Accept God’s Peace

Mary:
My practice today is to accept God’s peace. This is at the top of my to-do list today. To the ego, this seems quite unimportant and a waste of time. To the Holy Spirit, accepting peace opens the door to receive all of God’s gifts.

As I practice accepting God’s peace and letting it fill all the corners of my mind, a sense of gentleness and well being comes with it. A sense that everything is all right comes with it. All sense of urgency disappears. Accepting God’s peace truly is the gateway to the lawns of Heaven. The hourly practice of accepting God’s peace brings on the happy dream where the awareness of Love’s Presence is felt. I more easily remember that I am still as God created me and I am one with every brother in truth. The dream scenarios are taken lightly. The heaviness of the world’s stories is lifted. And there is a great tendency to be lighthearted instead of heavyhearted.

This truly is an important practice that I have today to make choosing God’s peace my highest priority. Oh happy day!

Robert:
Recently I received a phone call from a friend who wanted help with a concern. As we talked, I was reminded how easily I make up stories about perceived circumstances. I start with a little bit of information, severely limited by the tiny range of my perception, and make up stories to fill in the missing information.

When I get into this mode, the stories I make up are scary because they come from a belief that I am separate. This is why the training offered in the Workbook of A Course in Miracles is so helpful. It reminds me that I give everything I see all the meaning it has for me and encourages me to be determined above all else to see differently.

That willingness is essential for me to be open to accepting Holy Spirit’s view and interpretation. While I believe I am on my own it is impossible for me to interpret anything correctly. I need to be willing to receive the Holy Spirit’s vision, which sees beyond form and time and reveals the truth.

Above all else today I am determined to welcome and accept Holy Spirit’s vision.
