Yesss this one today is super golden! So many of us do the shame, blame, guilt game- including me! Even as recently as last night I was shaming a brother that I believe had mistreated me, and wow I love that this passage came to me today to reveal to me the separation I have within being reflected onto my relationship with my brother! There is much work to be done friends!
Lets roll up our sleeves and be reminded of who we truly are….
Displacement always is maintained by the illusion that the source of guilt, from which attention is diverted, must be true; and must be fearful, or you would not have displaced the guilt onto what you believed to be less fearful.

No real relationship can rest on guilt, or even hold one spot of it to mar its purity.
-A Course in Miracles
And you forgot that real relationships are holy, and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the Holy Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure.
-A Course in Miracles
No one who would unite in any way with anyone for his individual salvation will find it in that strange relationship. It is not shared (with the Holy Spirit), and so it is not real.
-A Course in Miracles
Yet though they suffer, they will not look within and let it go… Their main concern is to perceive the source of guilt outside themselves, beyond their own control.
-A Course in Miracles
The past is not in you. Your weird associations to it have no meaning in the present. Yet you let them stand between you and your brothers, with whom you find no real relationships at all.
-A Course in Miracles
Use no relationship to hold you to the past, but with each one each day be born again.
-A Course in Miracles
For you must learn that guilt is always totally insane, and has no reason.
-A Course in Miracles
The purpose of Atonement is to dispel illusions, not to establish them as real and then forgive them.
-A Course in Miracles
Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it.
-A Course in Miracles
Now it is given you to heal and teach, to make what will be now.
-A Course in Miracles
When he has looked within and seen the radiance there, he will remember how much his Father loves him. And it will seem incredible that he ever thought his Father loved him not, and looked upon him as condemned.
-A Course in Miracles
The moment that you realize guilt is insane, wholly unjustified and wholly without reason, you will not fear to look upon the Atonement and accept it wholly.
-A Course in Miracles
Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your vision, and look past darkness to the holy place where you will see the light.
-A Course in Miracles
His Will is like His Father’s, and He offers mercy to every child of God, as He would have you do.
-A Course in Miracles
There is no fear in love, for love is guiltless.
-A Course in Miracles
Your guilt is without reason because it is not in the Mind of God, where you are. And this is reason, which the Holy Spirit would restore to you. He would remove only illusions. All else He would have you see. And in Christ’s vision He would show you the perfect purity that is forever within God’s Son.
-A Course in Miracles
You cannot enter into real relationships with any of God’s Sons unless you love them all and equally. Love is not special.
-A Course in Miracles
If you single out part of the Sonship for your love, you are imposing guilt on all your relationships and making them unreal. You can love only as God loves.
-A Course in Miracles
Seek not to love unlike Him, for there is no love apart from His. Until you recognize that this is true, you will have no idea what love is like.
-A Course in Miracles
No one who condemns a brother can see himself as guiltless and in the peace of God. If he is guiltless and in peace and sees it not, he is delusional, and has not looked upon himself.
-A Course in Miracles
No illusion that you have ever held against him has touched his innocence in any way. His shining purity, wholly untouched by guilt and wholly loving, is bright within you.
-A Course in Miracles
But look upon yourself, and gladness and appreciation for what you see will banish guilt forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of Your most holy Son, whom You have created guiltless forever.
-A Course in Miracles
Like you, my faith and my belief are centered on what I treasure. The difference is that I love onlywhat God loves with me, and because of this I treasure you beyond the value that you set on yourself, even unto the worth that God has placed upon you.
-A Course in Miracles
Alone we are all lowly, but together we shine with brightness so intense that none of us alone can even think of it.
-A Course in Miracles
See only praise of Him in what He has created, for He will never cease His praise of you. United in this praise we stand before the gates of Heaven where we will surely enter in our sinlessness. God loves you.
-A Course in Miracles
WOW y’all read this one:
My faith in you is as strong as all the love I give my Father. My trust in you is without limit, and without the fear that you will hear me not. I thank the Father for your loveliness, and for the many gifts that you will let me offer to the Kingdom in honor of its wholeness that is of God.
