T. 21. VI. 7 – 9. Jesus: “Neither your brother nor yourself can be attacked alone, without effect upon the other. But neither can accept a miracle instead, without the other being blessed by it and healed of pain! Reason, like love, would reassure you, and seeks not to frighten you.
The power to heal the Son of God is given you because he is one with you, as you are one with him. You are responsible for how your brother sees himself! And reason tells you the ability is given you to change his whole mind, which is one with yours, in but an instant. And any instant that you choose serves to bring complete correction of his errors and make him whole.
The instant that you choose to let yourself be healed, in that same instant is his whole salvation seen complete with yours. Reason is given you to understand that this is so! For reason, kind as is the purpose for which it is the means, leads steadily away from madness, and toward the goal of truth. And here you will lay down the burden of denying truth. The burden of denying truth is what is terrible, and not the truth.
That you and your brother are already joined is your salvation; the gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear! Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness, you say ‘yes!’ And yet what madness sees is dispelled by reason quickly. Reason assures you Heaven is what you want, and all you really do want!
Listen to Him Who speaks with reason, and brings your reason into line with His! Be willing to let reason be the means by which He would direct you how to leave insanity behind. Hide not behind insanity in order to escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds out to everyone, for all to look upon with gladness.
You are your brother’s savior. He is yours! Reason speaks happily indeed of this. This gracious plan was given love by Love. And what Love plans is like Itself in the following respect: Being united, It would have you learn what you must be. And being one with It, it must be given you to give what It has given, and gives still.
Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is given you to give your brother, and learn with him what has been given both of you! To give is no more blessed than to receive. But neither is it less!”
