Lesson 295: The Holy Spirit Looks Through Me Today.

Send Hope a Text

The Holy Spirit looks through me today. What happens when we surrender personal sight and allow Christ's vision to see through our eyes? Lesson 295 from A Course in Miracles reveals the transformative power of this practice.

When we offer our eyes as instruments for Christ's vision, perception shifts from condemnation to blessing. This isn't about denying what we think we see, but dissolving the fear-based interpretations we project onto the world. The lesson reminds us that "fear appears in many different forms, but love is one"—a powerful recognition that simplifies our complicated perceptions.

One of the most profound revelations shared is that "life doesn't have an opposite." Death isn't the counterpart to life but simply "the absence of truth." This radical perspective challenges our fundamental beliefs about existence and reveals how deeply fear has infiltrated our perception. Peace doesn't come from withdrawing from life but from allowing love to reinterpret everything life presents.

The lesson presents vision as a gift exchange: "Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be given me." We give the eyes of Christ and receive the peace of Christ in return. What we extend through perception, we strengthen in ourselves—extending judgment reinforces judgment within, while extending love strengthens love.

Whenever judgment arises, we're invited to pause and ask, "How would Christ see this?" and wait for the softening. This simple practice trains the mind to default to forgiveness rather than condemnation, gradually revealing a world redeemed through transformed vision. As we allow the Holy Spirit to look through us today, we participate in the healing of perception that blesses not just ourselves but everyone in our world.

Ready to experience this shift in perception? Practice pausing whenever judgment arises today and ask to see through Christ's eyes instead. Notice how your world transforms when you choose love over fear.
