Today We Open to the Truth

In truth God has shared all of Himself with everyone in this world. In truth there are no divisions, no differences of any kind. In truth we all still remain as God’s perfect Love, and nothing has happened to change God’s one Son.

Today we make room for letting in and accepting the truth… We make room for remembering God’s eternal peace… We let the veil be lifted to remember our eternal safety and joy in God… Today we would remember that we are still as God created us and that we are one with all of Heaven now… We loose the world from all we thought it was and receive the miracle of returning to our true Identity…

The time to open to the truth is right now… This is our practice for today.

Releasing Artificial Values

Our greatest experience of joy comes when we feel the Love within connect with the Love in our brother. Gratitude overflows. This is actually our natural state. We don’t experience this consistently only because we give more value to things in the world. These artificial values given to made up images stand in the way of the experience of perfect happiness. It is these artificial values that we must learn to recognize and release.

Our inner Teacher, the Voice for God, is always on call to help us recognize these false values and show us the truth beyond them. This is how we forgive, let go of artificial values and recognize the value of the Love we are and share with everyone.

Today our practice is to walk with Holy Spirit and let Him teach us to recognize the valueless and the truly valuable. With this recognition, we will naturally let go of the interference and let the joy of our one Self be revealed and experienced.

Finding Completion Within

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. It is not necessary to seek for what is true, but it is necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion is one of fear, whatever form it takes. And the attempt to escape from one illusion into another must fail. If you seek love outside yourself you can be certain that you perceive hatred within, and are afraid of it. Yet peace will never come from the illusion of love, but only from its reality.

To lift the veil that seems so dark and heavy, it is only needful to value truth beyond all fantasy, and to be entirely unwilling to settle for illusion in place of truth. (A Course in Miracles T-16.IV.6;10:4)

God created His Son complete, giving all of Himself to His creation. Collectively we are God’s Son. We are complete. We were given everything that is; there is nothing else to seek. In this world everyone is seeking completion because everyone believes they are separate from God, their Completion.

If we follow the ego’s guidance, we will seek for love through external images, where Love cannot be found. The path to completion is through letting go of seeing value in anything in the world of form. This is forgiveness. The world of form is a veil that hides the unity of Love That is our Source.

To return to the joy of Heaven, we need to seek out all the beliefs, all the barriers to the awareness of Love’s presence, and bring them to the Holy Spirit with willingness to be shown the Truth beyond the illusionary barriers. We have had mistaken values, but with Holy Spirit’s help we can recognize where there is no value and lift the veil that reveals the Presence of all Value. This is our focus today.

Being an Ally of God

The power of God and all His Love, without limit, will support you as you seek only your place in the plan of Atonement arising from His Love. Be an ally of God and not the ego in seeking how Atonement can come to you. His help suffices, for His Messenger understands how to restore the Kingdom to you, and to place all your investment in salvation in your relationship with Him. (A Course in Miracles T-16.VII.10:2-4)

We find God’s Messenger within as we are willing to quiet our minds and join with our inner Voice for truth… In quietness our inner Teacher can be heard… We allow time for quiet inner listening…

Everything we need to awaken from the dream of separation is given as we place our faith in the Light of truth within. Here we receive God’s peace. Here we receive our part in the plan of Atonement. Here we are taught how to see as our true Self sees and recognize our oneness in God.

Accepting Love’s Gentleness and Patience

My Prayer of Accepting Love’s Gentleness and Patience

Love, I surrender to Your gentle and patient care… I let go of my perceptions of a past… I let go of my perceptions of a future… I accept only Your eternal loving Presence…

I have no need to plan for my safety. My needs are provided for continuously in Your gentle and patient care.

I let go of all I thought the world was. I let go of all I thought my brothers were. I give back to You all I thought was mine alone.

I accept Love’s gentleness and patience by giving Love’s gentleness and patience to the whole Sonship.

Return to Perfect Joy

The Course assures us that God is perfect happiness. If we are not supremely happy, something has gone wrong — we believe we are disconnected from God’s joy. We cannot truly separate from joy, but we can believe we are separate. The consequence of that belief is the loss of joy.

Our prayer today: Father, we have been mistaken about what we think we are and feel that we are wandering in the wilderness, uncertain and alone. We would return Home to you. We open our minds and hearts to Your Voice with willingness to be taught to see with the vision that shows us we remain at one with You. We remain in Your Love, changeless and unchangeable. We share Your joy and the eternal extension of that Love. Amen.

Letting Go of the False Identity

You perceive the world and everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These goals have nothing to do with your own best interests, because the ego is not you. This false identification makes you incapable of understanding what anything is for. As a result, you are bound to misuse it. When you believe this, you will try to withdraw the goals you have assigned to the world, instead of attempting to reinforce them.

Another way of describing the goals you now perceive is to say that they are all concerned with “personal” interests. Since you have no personal interests, your goals are really concerned with nothing. In cherishing them, therefore, you have no goals at all. And thus you do not know what anything is for.” (A Course in Miracles W-pI.25.2-3)

Letting this passage from the Course sink in deeply helps us remember to step back from the personal goals we have had in the past. It is only by opening our minds to our inner Teacher, the Holy Spirit, that we are brought into alignment with the values of our true Identity. Our true Identity knows only oneness and so there are no individual self interests because there are no individual selves.

Our true Self leads us to let go of this false identity because It knows there are no differences and sees that what is not Love is really nothing. Our true Identity returns us to the happiness of remembering that we are one in God’s Love. This is our real Identity. Today we ask the Holy Spirit to help us see with the vision of our true Self which will always show us our unity with our brothers and our Father.
