Commentary on ACIM Lesson 303

© 2010 Rev. David Seacord

What allows the holy Christ to be born in us? Only our sincere invitation. What stops our willingness to make this invitation?

It is perhaps better to not answer that, but rather to keep the question close, and ask it often, for a question's purpose is to guide a quest. The specific answers will certainly change with the situation, but if allowed to teach us, they will help us see who we are not.

Namaste,

David

Lesson 303

The holy Christ is born in me today.

Watch with me, angels, watch with me today. Let all God's holy Thoughts surround me, and be still with me while Heaven's Son is born. Let earthly sounds be quiet, and the sights to which I am accustomed disappear. Let Christ be welcomed where He is at home. And let Him hear the sounds He understands, and see but sights that show His Father's Love. Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is born again in me today.

Your Son is welcome, Father. He has come to save me from the evil self I made. He is the Self that You have given me. He is but what I really am in truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my Self as You created me. It is not Christ that can be crucified. Safe in Your Arms let me receive Your Son.
