Joining with Holy Spirit’s Vision

Life becomes very simple and filled with contentment and joy as we practice joining with Holy Spirit’s vision each day. The Holy Spirit helps us see past fear thoughts of the ego to what is eternally true about us. As we continue our practice, our lives become less turbulent and we move into a very peaceful, calm state of being.

There is great contentment and joy living in this state of being… We still see the ups and downs in our life experience, but we don’t get caught up in them… We flow through our experiences in a sea of calm…

Joined with Holy Spirit, we see the world as kind… We pass by fear thoughts to the awareness of Love’s Presence… We feel so grateful and fulfilled as we are able to join with others in remembering the truth of everyone’s true Identity… Our happiness and contentment expand day by day as we continue to join with Holy Spirit’s vision.

Recognizing Love’s Gifts Today

Today I choose to pass by the distracting thoughts and images of the world to the center of peace within. This center of peace is the Self that remains at Home in the oneness of Love. From this place of peace, true vision sees only Love everywhere. There is no conflict here; only Love’s gifts are here.

As I am willing to accept these gifts as mine, I see them in everyone and everything. Forms cannot disguise the presence of Love’s gifts. Today I choose to walk in peace, that I may recognize Love’s gifts everywhere throughout the day.

We Are One Light. There Is No Distance Between Us

We are God’s one Son. In reality there are no differences. Differences are only in the ego’s world of separation. We are learning to see past these false ideas and let them go.

As we learn to see past the false ideas of the ego thought system, we open to the truth of everyone’s innocence. We open to the truth that nothing has happened to change God’s one Son. Only in illusions could change be possible.

As we consistently practice listening to our inner Teacher, the Holy Spirit, we learn to see the Light of Love that resides in everyone… We learn to focus on this Light and receive Its blessing. We remember that as we see each brother, we are seeing ourselves… We want to reinforce the truth, rather than illusions… As we focus on the truth, we extend and receive Love… We join in remembering God’s oneness, Love’s oneness… Here we find peace, joy and happiness…

God’s Gift of Heaven Is Ours Now

No one remains in hell, for no one can abandon his Creator, nor affect His perfect, timeless and unchanging Love. You will find Heaven. Everything you seek but this will fall away. Yet not because it has been taken from you. It will go because you do not want it. You will reach the goal you really want as certainly as God created you in sinlessness.

Why wait for Heaven? It is here today. Time is the great illusion [that Heaven] is past or in the future. Yet this cannot be, if [Heaven] is where God wills His Son to be. How could the Will of God be in the past, or yet to happen? What He wills is now, without a past and wholly futureless. (A Course in Miracles, T-pI.131.5:1-6:6)

The ego, the thought system of separation, is a fraud. It offers us a bill of goods that claims to give us pleasure, status, more than everything. If we believe in what it offers, we are buying an empty bill of goods. The package it comes in may be beautifully wrapped in enticing images, but when we open the package, we find there is nothing there. Having believed in it, we feel empty. This emptiness leads us on a search to find that which will bring us the Love we seem to be missing, the peace that is nowhere to be found in the world and lasting happiness that the ego’s bill of goods cannot offer.

Gratefully we are not the ego. And though we have bought the ego’s bill of goods, God’s eternal gift to us remains ours. We are only unaware of God’s gifts because the glittering images of the ego have distracted us. We have Help within our minds to shine a Light on the fraudulent ego images which shows us that in truth, there is nothing there.

When we are willing to open to that Light, we are shown the eternal, changeless gift that lies beyond the empty images and that we have never lost. We do not have to wait to receive God’s Love, peace and joy. They are already ours. We need only allow the Light within to show us the way to remembering we are in Heaven now.

Accepting We Are Spirit

You see the flesh or recognize the spirit. There is no compromise between the two. If one is real the other must be false, for what is real denies its opposite. There is no choice in vision but this one. What you decide in this determines all you see and think is real and hold as true. 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)

The truth is that we are all joined as one eternal Spirit of Love… We came from Love, and our one function is to extend the Love we are… We are eternally safe, one with God…

Letting this truth return to our mind brings with it the Light and understanding of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit gently returns us to the truth about ourselves and every brother. The Holy Spirit shines a Light on our insane imaginings of separation. In the Light of truth these shadow thoughts disappear. We return to joy, happiness, peace and feel the eternal presence of Love.

We remember that we never left Heaven, but only dreamed of being separate and alone. We truly are safe in God. We truly have never left God’s perfect Love. We remember that this is true about ourselves and everyone we see in this world. All this comes as we accept we are Spirit. This is our practice for today.

Accepting Enlightenment

Simply do this: Be still, and lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what God is; all concepts you have learned about the world; all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or false, or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy, and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. Hold onto nothing.

Is it not He Who knows the way to you? You need not know the way to Him. Your part is simply to allow all obstacles that you have interposed between the Son and God the Father to be quietly removed forever. God will do His part in joyful and immediate response. Ask and receive.

And in our quiet hearts and open minds, His Love will blaze its pathway of itself. …Through every opened door His Love shines outward from its home within, and lightens up the world in innocence. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.189.7:1-3;8:1-5;9:4,8)

Today we give thanks that we have the means to receive the truth about our true Identity… Today we give thanks that we have the means to receive enlightenment… to let God’s Love shine outward from within… Today we give thanks that our willingness is strong… We step back… and let ourselves be led… There is no better way than this… We open our minds in trust and the Holy Spirit does the rest.

Being a Messenger of Joy

Holy Spirit, help me to be a messenger of joy today. Help me to see with Your vision the Love and joy that is everywhere to be seen. With Your help, I will see every brother as Love’s extension, wholly innocent, at one with me, as we are one in our Creator.

This vision is free of judgment, so there is no fear nor guilt. There is only the joyous welcome of the one Self that we all are in truth. I am willing to accept Your vision today.
