You Re
What is a sunbeam without the sun? A sunbeam would be non-existent without the sun. The power, light, warmth and energy it radiates is from the sun. Alone the sunbeam would be nothing.
Imagine the sunbeam turning into itself, withdrawing from the sun and seeing itself apart from all the other rays. What an absurd thought! That it could actually function or exist without its whole, without its greater part.
How could a sunbeam see itself seperate from the sun? Seperate from the whole? Seperate from the other sunbeams? And somehow believe that its magnificent power comes from itself?
And yet that is what we believe of ourselves. We live our life as though we are seperate to each other. That somehow our bodies keep us apart from God, the universe, and our brothers. The Course In Miracles states that "The body is a tiny fence around a little part of a glorious and complete idea. It draws a circle, infinitely small, around a very little segment of Heaven."
We believe our mind and thoughts have no effect on others. Without our whole we are non-existent. What we must realise is that we are powerful beyond measure! We are like that sunbeam, and we are here to shine, to love. Without God and our brothers, we are nothing. Together, is when we shine.
When we realise that we, like the sunbeam, are actually a slice of something so magnificent, we can then begin to tap into our greatness. Being a smaller part of the whole does not diminish us in any way. We possess the same qualities and gifts of the bigger part.
God created us like Himself. God is love, so we are love. We are His sunbeams. He shares his love through us. We are just as perfect as when He first created us. Nothing has changed. No matter what has happened in your life. You are perfect.
The Course reminds us of our immense power: "The sunbeam sparkles only in the sunlight". We have the power to shine always, now and forever. It goes on to say "yet in neither sun or ocean is the power that rests in you". Imagine that!
So today, see yourself as the extraordinary being you are. Feel your light, your love, God's love shining through you to all around you.
You are extraordinary!
Let it Shine.
