My thoughts* on ACIM Workbook Lesson 293, October 21, 2025. All Fear is Past and Only Love is Here

All fear is past and only love is here.

* I am being asked to center myself within in such a way that there is no doubt that from there is where I live.

* While caught in the mentality of separation from God and All That Is, we seek our definition and existence outside ourselves. In the words and trauma that our parents seem to be walking through, in the bullying and teasing of classmates who seek stability by causing another to fall, in the acceptance of the status quo of the culture, that can be nothing but a CULT outside of Heavenly Father, and do not question the foundation of their authority over our right to exist and express.

* We give unrealistic meaning to celebrity and peon. We open the door to those with ill intent to shove their insecurities onto us and prod us to pay the toll by dressing, smelling, and consuming what they have convinced us is for our best interest.

* This is not the foundation that Heavenly Father wants us to stand on.

* Even the story of He and His Son has been twisted to allow those who would feed off of fear and guilt.

* We all a single story or snapshot to cloud our view of the sunshine and glory that Heavenly Father places before us, inviting us to receive of the love and abundance that HIS presence offers.

* It is important for us to remember that “All fear is past and only love is here.” With this, we function from the INSIDE ~ Out.

1. All fear is past, because its source is gone, and all its thoughts gone with it.

* This is the result of the true forgiveness given to the original belief in separation from GOD and anything that promoted that ideology.

²Love remains the only present state, whose Source (* Heavenly Father) is here forever and forever.

³Can the world seem bright and clear and safe and welcoming, with all my past mistakes oppressing it, and showing me distorted forms of fear?

* REMEMBER, this entails all the faults that you see in the world that seem to be outside of you, as well as mistakes you think you have

made in this lifetime.

* I need to hear this again:

* * REMEMBER, this entails all the faults that you see in the world that seem to be outside of you, as well as mistakes you think you have made in this lifetime.

* Of course, I am “seeing” this with the body/image/mind of Christ, of which I am a part.

⁴Yet in the present love is obvious, and its effects apparent.

⁵All the world shines in reflection of its holy light, and I perceive a world forgiven at last.

* I see this under the masks of ‘correctness’ that hides the costume ego led mentality has strapped us into. Underneath it all is the truth of GOD’s witness and the LOVE that flows between the Father and the Son, accessible through SPIRIT within.

2. Father, let not Your holy world escape my sight today.

* Holy doesn’t fit here, in fact, HOLY does not fit in any vocabulary where truth resides.

* No one is ‘greater-than.’

* “The world where your presence is known,” would be sufficient.

²Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude the world is singing underneath the sounds of fear.

* THIS is such a beautiful sound. In your meditations, consider watching for it and let it fill you up.

³There is a real world which the present holds safe from all past mistakes.

* In the past fifty years, people have dared to cast this as a veil over the world that believes in separation instead of uncovering the negative impacts that belief in separation has given us.

* Thankfully, that construct of thought is losing its hold, and disruptions to the harmony and prosperity that Heavenly Father would have us exist in are being revealed and denounced as belonging to a society that knows itself because it knows its Creator and gives thanks to ALL THAT IS REAL.

⁴And I would see only this world before my eyes today.
