The Happy Dream

Holy Spirit to Mary: Rest in God today where He would have you be. Step back and let yourself be carried through this day. Be still and listen. Follow as you are guided. Relax and receive the Gifts of God today.


Holy Spirit to Robert:
  God’s gifts are everywhere. But if you judge the wrappings, you do not recognize them. God’s gifts are not contained by form. To receive them you must allow them into your experience. His gifts are always Love. They bring with them deep peace and quiet joy. Today allow yourself to be shown the gifts of God that are ever present. You will see them walking down the street, in the store, in your thoughts. To recognize them, lay all judgement aside. Thus you remove the veil that has hidden the gifts that are always there.


Annie:
After we read about the happy dream this morning, Spirit reminded me of a song from our childhood, as if to tell me that it was also a message about the happy dream. The song is, “Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream.” It made me smile to think of this and I think I’ll smile all day.


Holy Spirit to Dorie:
  Reach out today. Extend the hand of peace with a heart full of joy. Know that in all things Holy Spirit supports your very being. You are the Love. You are the Daughter of God. Be confident in this and extend Love fearlessly. Give without judgment of any kind. Give freely, knowing that giving and receiving are one.


Holy Spirit to Sharyn:
  Love and oneness are one and the same. So when you realize that you are only Love, you also must realize your oneness. Not only is your oneness with God, but it is with everyone, as everyone is Love. Love always extends. It never clings to or hangs on to anything. It is a constant flow. When you are extending Love to a brother, remember you are also extending it to yourself, as you are one with everyone. The more you extend Love and Light, the brighter your world will be, the happier your world will be. You will feel the happy dream.

Receiving God’s Grace

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Rest in the grace of God’s Love. He has not changed His mind about you. He knows you as the Love He is. By His knowing you remain changeless as God. You remain invulnerable to mistaken ideas and false concepts.

No matter what you may believe you are, His grace holds you in the certainty of Love. Be grateful this is so. It is your salvation. Lay aside your weird imaginings that you could be anything but Love. His grace has given you the means to do this. You can return to full awareness of the Home you never left.


Holy Spirit to Mary:
  You are in the process of letting go of your belief in individuality and differences. I am leading you to the awareness that only God is. Your job now is to step back and receive the truth instead of deciding what you see with your body’s eyes means on your own. Your job is to surrender, let go of the reins, and listen. This requires a willingness to let your mind quiet and be still. This is your learning now. As you are willing to learn this lesson, peace grows stronger and joy fills your heart. Let this time be now.


Self to Annie:
  You have been given all the help you need to awaken. Accept this grace now. It is yours by divine assignment.


Holy Spirit to Sharyn:
  Love is the only Answer that there is. There is nothing else. In every situation, see only the Love and let the rest fall away. Any opinions, judgments or thinking you know what is best in situations is all false ideas and of the ego. Listen in quiet to My voice and remember to ask Me. If you ask me how I would see it through My eyes, I will gladly share it with you. Take time today ask Me to bring you clarity, to give you answers from Truth. The answers will not bring you pain but peace of mind.

The Call to Stillness

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Only Love has value. In the world Love is reflected as forgiveness and helpfulness. Because Love does not judge and is only in the Present, It is reflected in the world as letting go of judgment, letting go of the past. Because Love is one, it sees all brothers as one with It. That is why in the world Love is expressed as helpfulness in answer to all calls for Love. Make today a reflection of Love in the world by letting go of the past and offering only Love, only helpfulness in each moment.


Self to Annie:
  There is a call to stillness in every mind. It is in the still mind that we will find Who we are looking for. Our Self waits for us there. Our awakened mind lives in this stillness. Answering the call will take us there.


Holy Spirit to Sharyn:
  Today be aware of the thoughts that are coming from your mind. If they are not loving or blaming or judgmental, be sure to hand them over to Me for healing to take place. Remember, beautiful thoughts create beautiful experiences. You will create beautiful experiences once your thoughts are aligned with Me. Have a beautiful, love-filled day. Experience all the beauty that is around you and within you.


Holy Spirit to Mary:
  Let today be very simple. Let your mind quiet and listen. Let yourself feel the peace of the Holy Spirit in you and from this peace flows the simplicity of God’s Love. Allow yourself to be carried in the simplicity of Love. The ego need not distract you unless you want it. Let the simplicity of the Holy Spirit’s peace help you remember where you are always.

The Way Home

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Let your inner communication with Me be strong all through the day today. Remember that I am always right here in your mind, waiting for you to let your mind quiet and be still, again and again, so I can be heard over the din of ego thoughts that make the world seem so real to you.

Take breaks from your many activities frequently today to let peace wash through your mind, cleansing away the false ideas that are not helpful to you. Hold on to nothing. Let each moment be fresh and new by receiving My inspiration consistently. Allow Me the time to fill your heart with joy and peace. Let yourself receive My gifts all through the day. Let yourself remember that I am here in your mind every moment of your day.


