A COURSE IN MIRACLES®

Principles of Miracles (cont.)

35.  Miracles are expressions of love, but they may not always have observable effects.

36.  Miracles are examples of right thinking, aligning your perceptions with truth as God created it.

37.  A miracle is a correction introduced into false thinking by me (Christ).  It acts as a catalyst, breaking up erroneous perception and reorganizing it properly.  This places you under the Atonement principle, where perception is healed.  Until this has occurred, knowledge of the Divine Order is impossible.

38.  The Holy Spirit is the mechanism of miracles.   He recognizes both God's creations and your illusions.  He separates the true from the false by His ability to perceive totally rather than selectively.

39.  The miracle dissolves error because the Holy Spirit identifies error as false or unreal.  This is the same as saying that by perceiving light, darkness automatically disappears.

40.  The miracles acknowledges everyone as your brother and mine.  It is a way of perceiving the universal mark of God.
