Holy Spirit’s Way to a Happy Easter

Holy Spirit to Robert:
Today is a day set aside to celebrate resurrection. Remember that the body is an illusion, so resurrection of the body is meaningless. But resurrection of your memory of your Self is everything because it is the return to the life you have in God. There is no other life.

Without belief in separation, there would be no need for resurrection. But belief in separation is belief in death and so resurrection is needed to return your awareness to the Life that is yours. Let today be a joyous celebration that you have never left your Home in Life, in God. Let this celebration be all inclusive, leaving no one out, for all are one with you in the Life God shares with you.

Happy awakening! Happy Easter!

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Celebrate this day be letting the Christ mind return to your awareness. Allow the resurrection of the truth in you, the Light of God you are.

You do this by being willing to let go of the false self image that you once believed in. As you let this false image fall away, you make room for the resurrection of your true Self. This is accomplished by the Holy Spirit, your inner Teacher, as you are willing to let go of control and follow your inner Teacher’s lead. Celebrate Easter the Holy Spirit’s way. Let the Holy Spirit bring you to your resurrection. Let the truth about What you are and Where you are return to your holy mind.

Step Back and Let Your Mind Quiet

Holy Spirit to Robert:
If you want the peace of God, you must let go of trying to understand and organize fragments of the world you perceive. Reality is one and cannot be understood by looking at parts perceived as separate. That is why making plans on your own only serves to reinforce your sense of being separate. Making plans on your own is an attempt to organize separate images, separate thoughts, separate events and circumstances into a picture you believe will content you. But only the recognition of your oneness with Love will bring you happiness.

Step aside from all your planning and organizing and analyzing. This only serves to reinforce your sense of being alone. Hand over all these thoughts to Me. I will wash them clean of falsity and return them to you with a plan that leads you to a full recognition of your oneness with your Source. My only purpose is to return you to the happiness God wills for you. Step back and let Me lead the way.

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Let your mind quiet today. Let your mind be still. Let your mind be aware of Love’s Presence. This is your practice today.

Enjoy Today

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Enjoy today… Enjoy today in Me… In Me you will be in joy. In Me you will be in peace. We are one, you and I… And you are learning to recognize that this is so.

Re-member Me today… Remember we are joined as one… Be quiet… Listen… and receive the gifts we share as one…

You will remember this world is not your home… You will remember to extend the peace you are… You will remember to see the truth in everyone you think of… With Me, you will remember oneness…

Herein lies your everlasting joy. Enjoy today.

Holy Spirit to Robert:
All you need to do to be happy is to let Love lead the way. Love and happiness are inseparable. Love knows It is complete and Its joy is in giving Itself. Because Love is complete, the possibility of loss is inconceivable to It.

As you go through your day today, let every action, every thought and every word serve Love and your joy will be complete.

Return to My Self

Mary:
Am I willing to return to my Self today? Am I willing to remember that I am formless Love? Am I willing to see every brother as formless Love?

How willing am I to return to the truth today? If I am willing, I will be aware of the infinite happiness that I am and that is always mine. If I forget, I will get lost in worry and try to solve problem after problem, which will never end in the ego mind.

My job today is to be aware of my willingness to allow truth to return to my mind. My job today is to let go and let God.

Robert:
Today we read in A Course in Miracles that there are no choices of forms in the world that lead anywhere because all forms are illusions. The purpose of the Course is to teach us to recognize illusions for what they are and that they are all the same. The Course also tells us that God’s Will for us is perfect happiness. If I am not experiencing perfect happiness, I am denying God’s Will and have chosen an illusion in Its place.

Today is another opportunity to practice letting Holy Spirit guide all my seeing to recognize illusions for what they are. It is not difficult to forgive when the perceived hurt as recognized as an illusion. When it is recognized that nothing really happened, the perception of hurt disappears. This is why it is essential that I welcome Holy Spirit’s teaching that will help me distinguish illusion from Reality. As that lesson is learned, forgiveness expands and I return to the happiness God wills for me.

