To love my Father is to love His Son.
It does not matter what you seem to do within the world, it will not change the fact that you are God’s Son. The cloak of darkness that you seem to wear upon yourself while you reside within the world is merely an illusion. The darkness that you surround yourself with cannot hide the Light that you are forever. Your golden light will shine away all things forever and restore the mind of God’s Son to his rightful place.
You can deny the light within yourself for as long as you wish but it is not what you truly desire. Your vain imaginings within the illusion merely delays the discovery of the inevitable; that you are the Light of the world and you are God’s Son. Denial of this Light within yourself can only bring you pain. Surrender and acceptance of who you really are can only bring you light and joy.
When you allow the Light to come into the awareness of your mind, you allow peace, happiness and joy to fill you at the same time. This healing Light within you will begin to restore you to your rightful place within Heaven very quickly, because the Call of God has been answered. You have forgiven the world and the Light will come and restore Heaven to Its rightful place within your mind.

******************
Since you’re here… …we have a small favor to ask. More people are reading our posts, listening to our audios and watching our videos than ever before but far fewer are donating for it. As an all-volunteer ministry, you can see why we need to ask for your help. MiraclesOne provides ACIM resources freely however it takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe in encouraging others to practically apply the Course principles in their lives – because it might just make the one difference in your life. If everyone who reads, listens or watches and likes what we offer helps to pay for it we can continue to afford our expenses and keep our resources FREE to all ACIM Students. Monthly Donors receive free gifts in appreciation for their support.