Holy Spirit to Robert:
  Do not allow yourself to be caught up in evaluating appearances. The very idea of an appearance is a deception. The reality of Love is not an appearance; It does not have a form that changes. When you try to evaluate, categorize and label appearances, the ego is attempting to make the error of separation seem real.

Choosing the ego as your interpreter only reinforces your sense of isolation and vulnerability. Instead, choose Me as your Interpreter. I will teach you how to see beyond all appearances to the reality of Love that is ever present. With this comes a certainty of your invulnerability and your oneness with all. In every moment you choose your interpreter. I offer you the gift that leads you to the remembrance of your Home in Heaven. See through My eyes today and let Me show you the way Home.

Which Guest Would You Invite Today?

Holy Spirit to Mary: Be gentle with yourself and be gentle with others, for nothing has really happened that could ever change God’s one Son. Patience comes easily when you remember What is eternally real. See past the ego to the Holy Spirit in every brother, because only This is real.

Watch for when you are believing in what is not real. Watch for when you are making the error real. Does this make you happy? If not, then maybe you are willing to let it go.

Let Me order your thoughts. Let Me bring you the truth. In order to do this, you must make space for Me in your mind for I will not go where I have not been invited. Which guest do you want to join with today, Me or the ego? You will tell which guest you have invited by how you feel. I bring peace and the ego brings stress and fear. Which do you choose today?


Holy Spirit to Robert:
  You try to make up stories about what the future will bring, but you have no meaningful basis for the stories you make up. At best you try to use what you learned in the past to write a script of the future. This is simply unforgiveness. To know the deep peace, quiet joy and eternal Love that is already given you, you must fully let go of the past. You must forgive. Without the past your mind is clear and open to receive the glorious Present.

Concern about anything is an unforgiving thought. Bring it to Me and let Me show you the changelessness that lies beyond the veil of unforgiveness. Let no disturbances dwell in your holy mind. Give them all to Me and I will shine the Light of Love upon them to reveal the truth beyond the illusion. I am not fooled by made up images. Let Me lead you past them to the safety of your Home.

Standing in the Circle of Light

Robert:  I had an image of standing in the Circle of Light. The Circle was singing the opening lines of the Beetles song, “I love you, yeah, yeah, yeah…” I stood there soaking in that Love. God is always singing this to us. His Love is eternal and is never withheld. To rest in the comfort of His Love, I need only accept It.

This world is the effect of denying this Love. But I don’t have to believe it any more. Forgiveness is the means to let go of the denial. By letting go of the past, I open my heart and mind to the experience of God’s present Love. With the help of the Holy Spirit in my mind I can see through the past to the brilliant Light of Love that is now. I am willing to let Holy Spirit guide my seeing.


Holy Spirit to Mary:
Let your heart and mind be a receptacle for God’s peace. Let yourself feel it fully. Let peace fill you up and overflow as you extend it to all. Let yourself remain in that place of receiving God’s Gift of peace and extending God’s Gift of peace. Receive the Gift and extend the Gift. Let this be your practice today. Peace and understanding go together and are never found alone.

Live in the Stillness

Holy Spirit to Sharyn: As you accept the gift of peace more and more, you will realize there are less and less words. You will have no need to think you have to have something to say to contribute to a conversation. You become more of an observer. Rejoice when you get the feeling there is no need to talk or communicate. Living in the stillness and quiet allows you to hear My gentle voice more and more, remembering you have nothing to prove, nothing to say.

Just accept. Accepting what is allows you a greater feeling than you have felt before. Accept the freedom. Accept the Love that is just waiting for you and accept the stillness. Loving what Is is so very, very important. Not trying to change, configure, or think you need to say something to be important is also very important. Accept the Love that surrounds you. Accept His Gift that is so patiently waiting for you. Today, say yes to God. Yes, I will accept your Gift. Amen.


Holy Spirit to Dorie:
  This applies to actions as well as words: You need do nothing. Allowing Spirit to guide means waiting, not striving, listening, not speaking. This is essential for your peace in each day. Know only Love and you will have only peace.


Holy Spirit to Mary:  Today, focus on allowing yourself to be carried. Allow times of quiet, allow times of listening to your inner teacher. Allow time to let peace lead the way. Just follow how peace leads you. This is all you need to have a happy day.


Holy Spirit to Robert:
  There is no journey but to walk with Me. As you walk with Me, we share the single purpose given us by Love. While it appears to you that you are in the world, the purpose of Love is reflected as forgiveness. Love is now, it knows no past or future. Unforgiveness is an attempt to bring the past to the present. To express the purpose that Love has given you, you must release the past, or forgive. Today remember our shared journey in the present. As we walk together, the past fades away and the Light of Love is all you see.
