God’s goodness is eternal and unchanging. However, our perception of this truth can become clouded by negative thoughts and experiences. This week at ACIM & More, we’ll explore how we can reconnect with our divine nature and experience God’s love more fully.

Recognising Our True Identity in God

When we engage in negative self-talk or harbour resentment towards others, we’re essentially denying our true nature as God’s creation. It’s crucial to recognize these patterns and understand that they don’t reflect our authentic selves.

The Power of the Holy Spirit

The Gospel of John reminds us of the Holy Spirit’s role:

“But I will send you the comforter from the Father. When he comes, he will give evidence about me. He is the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father.” – John 15:26

This divine presence serves as our guide back to truth and love.

Understanding the Atonement Principle

Lesson 162 from ACIM teaches us that “I am as God created me” and embodies the Atonement principle. This concept reveals that beyond our ego-driven thoughts, there exists another thought system in our minds – one aligned with divine truth.

The Ever-Present Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit, residing in our right mind, has been with us since the beginning of our perceived separation from God. It serves as a constant reminder of God’s love and a bridge back to our true home in Heaven.

God’s Eternal Love for His Creation

We are reminded of God’s unwavering love through this powerful statement:

“You are beloved of Me and I of you forever. Be you perfect as Myself, for you can never be apart from Me.” (T-28)

By recognising our true nature as God’s creation and embracing the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we can overcome ego-driven thoughts and reconnect with divine love. This journey of self-discovery leads us back to the peace and perfection that have always been within us.

ACIM Lesson 162. I am as God created me.

1. This single thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. ²From time to time we will repeat it, as we reach another stage in learning. ³It will mean far more to you as you advance. ⁴These words are sacred, for they are the words God gave in answer to the world you made. ⁵By them it disappears, and all things seen within its misty clouds and vaporous illusions vanish as these words are spoken. ⁶For they come from God.

2. Here is the Word by which the Son became his Father’s happiness, His Love and His completion. ²Here creation is proclaimed, and honored as it is. ³There is no dream these words will not dispel; no thought of sin and no illusion which the dream contains that will not fade away before their might. ⁴They are the trumpet of awakening that sounds around the world. ⁵The dead awake in answer to its call. ⁶And those who live and hear this sound will never look on death.

3. Holy indeed is he who makes these words his own; arising with them in his mind, recalling them throughout the day, at night bringing them with him as he goes to sleep. ²His dreams are happy and his rest secure, his safety certain and his body healed, because he sleeps and wakens with the truth before him always. ³He will save the world, because he gives the world what he receives each time he practices the words of truth.

4. Today we practice simply. ²For the words we use are mighty, and they need no thoughts beyond themselves to change the mind of him who uses them. ³So wholly is it changed that it is now the treasury in which God places all His gifts and all His Love, to be distributed to all the world, increased in giving; kept complete because its sharing is unlimited. ⁴And thus you learn to think with God. ⁵Christ’s vision has restored your sight by salvaging your mind.

5. We honor you today. ²Yours is the right to perfect holiness you now accept. ³With this acceptance is salvation brought to everyone, for who could cherish sin when holiness like this has blessed the world? ⁴Who could despair when perfect joy is yours, available to all as remedy for grief and misery, all sense of loss, and for complete escape from sin and guilt?

6. And who would not be brother to you now; you, his redeemer and his savior. ²Who could fail to welcome you into his heart with loving invitation, eager to unite with one like him in holiness? ³You are as God created you. ⁴These words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. ⁵The light is come today to bless the world. ⁶For you have recognized the Son of God, and in that recognition is the world’s.
