ACIM Workbook Lesson 58

< Previous Lesson                                                              Next Lesson >


These ideas are for review today:
1. (36My holiness envelops everything I see.
From my holiness does the perception of the real world come. Having forgiven, I no longer see myself as guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the truth about me. Seen through under­standing eyes, the holiness of the world is all I see, for I can picture only the thoughts I hold about myself.
2. (37My holiness blesses the world.
The perception of my holiness does not bless me alone. Every­one and everything I see in its light shares in the joy it brings to me. There is nothing that is apart from this joy, because there is nothing that does not share my holiness. As I recognize my holi­ness, so does the holiness of the world shine forth for everyone to see.
3. (38There is nothing my holiness cannot do.
My holiness is unlimited in its power to heal, because it is un­limited in its power to save. What is there to be saved from ex­cept illusions? And what are all illusions except false ideas about myself? My holiness undoes them all by asserting the truth about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with God Himself, all idols vanish.
4. (39My holiness is my salvation.
Since my holiness saves me from all guilt, recognizing my holiness is recognizing my salvation. It is also recognizing the salva­tion of the world. Once I have accepted my holiness, nothing can make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, everyone must share in my understanding, which is the gift of God to me and to the world.
5. (40I am blessed as a Son of God.
Herein lies my claim to all good and only good. I am blessed as a Son of God. All good things are mine, because God intended them for me. I cannot suffer any loss or deprivation or pain be­cause of Who I am. My Father supports me, protects me, and directs me in all things. His care for me is infinite, and is with me forever. I am eternally blessed as His Son.
