Day 74 and 75

Text:

The Holy Spirit's Plan of Forgiveness

"Atonement is for all, because it is the way to undo the belief that anything is for you alone. To forgive is to overlook...Accept as true only what your brother is, if you would know yourself...The plan is not yours because of your limited ideas about what you are. This sense of limitation is where all errors arise. The way to undo them, therefore is not of you but for you. The Atonement is a lesson in sharing, which is given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The Holy Spirit merely reminds you of the natural use of your abilities...Forgiveness that is learned of me does not use fear to undo fear...Behold, my child, reality is here. It belongs to you and me and God, and is perfectly satisfying to all of Us. Only this awareness heals, because it is the awareness of truth.

Workbook:

Lesson 74

"There is no will but God's"

Since we are one with all, with God, then we do have a will, though it is of course not the will of our ego but rather our divine will - the will of the realization of truth; Enlightenment.

Lesson 75

"The Light has come."

We are already "there." We are at peace, and everything is as it should be, though the ego and super-ego would have us believe otherwise.

Forgiveness. I understand.

Day 71

Text:
Chapter 9

The Acceptance of the Atonement

The Acceptance of Reality

"Fear of the Will of God is one of the strangest beliefs the human mind has ever made. It could not possibly have occured unless the mind were already profoundly split, making it possible for it to be afrait of what it really is. Reality cannot 'threaten' anything but illusions, since reality can only uphold the truth."

Workbook:
Lesson 71

"Only God's plan for salvation will work."

Oh?

Day 69

Text:
The Body as Means or Ends

Day 68

Text:
The Body as Means of Communication

"Attack is always physical. When attack in any form enters your mind you are equating yourself with a body, since this is the ego's interpretation of the body."

"Love holds no grievances"

Forgiveness. Again.
