Letting Holy Spirit Help Throughout the Day

If you have made it a habit to ask for help when and where you can, you can be confident that wisdom will be given you when you need it. Prepare for this each morning, remember God when you can throughout the day, ask the Holy Spirit’s help when it is feasible to do so, and thank Him for His guidance at night. And your confidence will be well founded indeed. (A Course in Miracles M-29.5:8-10)

This practice is the way out of hell. No matter how much we analyze and try to gather information in the world to make decisions, there is always uncertainty. This is because, as an illusion, the world is inherently uncertain. But the Holy Spirit sees all things from the perspective of changeless truth. It sees the illusions but does not believe them. It prepares an individualized curriculum for each of us that will help us let go of the illusions that keep us in fear and in guilt and lead us back to the certainty of the Self that God created.

Today we continue our journey of return to Heaven as we let Holy Spirit lead us there throughout the day.

Choosing to See Spirit

You see the flesh or recognize the spirit. …On this one choice does all your world depend, for here have you established what you are, as flesh or spirit in your own belief. If you choose flesh, you never will escape the body as your own reality, for you have chosen that you want it so. But choose the spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless your holy sight, that you may see the world of flesh no more except to heal and comfort and to bless. (A Course in Miracles T-31.VI.1:1,6-8)

What we all are is the eternal Spirit of Love. This is the truth. Today it is our opportunity to look beyond the world of separate bodies and see the Love that is there to see. This cannot be seen through the body’s eyes. We see the Love that is everywhere through accepting Holy Spirit’s perception. This is all we want to see today. If we seem to see something else, we ask, “Holy Spirit, help me to see the truth beyond the image, that I may heal and be healed.” And we give thanks.

Listening to the Voice for God

Your healing Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to go; to whom to speak and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your Voice protects all things through me. (A Course in Miracles W-pII.275.2)

Today we place our trust in the Voice for God. We wait on His answer knowing he will lead us in peace and Love all through the day. We trust in Him alone, as does a little child trust his father. We place our lives in His Hands today, knowing that God’s healing Voice protects all things today. We ask for nothing but the truth and receive as we have asked. And we give thanks.

Only Love Is There

All Love is already given us. Love is What we are. Love is all inclusive because Love is all that Is. When we identify with a separate Identity, we cannot be aware of Love. So identifying with being a separate identity brings with it a sense of loss and loneliness, and a yearning to find the Love that seems to be missing. Everyone in the world of separation experiences this.

We cannot find that missing Love in the world, but we can find it with the help of the Holy Spirit in our minds Who remembers that we remain Love as we were created. We welcome Holy Spirit’s help by offering all our judgments to Him with a willingness to have them be replaced with His true perception. We have to let go of our insistence that we know what anything means to make way for our mistaken interpretations to be replaced with Holy Spirit’s vision, which always leads to the recognition that only Love is there.

Our prayer today is to offer all our judgments to the Holy Spirit with willingness to receive His loving vision in their place.

Willingness to Share Holy Spirit’s Perspective

The Holy Spirit asks only this little help of you: Whenever your thoughts wander to a special relationship which still attracts you, enter with Him into a holy instant, and there let Him release you. He needs only your willingness to share His perspective to give it to you completely. And your willingness need not be complete because His is perfect. It is His task to atone for your unwillingness by His perfect faith, and it is His faith you share with Him there. Out of your recognition of your unwillingness for your release, His perfect willingness is given you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His Call. And let Him call on Heaven for you. (A Course in Miracles T-16.VI.12)

Our prayer for today: Holy Spirit, this is a day to follow your lead. This is a day for remembering we know nothing on our own. We are willing to give up our way of seeing and open to Your perspective that sees beyond the images to the Light that is the truth in all. We give thanks that You are always there in our minds to be recognized the moment we are willing to share your perspective.

Accepting and Giving Christ’s Vision

Christ’s vision has one law. It does not look upon a body, and mistake it for the Son whom God created. It beholds a light beyond the body; an idea beyond what can be touched, a purity undimmed by errors, pitiful mistakes, and fearful thoughts of guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation. And it looks on everyone, on every circumstance, all happenings and all events, without the slightest fading of the light it sees.

…We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ’s vision looks upon ourselves as well. (A Course in Miracles W-pI.158.7:1-5;11:3-4)

When anything disturbs our peace, it is always because we see the cause as external. This is because in that moment, we are identifying with being a body, a separate identity.

There is a simple antidote that will set us free. All we need to do is join with the Holy Spirit in our mind to see with His vision, which always disregards the body and any form to see only the Light of Love. That is all there is to really see.

When we welcome this vision, we are at peace. We know there is nothing that can harm us because we are one with all that is real. We recognize that everything is part of us, at one in Love. In this recognition, fear is impossible. With this vision, we welcome our brother and see his holiness, which teaches us of our holiness. What we give, we receive. What we teach, we learn. Our practice today is to accept and give Christ’s vision.

Honoring Our One Self

You are as God created you. Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of God instead of what he is be worshipped not today. Deep in your mind the holy Christ in you is waiting your acknowledgment as you. (A Course in Miracles W-pI.110.9:1-4)

It certainly doesn’t seem that there is a holy Christ in us that is actually What we are. But that is because we are identifying with an image of what we are that is a false idol. This image is actually a defense against accepting the holy Christ in us.

The Course is giving us a way to disconnect from this false idol so that we can open our hearts and minds and acknowledge our Self that is the Christ. This is what forgiveness does.

Letting go of the past, forgiving all grievances, and letting go of judgment are the means to clear away the barriers to the recognition that we remain as God created us — Love and nothing else.

We dedicate this day to reminding ourselves frequently that we are as God created us, united in the one Love of God. It does not matter if we wholeheartedly believe this or not. The frequent reminders will help us open to the truth. That is all we really want.
