Freedom from Bondage

Freedom from the bondage of the ego’s thought system is our practice for today. We have enslaved ourselves by choosing to believe we are limited to a separate identity contained in a body. This belief makes us unaware of the limitless Love we are. It leaves us feeling deprived, lonely, weak and afraid. This need not be.

We have the means within our minds to free ourselves from the bondage of this limiting belief. Our true Self is always offering us the limitless Love that is given by God. We need only be willing to accept the Gift. We do this by bringing all our judgments, our guilt and fear to our Self with willingness to receive the vision of our true Self, Which sees past the appearances of limitation to the limitless Love we are and everyone is.

Today we practice aligning with the vision of our Self to see limitless Love everywhere. This practice frees us from bondage.

Love Is Gentle

Love waits on our readiness and willingness. It never forces or pushes us past our level of willingness. But our willingness is required for Love to enter and extend through us. As we receive an infusion of Love through our willingness, It freely extends to all because that is its nature. As we accept Love, It becomes our gift to the world and we are blessed.

Our practice today is to let Love’s gentleness wash through us, healing our minds and extending that healing to all. What a wonderful opportunity we have today!

We Invite the Quiet Mind Today

No matter what is happening in our life today, we can still go within and welcome the quiet peace of our true Self. The gentle quietness the Holy Spirit brings helps us see every experience we encounter differently.

In truth we are completely immersed in Love’s Presence. As we consistently open to this truth throughout the day, every situation is seen differently. We are able to see with the Holy Spirit’s vision as we give Him welcome. Holy Spirit’s peace heals our perceptions and we naturally extend the peace we receive. Here, in peace, we experience the fact that God is our strength and vision is His gift.

We learn that we do not require a special form or setting in order to invite the quiet Mind and receive its many blessings as we go through the day.

How Would Love Respond in This Moment?

Every single moment we have the choice between the thought systems of Love or fear. Our focus today is to pay attention to what we are choosing all through the day. Love brings peace, gentleness and happiness; fear brings tension, conflict and efforting. If we don’t pay attention to where our mind is, we can easily be led by the fearful thought system of the ego. But we can always choose differently.

Our prayer today is for help in strengthening our awareness of Love’s Answer in each moment. Love will lead us to the happy joining with Love and release us from the guilt of judgment. We choose freedom from judgment today. We listen to Love’s healing guidance. And we give thanks that what we ask for we receive. As we are willing to let go of the past, we receive the gift of Love that fits perfectly in the present moment.

We Are All Eternal Spirit

Today we practice accepting the fact that we are eternal Spirit… We practice opening our minds to this truth about ourselves… As we open to the truth that we are eternal Spirit, we also recognize that everyone is eternal Spirit… We let this change of mind be absorbed deeply… We let it replace the false ideas of separate bodies with separate lives… We let ourselves soak in this awareness today… This is what today is for—to let the truth return to our minds… We step back from illusions and give time to letting the truth return to our minds today…

As we practice this, we feel gratitude, peace and happiness the world cannot give.

Remembering Our Self

All we really want is to remember the Love of God, which is to remember our Self. This memory is restored to us as we forgive or let go of thoughts that we are separate from God or anyone. To remember the Love we are we must be willing to accept the Help given us by the Source of Love.

Our practice today is to hold our minds open in peace to the Holy Spirit’s guidance. With His guidance we will learn to see the Love beyond all appearances. As we accept that Love, we will remember the Love we are and we will recognize our brothers as one with us in Love. The Holy Spirit is always with us, offering His help for us to remember we are innocent and safe and have everything we need.

Learning to See Truly

Do you not want to know your own Identity? …Vision is freely given to those who ask to see.

Your brother’s sinlessness is given you in shining light, to look on with the Holy Spirit’s vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will come to all who ask for [vision] with real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the Holy Spirit and at one with Him on what salvation is. Be willing, then, to see your brother sinless, that Christ may rise before your vision and give you joy. And place no value on your brother’s body, which holds him to illusions of what he is. It is his desire to see his sinlessness, as it is yours. And bless the Son of God in your relationship, nor see in him what you have made of him. (A Course in Miracles, T-20.VIII.2:1,10;3:1-6)

Sin and separation are synonymous. The body is an image of separation and is therefore an image of sin. Thus to see our brother truly, we must not identify him as a body. This means that we need to learn to disregard the images our body’s eyes show us and give full regard to the Holy Spirit’s vision. This is a radical shift from the values we have learned in the dream of separation. But it is the only way that we can learn to release our attachment to the values of the world and remember that we are only Love, along with all our brothers.

We ask, today, to receive Holy Spirit’s vision, moment by moment. Thus will we learn to recognize that our brother is not a body, but remains the Love that Love created Him to be. We will learn to see only innocence and thereby learn of our innocence. In this vision, we will find the peace we seek.
