Allowing Peace to Lead Your Thoughts and Actions

When we went to Holy Spirit for insight, we received the following:

Robert:  Stay in peace. Make all decisions from a state of peace. Fear and peace cannot co-exist. If you are not in peace you are in fear, a sign of underlying guilt. Vigilance for peace is your way out of the dream of separation and guilt. Peace comes with forgiveness, letting go of attachment to any form, any image, any thought of separation.

To be in peace, you must let go of all preconceived ideas of what “should be.” Making plans on your own is unforgiveness. It is an attempt to bring the past, which is only remembered in unforgiveness and to use the past to construct an image of the future. A healed mind does not plan because a healed mind has let the past go.

As you are awakening from the dream of isolation, the Holy Spirit, your true Self, will guide your doing in the dream. The Holy Spirit’s purpose for your doing is always to lead you out of the dream. The ego on the other hand, sees all doing as a means to make the separation seem real. When you choose to open to the peace of your true Self, you choose to leave the ego behind and to open to the guidance that leads you Home. Choose peace and find freedom.

Mary: To choose peace, start by taking a deep breath and exhale slowly. Continue taking several slow, deep breaths until you feel yourself moving into a more relaxed state. Focus on the idea of just letting everything go. Focus on the idea of letting your mind be an empty bowl. Then ask the Holy Spirit to fill that empty bowl with Its healing Light.

Allow yourself to feel the healing Light as it fills your mind. Allow yourself to feel the peace that is replacing all the conflicted thoughts that were there before. Welcome the feeling of peace as it grows stronger in your mind. Thank Holy Spirit for this healing gift. Let yourself relax in God’s gift of peace.

From this place of infinite peace, ask Holy Spirit for insight that would be most helpful for you right now. When I ask, this is what I receive:

Practice staying in this place of peace and let yourself be directed in each now moment. Let go of the past and the future. Just let yourself be guided in the present moment. Allow the feeling of resting in God to come to the surface of your mind. As you continue to rest in God, what you need to do will be made known to you in each present moment. As you do each thing, continue remembering that you rest in God and that this is your only truth. This is how you let the Holy Spirit lead. Try this today.
