lesson 247
“Without forgiveness I will still be blind.”
Sin is the symbol of attack. Behold it anywhere, and I will suffer. For
forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ’s vision comes to me.
Let me accept what His sight shows me as the simple truth, and I am
healed completely. Brother, come and let me look on you. Your
loveliness reflects my own. Your sinlessness is mine. You stand
forgiven, and I stand with you.
“So would I look on everyone today. My brothers are Your Sons.Your
Fatherhood created them, and gave them all to me as part of You and my own
Self as well. Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope this day to
recognize my Self.”
lesson 248
“Whatever suffers is not part of me.”
I have disowned the truth. Now let me be as faithful in disowning
falsity.Whatever suffers is not part of me.What grieves is not myself.
What is in pain is but illusion in my mind.What dies was never living
in reality, and did but mock the truth about myself. Now I disown
self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of God. Now
am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and as he is.
“Father, my ancient love for You returns, and lets me love Your Son
again as well. Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered,
and my own. Now do I understand that they are one.”
