Let Love Carry You

Holy Spirit to Robert:
Rest in My Love. Rest in My Love as you work at the computer. Rest in My Love as you go to the post office. Rest in My Love as you talk on the phone. Rest in My Love as you eat your meals. We walk together, you and I. Let My Love carry you through the day, remembering My Love is yours, for there is but One. Welcome Love and be happy.

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Let yourself be carried by Love today. Give time to receiving the gift of Love being extended to you… Give time to allowing Love to be extended through you… As you practice this, everything else disappears in Love’s Light.

Forgiveness: The Key to Happiness

Robert:
I’m getting it: Forgiveness is the key to happiness. Forgiveness is how I let go of the battle against the world and the battle against God. Judgment and unhappiness go together. I think I’m getting it that I’d rather be happy than be right in my judgments.

A Course in Miracles is so infused with the importance of forgiveness that it seems a wonder that it has taken so long to recognize the beautiful treasure that forgiveness offers. But the Course acknowledges that we resist its message of forgiveness because we still hold out hope that the world still offers us something we want.

So I have been practicing forgiveness because that is what the Course told me to do. At first it was just on blind faith with little confidence that there would be any benefit, or that I could even truly forgive. But like it says in the introduction to the Workbook, you do not have to believe in what it is telling you. In fact you can actively resist it. Just do the exercises anyway.

I feel that now I am experiencing some of the payoff, the great blessing, that forgiveness offers. I’m recognizing that forgiveness offers me what I want more than anything in the world. My judgments still get triggered and I lose my sense of peace and happiness, but I am less and less willing to sit in that unhappiness. The need for forgiveness comes to mind quickly and I offer my disturbance to the Holy Spirit, asking His help to see as He sees. As I accept His vision, my happiness is restored.

I thank you Father for your gifts to me.

Mary:
As I get quiet and listen, I am reminded that there is only one Self. There is only one Mind. This same Mind belongs to everyone. We are one Self, joined in the Mind of God. Today my practice is to give time to returning to that Mind in quiet listening. What I experience is beyond words. Letting go of the little separated mind is all this day is for.
