T. 27. II. 15 & 16. Jesus: “Correction is the function given to both you and your brother, but neither one of you alone. And when it is fulfilled it is shared, and must correct mistakes in you and him together. If it truly be correction, it cannot leave mistakes in one unhealed while setting the other free!
That outcome would bear witness to divided purpose, which can not be shared. And so it cannot be the goal in which the Holy Spirit sees His Own purpose. You can rest assured that He will not fulfill a function that He does not see and recognize as His. For only thus can He keep yours preserved intact, despite you and your brother’s separate views of what your function is. If He upheld ‘divided function,’ you would be lost indeed!
The Holy Spirit’s inability to see His goal divided, and thus distinct for each of you, is what keeps from you the awareness of His function, one which is not your own. And thus is healing given only by the Holy Spirit, to you and your brother whom he knows as one. Correction must be left to One Who knows correction and forgiveness are the same.
With ‘half a mind,’ the separate part that you perceive as yours, this is not understood. Leave, then, correction to the Mind that is united, ever functioning as one because it is not split in purpose, and because It conceives a single function as its only one. Here is the function given It conceived to be Its Own, and because it has been shared, is not apart from that function its Creator keeps.
In the Holy Spirit’s acceptance of this one function lies the means whereby your mind is unified. His single purpose unifies the ‘halves of you’ that you perceive as separate. And each forgives the other, that he may accept his other half as part of him.”
