgiveness. Let them be to you the savior from illusions, and look on them with the new vision that looks upon the lilies and brings you joy. We go beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other’s way. The holiness that leads us is within us, as is our home. So will we find what we were meant to find by the One Who leads us. T-20.II.9:1-6
Look to the light within you. Look to the light within your friend. Your light has never waivered nor gone out. It shines brightly within you waiting for you to follow its light. You and your friend will gladly walk the way of innocence together, singing as you behold the open door of Heaven and recognize the home that called to you. Give joyously to your friend the freedom and strength to lead you there. And come before their holy altar where the strength and freedom wait, to offer and receive the bright awareness that leads you home. The lamp is lit in you for your friend. And, likewise, the lamp is lit in your friend for you. By the hands that gave it to them you shall be led past fear to love. Love is your true home. Choose love today – now – for your friend and for you. And choose to live in gentleness and peace, as one together.
