Chapter 8.5
The Undivided Will of the Sonship
Â
Can you be separated from your identification and be at peace? Dissociation
is not a solution; it is a delusion. The delusional believe that truth will assail
them, and they do not recognize it because they prefer the delusion. Judging
truth as something they do not want, they perceive their illusions which
block knowledge. Help them by offering them your unified mind on their
behalf, as I am offering you mine on behalf of yours. Alone we can do
nothing, but together our minds fuse into something whose power is far
beyond the power of its separate parts. By not being separate, the Mind of
God is established in ours and as ours. This Mind is invincible because it is
undivided.
Â
The undivided will of the Sonship is the perfect creator, being wholly in the
likeness of God, Whose Will it is. You cannot be exempt from it if you are
to understand what it is and what you are. By the belief that your will is
separate from mine, you are exempting yourself from the Will of God
which is yourself. Yet to heal is still to make whole. Therefore, to heal is to
unite with those who are like you, because perceiving this likeness is to
recognize the Father. If your perfection is in him and only in him, how can
you know it without recognizing him? The recognition of God is the
recognition of yourself. There is no separation of God and his creation. You
will realize this when you understand that there is no separation between
your will and mine. Let the Love of God shine upon you by your acceptance
of me. My reality is yours and his. By joining your mind with mine you are
signifying your awareness that the Will of God is One.
Â
God’s Oneness and ours are not separate, because his oneness encompasses
ours. To join with me is to restore his power to you because we are sharing
it. I offer you only the recognition of his power in you, but in that lies all
truth. As we unite, we unite with him. Glory be to the union of God and his
holy sons! All glory lies in Them because They are united. The miracles we
do bear witness to the Will of the Father for his son, and to our joy in
uniting with his will for us.
Â
When you unite with me you are uniting without the ego, because I have
renounced the ego in myself and therefore cannot unite with yours. Our
union is therefore the way to renounce the ego in you. The truth in both of
us is beyond the ego. Our success in transcending the ego is guaranteed by
God, and I share this confidence for both of us and all of us. I bring God’s
peace back to all his children because I received it of him for us all. Nothing
can prevail against our united wills because nothing can prevail against
God’s.
Â
Would you know the Will of God for you? Ask it of me who know it for
you and you will find it. I will deny you nothing, as God denies me nothing.
Â
Ours is simply the journey back to God Who is our home. Whenever fear
intrudes anywhere along the road to peace, it is because the ego has
attempted to join the journey with us and cannot do so. Sensing defeat and
angered by it, the ego regards itself as rejected and becomes retaliative. You
are invulnerable to its retaliation because I am with you. On this journey
you have chosen me as your companion instead of the ego. Do not attempt
to hold on to both, or you will try to go in different directions and will lose
the way.
Â
The ego’s way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The Holy Spirit has one
direction for all minds, and the one He taught me is yours. Let us not love
his direction through illusions, for only illusions of another direction can
obscure the one for which God’s Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the
ego the power to interfere with the journey. It has none, because the journey
is the way to what is true. Leave all illusions behind, and reach beyond all
attempts of the ego to hold you back. I go before you because I am beyond
the ego. Reach, therefore, for my hand because you want to transcend the
ego. My strength will never be wanting, and if you choose to share it you
will do so. I give it willingly and gladly, because I need you as much as you
need me.