Happiness and Love Are Inseparable

Robert:
If I want to be happy, there is only one thing to do: Forgive, let go of the past. Happiness and Love are inseparable. Happiness cannot be experienced where Love is denied. But when barriers to Love are removed, there is happiness.

I am grateful that A Course in Miracles provides comprehensive training in forgiveness. I want to be happy and so I dedicate this day to the practice of sharing each moment with the Holy Spirit that I may see as He sees, free of the past with full attention on now.

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Give time to resting in the truth today. Let your mind quiet and hold My Hand. Let your busy mind relax a while. This opens the window to My healing Light. What I show you transforms what you see. You will see only innocence, which shows you your innocence.

“The sight of Christ is all there is to see. The song of Christ is all there is to hear. The hand of Christ is all there is to hold. There is no journey but to walk with Him.” This is your mission now.

Seeing Only the Loving and the Lovable

Robert:
Recently we watched a video of a Michael Beckwith program that was on PBS. One of the things he said that stood out to me was that when it appears that something has not “worked out,” see it as a delay, not a denial. A delay allows for time for the best circumstances to come together for all concerned. This is a helpful reminder for me.

Over the past months there have been a number of occasions where what I thought was going to happen did not. But in looking back I can see that in each of these instances important lessons were learned. I am learning to open my mind to new possibilities again and again. As the Course says, “perception is selective.” We see only what we are willing to accept. I see that I have been in a progressive training program guided by Spirit to help me let go of self-imposed limits.

This is a very important process that prepares me to more effectively follow Holy Spirit’s lead. When something appears not to work out, it is just a much a part of being carried as when things seem to easily fall into place. Each circumstance is a gift. Disappointment is a lack of recognition of the gift. That disappoint needs to be released to the Holy Spirit so that I can accept the gift. The Course tells us that everything is carefully planned for our best interest. Every moment is a gift. If I don’t see the gift, it is only because I am denying it.

Today I will practice holding my mind open to the Holy Spirit’s vision that I may recognize the gifts that are offered in every moment.

Mary:
Today we were guided to read A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 124, “Let me remember I am one with God.” Paragraph four stood out to me:

Today we will not doubt His love for us nor question His protection and His care. No meaningless anxieties can come between our faith and our awareness of His Presence. We are one with Him today in recognition and remembrance. We feel Him in our hearts. Our minds contain His Thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. Today we see only the loving and the lovable. (ACIM, W-pI.124.4)

This is my practice today: To remember I am one with Love and, as Love, see only the loving and the lovable. My “to do” list contains only this and as I follow through, what a happy day I have to give and receive only Love; to see only the loving and the lovable.

Choose Peace

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Choose peace and the peace you accept will free you from illusions. Peace is freedom from fear and fear is of the ego. Choosing peace frees you from ego thoughts and that is why the ego disappears when peace is chosen.

You always get what you want in your heart of hearts. To free yourself from the bondage of the ego, begin by choosing peace. Peace always dissolves just like darkness cannot stay when the light is turned on. The Light of God is all you really want.

Open the doors to the Light of truth by choosing peace. It will melt away all your fears and bring you the comfort and certainty of your beingness in God. Today practice choosing peace instead of conflict, choosing peace instead of fear. Choosing peace is how you wake up from the dream and know once again that all is well.

Holy Spirit to Robert:
Seek not for safety in the world. The world is unstable and unreliable because it is a dream. Seek instead to remember your Self, to remember your unity with your Source. Your Self was created by the Changeless like Itself. Thus your Self is perfectly safe because It cannot change — It remains as Love created It. Let the Holy Spirit in your mind teach you of your Self and show you that the image you think is you is really nothing and cannot stand between you and your Source, between you and perfect safety.

As you learn to let go of the false images you have made, you will experience more and more peace. You will know your safety cannot be disturbed. From this place of certainty you look past the forms of the world and recognize that their only meaning comes from how they serve Love.

Today as you work with your projects, see their purpose as expressions of Love. If you become aware of any disturbance, you have given them another purpose that is not true. Offer this to the Holy Spirit. He will remove the false purpose for you. You need only let it go to return to peace.
