*Believe* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxeV5NYSfWU

"Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
- Mark 9:23, Holy Bible, New Testament, NKJV

vs.:

"Miracles are seen in light."

"It is important to remember that miracles and vision necessarily go together.
This needs repeating, and frequent repeating. It is a central idea in your new
thought system, and the perception that it produces. The miracle is always there.
Its presence is not caused by your vision; its absence is not the result of your
failure to see. It is only your awareness of miracles that is affected. You will
see them in the light; you will not see them in the dark.

To you, then, light is crucial."
- A Course in Miracles, Workbook, "Miracles are seen in light" Lesson 91

The science isn't very clear. Is it belief, or is it light? Is it light, or is
it belief?

"The miracle establishes you dream a dream, and that its content is not true. This
is a crucial step in dealing with illusions. No one is afraid of them when he
perceives he made them up. The fear was held in place because he did not see that
he was author of the dream, and not a figure in the dream. He gives himself the
consequences that he dreams he gave his brother. And it is but this the dream has
put together and has offered him, to show him that his wishes have been done. Thus
does he fear his own attack, but sees it at another's hands. As victim, he is
suffering from its effects, but not their cause."
- A Course in Miracles, Chapter 28, Section 2

Beyond the Invisible:

"There is a light that this world cannot give. Yet you can give it, as it was
given you. And as you give it, it shines forth to call you from the world and
follow it. For this light will attract you as nothing in this world can do. And
you will lay aside the world and find another. This other world is bright with
love which you have given it. And here will everything remind you of your Father
and his holy Son. Light is unlimited, and spreads across this world in quiet joy.
All those you brought with you will shine on you, and you will shine on them in
gratitude because they brought you here. Your light will join with theirs in
power so compelling, that it will draw the others out of darkness as you look on
them."
- A Course in Miracles, Chapter 13, Section 6 (7pdf)
"The Guiltless World," "Finding the Present"

"While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are
not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are
not seen are eternal."
- Paul The Apostle, 2 Corinthians 4:18, New Testament, Holy Bible, NKJV

"Because of your Father's Love you can never forget him, for no one can forget
what God himself placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose it. A
Voice will answer every question you ask, and a vision will correct the perception
of everything you see. For what you have made invisible is the only truth, and
what you have not heard is the only Answer. God would reunite you with yourself,
and did not abandon you in your distress. You are waiting only for him, and do
not know it. Yet his memory shines in your mind and cannot be obliterated. It is
no more past than future, being forever always.

You have but to ask for this memory, and you will remember. Yet the memory of God
cannot shine in a mind that has obliterated it and wants to keep it so. For the
memory of God can dawn only in a mind that chooses to remember, and that has
relinquished the insane desire to control reality. You who cannot even control
yourself should hardly aspire to control the universe. But look upon what you
have made of it, and rejoice that it is not so.

Son of God, be not content with nothing! What is not real cannot be seen and has
no value. God could not offer his Son what has no value, nor could his Son
receive it. You were redeemed the instant you thought you had deserted him.
Everything you made has never been, and is invisible because the Holy Spirit does
not see it. Yet what he does see is yours to behold, and through his vision your
perception is healed. You have made invisible the only truth that this world
holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought nothing. By making nothing real to you,
you have seen it. *But it is not there*. And Christ is invisible to you because
of what you have made visible to yourself.

Yet it does not matter how much distance you have tried to interpose between your
awareness and truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The
Holy Spirit looks upon him, and sees nothing else in you. What is invisible to
you is perfect in his sight, and encompasses all of it. He has remembered you
because he forgot not the Father. You looked upon the unreal and found despair.
Yet by seeking the unreal, what else could you find? The unreal world *is* a
thing of despair, for it can never be. And you who share God's Being with him
could never be content without reality. What God did not give you has no power
over you, and the attraction of love for love remains irresistible. For it is the
function of love to unite all things unto itself, and to hold all things together
by extending its wholeness.

The real world was given you by God in loving exchange for the world you made and
the world you see. Only take it from the hand of Christ and look upon it. Its
reality will make everything else invisible, for beholding it is total perception.
And as you look upon it you will remember that it was always so. Nothingness
will become invisible, for you will at last have seen truly. Redeemed perception
is easily translated into knowledge, for only perception is capable of error and
perception has never been. Being corrected it gives place to knowledge, which is
forever the only reality. The Atonement is but the way back to what was never
lost. Your Father could not cease to love his Son."

- A Course in Miracles Text - Chapter Twelve, Section 8
"The Holy Spirit's Curriculum," "The Attraction of Love for Love"

"Christ's vision is the bridge between the worlds. And in its power can you
safely trust to carry you from this world into one made holy by forgiveness.
Things which seem quite solid here are merely shadows there; transparent, faintly
seen, at times forgot, and never able to obscure the light that shines beyond
them. Holiness has been restored to vision, and the blind can see."
- A Course in Miracles, Workbook, Lesson 159
"I give the miracles I have received."

"Listen, and try to think if you remember what we will speak of now:

Listen, -perhaps you catch a hint of an ancient state not quite forgotten; dim,
perhaps, and yet not altogether unfamiliar, like a song whose name is long
forgotten, and the circumstances in which you heard completely unremembered. Not
the whole song has stayed with you, but just a little wisp of melody, attached not
to a person or a place or anything particular. But you remember, from just this
little part, how lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where you heard
it, and how you loved those who were there and listened with you.

The notes are nothing. Yet you have kept them with you, not for themselves, but
as a soft reminder of what would make you weep if you remembered how dear it was
to you. You could remember, yet you are afraid, believing you would lose the
world you learned since then. And yet you know that nothing in the world you
learned is half so dear as this. Listen, and see if you remember an ancient song
you knew so long ago and held more dear than any melody you taught yourself to
cherish since.

Beyond the body, beyond the sun and stars, past everything you see and yet somehow
familiar, is an arc of golden light that stretches as you look into a great and
shining circle. And all the circle fills with light before your eyes. The edges
of the circle disappear, and what is in it is no longer contained at all. The
light expands and covers everything, extending to infinity forever shining and
with no break or limit anywhere. Within it everything is joined in perfect
continuity. Nor is it possible to imagine that anything could be outside, for
there is nowhere that this light is not.

This is the vision of the Son of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of
him who knows his Father. Here is the memory of what you are; a part of this,
with all of it within, and joined to all as surely as all is joined in you. Accept
the vision that can show you this, and not the body. You know the ancient song,
and know it well. Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn of
love the Son of God sings to his Father still.

And now the blind can see, for that same song they sing in honor of their Creator
gives praise to them as well. The blindness that they made will not withstand the
memory of this song. And they will look upon the vision of the Son of God,
remembering who he is they sing of. What is a miracle but this remembering? And
who is there in whom this memory lies not? The light in one awakens it in all.
And when you see it in your brother, you are remembering for everyone."
- A Course in Miracles, Chapter 21, Section 1 (2pdf)
"Reason and Perception," "The Forgotten Song"

"The world I see holds nothing that I want..." because I want me and you.
(Workbook Lesson 128)
