Accepting Holy Spirit’s Help

Robert:
Now that we have completed the moving of all of our equipment and furnishings from St. Cloud to Sanford, Florida, we have the opportunity to practice staying in the present moment as we unpack and find places for the many little things that we use in our daily activity. Like everything else in this world, if I am willing to let the Holy Spirit guide, He will use each circumstance on behalf of demonstrating what’s valuable and what’s valueless, what’s helpful and what does not serve.

What’s important is that I make no decisions on my own. This is a training opportunity in which I can accept Holy Spirit’s lessons in awakening or turn my back and do it alone. When I try to do it alone, I simply reinforce the sense of separation and isolation that comes with the ego thought system. Very quickly the process of something as simple as unpacking boxes becomes stressful.

Thinking I need to make decisions on my own will always bring stress with it, because it is attempting to maintain the unnatural state of seeming to be separate from God. This is not what I want. I choose instead to hold Holy Spirit’s hand in all my doing and let Him use each moment as a lesson in awakening. I am deeply grateful to know that I have this choice and I choose it now.

Mary:
We have had so much activity lately that it is nice to have time to be quiet… God is found in stillness. Allowing time for stillness and letting my mind quiet of all worldly activities is very important for me to be truly helpful in this world. Giving time for receiving God’s infinite peace is very important…

In this place of inner quiet, the veil is lifted and God’s gift of peace is received and extended. God’s gift of inner happiness and sense of well being is received and extended to all…

There is a world beyond this world that we all belong to… It is our Home… Giving time to accepting the real world that the Holy Spirit brings has great value and I am willing to accept it now… It is only as I am willing to receive the truth that I can extend the truth… This is my job today. This is how I help myself and every brother.
