A Course in Miracles Topic - Protection

 Protection is a favorite ego device to proclaim that God's Love is not real. Every reaction to a "threat " makes it real in your mind, and denies Truth.
 Light cannot enter darkness when a mind believes in darkness, and will not let it go. Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and love does not attack fear. What needs no protection does not defend itself. Defense is of your making. God knows it not.      T-14.VII.5:1-5.
Forget not, when you feel the need arise to be defensive about anything, you have identified yourself with an illusion. And therefore feel that you are weak because you are alone. This is the cost of all illusions. Not one but rests on the belief that you are separate.                          T-22.V.6:1-4.
Because their hearts are pure, the innocent defend true perception instead of defending themselves against it. Understanding the lesson of the Atonement they are without the wish to attack, and therefore they see truly.         T-3.II.5:8,9.
