There is another one who is in our life at any time who we are meant to connect with. There are probably many ones in our life filling this purpose. This one may be with us for some time or this one may be someone passing by on the street, in the mall or anywhere we may choose to be. These ones are our savior. These ones are the ones in whom we find holiness. Our egoic thought system sees these ones as separate. They may appear challenging or they may appear friendly and helpful. However, we tend to not look beyond the surface as we interact with them. Our frame of reference is usually determined and viewed through the frame of egoic perception. If we only look at this surface perception we miss the one that lies just beyond our view. There is something deeper. There is something different. There is something there for us to see and share. This one is holy beyond that surface appearance we think we see. Without looking deeper and beyond appearances, we see merely a frame, a shell, that is a distortion of the reality of this one. There is another frame of reference that we are given in which to see this One as they really are.
Accept the One’s frame instead of yours, and you will see the masterpiece. Look at its loveliness, and understand the Mind that thought it, not in flesh and bones, but in a frame as lovely as itself. Its holiness lights up the sinlessness the frame of darkness hides, and casts a veil of light across the picture’s face which but reflects the light that shines from it to its Creator. Think not this face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame of death. The One kept it safe that you might look on it, and see the holiness that the One has given it. T-25.II.7:1-5
What we are seeing may be dark. It may seem to be nothing but darkness. But, within the darkness we see the savior from the dark, and understand our friend as their Creator’s Mind showing them to us. They will step from darkness as we look on them, and we will no longer see the dark. The darkness never touched them. And likewise the dark never toughed us. Their holiness mirrors ours. Their gentleness becomes our strength, and both of us look within, and see the holiness that is there. This one is the frame in which our holiness is set, for what our Creator gave them must have been given us. What matters is not what this one sees in us, but what we see in them. In this seeing is our vision shared. We look on the Christ in us instead of seeing darkness.
Salvation is the seeing of holiness within another and then recognizing it is also our own holiness. As we allow this shift in vision to change our mind, we see the holiness we share. Each and every one of us share this holiness in Oneness. We are holiness. We are light. Our light continues to shine whether we recognize it or not. It is our own holiness that shines forth from what appears to be darkness. It is the light we are and the light we share with each other. We have been seeking this light outside each other all this time when it was right there within us. We have not harmed ourselves by denying this light. We simply blocked our awareness of who we really are. Anytime we wish we can let that light shine again.
You and this one are the same, as the One is One and not divided in Their Will. And you must have one purpose, since the One gave the same to both of you. The One’s Will is brought together as you join in will, that you be made complete by offering completion to this one. See not in them the sinfulness they see, but give them honor that you may esteem yourself and them. To you and this one is given the power of salvation, that escape from darkness into light be yours to share; that you may see as one what never has been separate, nor apart from all the One’s Love as given equally. T-25.II.11:1-5
Look for the light in another. Look for holiness in another. Look beyond their appearance to the holiness and light beyond first glance. What we then see is not only another’s holiness but ours as well in our holy Oneness.
