We Return to God

Father, we are like You. No cruelty abides in us, for there is none in You. Your peace is ours. And we bless the world with what we have received from You alone. We choose again, and make our choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We bring them Your salvation as we have received it now. And we give thanks for them who render us complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we find our peace. Holy are we because Your Holiness has set us free. And we give thanks. Amen. A Course in Miracles, (W-pI.170.13)

As we make it our highest priority to return to our true Nature, our mind opens to receive and extend peace, Love and joy… We easily see the true Nature in every brother… We soak in Love’s Presence… We are grateful for the truth that we and every brother are like our Father… We cannot change What God created… And for this we are eternally grateful.

Walking in the Way of Love

Holy Spirit, help me walk in the way of Love today… I bring my fears to you to be washed clean of mistaken thoughts and beliefs… With Your help I will see past the false images conjured to make it appear that guilt and defense are justified… With Your help I will answer calls for Love — a brother’s or my own — with Love…

Help me to see with Your vision that only innocence is there to be seen… Help me to welcome the truth of my brother into my heart… He is one with the Self we share… As I walk with You in Love… every encounter becomes an encounter with my Self… It will be a holy day indeed.

Being Lighthearted

We are lighthearted when we are in a peaceful state of mind. We are lighthearted when we are aligned with the thoughts of the Holy Spirit — when we see as He sees. The Holy Spirit sees no conflict and thus is always at peace.

Love is simple and uncomplicated, free of all conflict. In Truth there is nothing but Love. To return to the truth, it is helpful to take a deep breath and relax as we let it out… As we let ourselves settle into the center of peace within, the appearance of conflict fades… Our minds are opened to the comfort and inspiration of the Holy Spirit…

We are open to His vision, which shows us the reality of Love’s oneness behind the appearance… We accept the Light of Love in our minds, which dissolves the false beliefs… The heaviness of fear fades as we let the Light of Love fill our hearts.

Today we practice holding our minds open to the Holy Spirit’s inspiration, which brings lightheartedness with it.

Seeing the Holiness in Your Brother

The Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision of a holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you give your faith to holiness, desiring and believing in it because of your desire. (A Course in Miracles, T-21.III.6:6-7)

No matter what wild illusions we may conjure in the dream of separation, the Holy Spirit has a kind and loving correction. He needs only our willingness to consider the possibility that there might be something that would bring us greater happiness which we would prefer instead of the images we have made.

When we entertain that possibility, we are opening our willingness to receive the Holy Spirit’s vision. His vision will help us see that what He offers is what we really want instead of our self-made illusions. He will teach us that we do not have to live with the conflict, sense of loss, feeling of loneliness and incompletion, the vulnerability, we experience in the dream.

He offers us instead, deep peace, perfect safety, limitless Love and joy beyond description. We only need to recognize that we prefer these gifts and make the choice to accept them. With Holy Spirit’s loving help, we freely make this choice and in this choice we see our oneness with our brother and we join in the holiness of the one Self we share.

Bringing Blessing to Our Day

There are many little detailed things to do today. Its a perfect opportunity to practice stepping back and letting Holy Spirit lead the way in each moment. As we rest in His Love and peace, with our minds open to His lead, we will be guided in what to do, where to go, what to say and to whom. Because this guidance comes from the Source of Love, it will always bring blessing with it. With this practice it will be a truly blessed day.

Accepting Inner Peace

Accepting inner peace is the gateway to freedom from ego thoughts. Today we practice opening to and accepting the peace that comes from our true Self… We welcome in the Light of peace and all that comes with It… We feel uplifted and carried by the Light of truth as we quiet our minds…

We feel the peace and sense of well being that comes from our true Self… We accept Its power to shine away fear thoughts and thoughts of limitation and lack… We let It shine away destructive thoughts of guilt, blame and unworthiness… All these gifts come as we practice, hour by hour, accepting inner peace.

We Open Our Minds to the Truth

Today I can forget the world I made. Today I can go past all fear, and be restored to love and holiness and peace.

And so, our Father, we return to You, remembering we never went away; remembering Your holy gifts to us. In gratitude and thankfulness we come, with empty hands and open hearts and minds, asking but what You give. (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.306.1:2-3;2:1-2)

Love and holiness and peace are already ours. The world we see through the body seems to be the complete opposite of this, because it is the effect of believing that we have successfully separated from peace and Love and holiness. Yet even though we see a world of conflict and fear, we still have the gifts God gave in creating His Son. We are still His one Son; we are not the image we have made of ourselves as a body, weak and vulnerable, destined to die.

We can remember the gifts that are already ours and the truth that we are united as God’s one Son. This remembering comes when we are willing to lay down the images we have made. We do this by letting the Holy Spirit replace these images with Christ’s vision of the truth. As we come with empty hands, an open mind and a willing heart, we remember that we remain Love as Love created us.
