“The fourth obstacle to be surmounted hangs like a heavy veil before the face of Christ. Yet as His face rises beyond it, shining with joy because He is in His Father’s Love, peace will lightly brush the veil aside and run to meet Him, and to join with Him at last.” (A Course in Miracles, FIP ed., T-19.IV.D.2)
We are all a Christ in miniature. Jesus shares his Christhood with us. And when we have learned to see the face of Christ in all our brothers, we will be home free at last. This quotation shows the way in which Christ’s face in our brothers rises to meet us; the veil is lifted. This is true pleasure in the moment, when we see Christ in our brothers. We are being blessed in this moment. It is a harbinger of better days ahead.
We can pray to see Christ in all our brothers. It is a mystical experience that will not last for most people. But in the happening do we see what we are to see in our better moments for the rest of our lives. For Christ is behind the veil of physical form in everyone.
We will join with our brother, metaphorically, when we see Christ in him. We will want to be one with him. And it will be granted us, if only that for holy instant in time.
We will be at peace. Christ will have come to us, recognized at last.
