Let Yourself Be Happy

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Let yourself remember today that you are Love’s Extension… As Love your function is to extend Love… Love is oneness. Love is. God is. There is nothing else. Love recognizes only Love. Love sees past dreams of separate bodies to the truth. Let yourself see the truth today. Let this be your practice. This is true forgiveness. This is what brings you happiness. Let yourself be happy by remembering the truth today. In this way, you become the Light of the world.


Robert:
My focus today is to align my seeing with the Holy Spirit’s vision. I will know who I am aligning with by the level of peace I feel. Aligning with the ego always carries with it a feeling of inadequacy, fear and underlying guilt. Aligning with the Holy Spirit brings happiness and peace. With the Holy Spirit I see Love everywhere. I choose to see with Holy Spirit today.

Let Yourself Be Carried

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Step back and let Me take over. Handover everything to Me. Let yourself be carried. Relax. Open to the Light of peace. Remember you are in Heaven now. Anything other than Heaven is dreams. Let simple, uncomplicated Love lead the way through your day. This is how to be truly helpful.


Holy Spirit to Robert:
Let yourself be carried. The ego is the wish to control, to usurp God’s Will and make a will of its own. When you follow the ego’s guidance, you will try to “control your destiny” motivated by fear and guilt. Yet this “destiny” is just a collection of illusions with no substance, no reality. You are not destined for anything. You are everything, for you have all that God is, and there is nothing else.

Let yourself be carried by being vigilant for peace. In peace you remember What you are and Where you are. You realize that you are not destined for greatness; you are the magnificence of God now. Relax in the certainty of your changeless Self. In the remembrance of this changelessness, the world perceived through the body’s eyes becomes benign, incapable of harm or change of any kind. Here is your happiness and peace.

Peace First

Robert:
The peace of God brings happiness. Trying to find happiness in any form in the world is simply looking where it can’t be found. But when I go to the peace in my mind given me by God, no thing in the world concerns me or disturbs my peace. From that center of peace I know clearly what is my part in Holy Spirit’s plan. I don’t try to make the plan. I receive His plan, knowing that I have everything I need to do as He asks. While it appears that I am in a body in the world, there is a function that Holy Spirit would have me fill. The only meaning any form has is in its service to awakening.

Holy Spirit, I offer all my thoughts to you, knowing you will cleanse them of mistaken beliefs and return them to me with your Light that I may see the truth beyond every form. Today I would follow only You. In gratitude and peace.


Mary:
This morning as I go into a place of quiet and listen, I hear the words, “Peace first. Let peace guide your way today. Think only of receiving and extending peace. Follow where peace leads you.”

Offering Peace Is Receiving Peace

Mary:
In our reading of A Course in Miracles this morning, this stood out to me:

To give is to receive. Today we will attempt to offer peace to everyone, and see how quickly peace returns to us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is vision given us, and we can see. …To give and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am giving now. …To everyone I offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To everyone I offer gentleness. (W-pI.108.7:3-5,8:2-3,6-8)

This is teaching me very clearly that, when I offer peace to everyone, I am receiving peace; when I offer gentleness to everyone, I am receiving gentleness. If I want to be happy today, my opportunity is to give peace and happiness to everyone I see or even think of. This is how I receive happiness. Oh happy day!


Robert:
I am grateful for the joy of peace. I am grateful for the comfort peace brings. I am grateful for the vision that peace welcomes, which looks past all images and shows me the Love that is everywhere. I am grateful for the core of peace that is the truth in me, ever present, waiting only upon my welcome. Today I choose to welcome peace.

Waves of Peace

Robert:
God’s peace and strength are ours. If we feel vulnerable to harm of any kind, we have forgotten that the strength of God is in us. The world is full of images that make harm seem real. But harm only seems real because we believe we are an image that is the denial of God’s strength. To feel God’s strength and know His safety, we must let go of (forgive) this false image. This is why forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door we have made against God’s Love and joy and peace.

Today I practice again bringing any and all disturbing thoughts to the Holy Spirit to let Him shine His kind and peaceful Light upon them. His vision shows me that only Love is real and helps me remember Who I am.

I will remind myself frequently today: “God’s Will and strength are mine. Harm is impossible.”


Mary:
Holy Spirit, I accept waves and waves of peace today… I take time out frequently today to accept your peace. As I open to accepting your peace, I help myself and I help the world. Peace is my one goal.

True Responsibility

Holy Spirit to Robert:
The ego believes in taking responsibility but its idea of responsibility is distorted. It believes it is responsible for making a world that satisfies its wishes. It also believes that to accept responsibility is to accept guilt. So it uses responsibility as a means for establishing the reality of sin. Being responsible for the making of illusions is being responsible for nothing in reality. So it could be called being irresponsible.

Your only real responsibility is to accept your Self as Love created you. This means accepting your function as Love’s extension, which is to extend the Love that you are. There is nothing else to do. To attempt to do or be anything else is irresponsible. Thus if you feel guilt in any way, you are choosing the irresponsibility of the ego. Accepting your true responsibility will only bring you the peace and happiness of the Love you share with God.

Today as you look on the world through the body’s eyes, join with Me and accept My vision that shows you the reality beyond all images. This is your responsibility as the Son of God. Joined together, we will see the Reality of Love everywhere. As you learn to trust My vision, you will know with certainty that you remain innocent, along with all your brothers. Share My vision today and remember Who you are.


Mary:
Today it is my job to accept Holy Spirit’s peace. From this place of peace, I will be most useful to Holy Spirit’s plan of awakening. This is my only responsibility.

Rest in the Changeless Mind of God

Robert:
I rest in God…. Here is my comfort and my safety…. I rest in God…. His changelessness is my rock…. I rest in God…. In Him is all my strength and my happiness. In Him is my Identity, my Self…. I rest in God…. In Him is my Life. I need nothing else, for there is nothing else…. I rest in God with all my brothers, who are one with me and Him…. As I rest in Him, I see only the Light of Love, for there is nothing else to see.

I rest in gratitude for all that Love has given me and that I am. I rest in God, knowing that Here I am Home.


Mary:
Today is a day of remembering that we are all safe at Home in Heaven. We are all safe in the changeless Mind of God. There is no need to fear. Only God is here.
