14. What Am I?
1. I am God’s Son, complete and healed and whole, shining in the reflection of His Love. ²In me is His creation sanctified and guaranteed eternal life. ³In me is love perfected, fear impossible, and joy established without opposite. ⁴I am the holy home of God Himself. ⁵I am the Heaven where His Love resides. ⁶I am His holy Sinlessness Itself, for in my purity abides His Own.
2. Our use for words is almost over now. ²Yet in the final days of this one year we gave to God together, you and I, we found a single purpose that we shared. ³And thus you joined with me, so what I am are you as well. ⁴The truth of what we are is not for words to speak of nor describe. ⁵Yet we can realize our function here, and words can speak of this and teach it, too, if we exemplify the words in us.
3. We are the bringers of salvation. ²We accept our part as saviors of the world, which through our joint forgiveness is redeemed. ³And this, our gift, is therefore given us. ⁴We look on everyone as brother, and perceive all things as kindly and as good. ⁵We do not seek a function that is past the gate of Heaven. ⁶Knowledge will return when we have done our part. ⁷We are concerned only with giving welcome to the truth.
4. Ours are the eyes through which Christ’s vision sees a world redeemed from every thought of sin. ²Ours are the ears that hear the Voice for God proclaim the world as sinless. ³Ours the minds that join together as we bless the world. ⁴And from the oneness that we have attained we call to all our brothers, asking them to share our peace and consummate our joy.
5. We are the holy messengers of God who speak for Him, and carrying His Word to everyone whom He has sent to us, we learn that it is written on our hearts. ²And thus our minds are changed about the aim for which we came, and which we seek to serve. ³We bring glad tidings to the Son of God, who thought he suffered. ⁴Now is he redeemed. ⁵And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand open before him, he will enter in and disappear into the Heart of God.
Lesson 351
My sinless brother is my guide to peace. My sinful brother is my guide to pain. And which I choose to see I will behold.
1. Who is my brother but Your holy Son? ²And if I see him sinful I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son of God; alone and friendless in a fearful world. ³Yet this perception is a choice I make, and can relinquish. ⁴I can also see my brother sinless, as Your holy Son. ⁵And with this choice I see my sinlessness, my everlasting Comforter and Friend beside me, and my way secure and clear. ⁶Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your Voice. ⁷For He alone gives judgment in Your Name.
