It sounds shocking, doesn’t it?

But in fact, it’s the best news we’ll ever hear.

When we share this good news, people often blink, raise an eyebrow, get upset, and whisper:

“What do you mean… God doesn’t know I exist?”

But before they grab their Bible, rosary, or yoga mat… let’s just say:

“Relax… this is not an attack on God… it’s a love letter from Truth itself.”

God doesn’t know the person we think we are, because that “I” is part of a dream.

He knows only what is real… His own Creation, pure Love, timeless and changeless.

The rest… our body, our personality, our social media account… is just the costume we wear on the stage of time.

The Course puts it very clearly:

“God knows not form, and therefore cannot know of pain.”

and

“What God created cannot be destroyed, and what we made cannot be real.”

So when we pray to God to fix our bodies, to change our jobs, or to find us a parking space… (yes, we’ve all done that one)… we’re actually talking to our own mind, still asleep, pretending to be someone in need.

The funny thing is, even when the parking space does appear, we say, “Thank You, God!”… as if He just rearranged traffic in Heaven.

But in truth, it was our own mind shifting back into alignment for a moment.

We stopped worrying, we relaxed, we trusted… and in that moment of peace, the world simply reflected our inner state.

God didn’t make the space.

We just stopped blocking it.

When the Course says, “The world was made as an attack on God,” it doesn’t mean someone evil built it….it means the belief in separation built it.

It’s a dream of being apart, an imagined place where we can pretend to be on our own.

But God cannot know what’s not real.

If He did, illusions would have power over Truth…and that would make Him… well, confused.

Luckily, God doesn’t suffer from confusion.

He simply knows Us as He created Us… eternal, whole, untouched by any dream. We are not a body…we are the Sonship…the Son of God…the Extension of God!

So the real question isn’t “Does God know me?”

It’s “Who is the Me we’re talking about?”

Prayer, then, is not about informing God of our needs… He has no idea we even have them!

Prayer is about remembering what We already are.

Each true prayer says silently:

“Father, we want to know what You know of us… not what we made of ourselves.”

And in that remembering, the illusion melts.

We don’t need to get God’s attention.

We need to give Him ours.

When a wise man said, “There is no you to be enlightened,” he was pointing in the same direction.

He ripped the mask off the seeker.

But A Course in Miracles takes us gently by the hand and adds:

“We need do nothing.”

We don’t have to fight the dream…we just wake up from it, with a smile.

So next time we pray, let’s not imagine a distant God checking His inbox.

Instead, let our prayer be a quiet surrender:

“Let us remember that nothing real can be threatened, and nothing unreal exists.”

That’s the shortest… and the happiest… conversation we’ll ever have with God.

Because in the end,

He doesn’t know that we exist… because He never lost us.

With love and light,

G.
