Pausing to Accept God’s Peace and Joy

Today we practice accepting God’s peace and joy. As we accept God’s peace, we naturally extend it to everyone around us. We will take many little “peace and joy breaks” throughout the day to remember that God’s gifts of peace and joy are already ours. We will accept His gifts and extend them to all our brothers. And we will experience the blessings of these gifts each time we give them.

Letting Holy Spirit Be in Charge

This holy instant would I give to You. Be You in charge. For I would follow You, certain that Your direction gives me peace.” (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.361-365)

Today our practice is to follow Holy Spirit’s lead. We let our minds be purified as we open the door and welcome in true perception. We want to see as Holy Spirit sees. We want to recognize and join with the Love That is everywhere. We want to follow Holy Spirit’s plan for our awakening and not our own.

Today we practice being receptive every moment to a constant flow of inspiration from the Holy Spirit. We know the inspiration is of Holy Spirit by the level of peace we experience. We accept God’s peace and extend God’s peace. And we are grateful for Holy Spirit’s constant flow of gifts throughout the day.

Opening the Door to God’s Light

Only by fulfilling the function given you by God will you be happy. That is because your function is to be happy by using the means by which happiness becomes inevitable. There is no other way. Therefore, every time you choose whether or not to fulfill your function [to forgive], you are really choosing whether or not to be happy. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.64.4)

When we open the door to God’s Light, we are perceiving as the Holy Spirit sees. Light sees only Light. Darkness sees only darkness. When we open the door to the Light, our mind is enlightened and peace, joy and happiness come with it automatically.

We open the door to God’s Light by forgiving. Happiness is the inevitable result of forgiveness, of seeing innocence. If we are not happy, we are not seeing innocence.

Seeing Past Form to Eternal Love

Our practice for today is to be willing to let how we see the world be replaced by the Holy Spirit. When we open to the Light, the Light comes in automatically. So now we focus on opening to the Light, letting go of our barriers against the Light. This is what today is for.

We apply this practice throughout our day. We know that as we consistently open to the Light of Truth, we are able to see the world as the Holy Spirit sees it. We are able to be truly helpful to our awakening and the awakening of the world. It is truly worth the practice. This is what time is for.

Being a Clear Channel for Holy Spirit

Our prayer today:  Help me to perceive as You perceive the world, Holy Spirit. Of myself I do not know what anything means. Believing I am alone blinds me from seeing with Your vision. I am willing to set aside this belief and welcome Your vision, Holy Spirit.

I am willing to follow Your lead in each moment to be Your instrument in all my doing today. I am willing to accept Your strength, knowing that with Your strength I can do anything You guide me to do. I know that following Your lead is the path to joy. This path to joy leads me Home, where I belong and am eternally.

We Receive God’s Gifts as We Go Through the Day

Today we accept God’s joy. Today we accept God’s peace. Today we are willing to be lighthearted and practice opening to the Light of our true Self’s inspiration. Today we practice following Holy Spirit’s lead, instead of deciding anything on our own. Today we devote to returning to God, where we belong in truth. We receive God’s gifts as we go through the day to make our journey simple and filled with peace and joy. And we are thankful for all the Help we receive.

Receiving True Perception

In quietness is [the Light of peace] acknowledged universally. For what your inward vision looks upon is your perception of the universe.

Sit quietly and close your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world, and let your thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.188.5:6-6:1-6)

True perception is right there in our minds waiting to be accepted. As we are willing to close our eyes and open to the Light within, the Light of our true Self is naturally welcomed into our mind. The distractions disappear and are replaced by peace and clarity. What does not matter is shined away and the insight needed is naturally there, without effort. Simple, uncomplicated Love replaces all the complexity of the world. All this comes when we are willing to accept the true perception of our Self.
