Healing Is Stepping Back, Listening and Following

Mary:  Over the 4th of July holiday weekend, we had a wonderful experience with Regina and Laurent in a 3 day workshop they gave. We also joined with many old and new friends who joined with us in the workshop. It was a very healing event. We video taped it so in time, you will have the opportunity to view this wonderful joined experience also. This will take some time though, because we are still in the midst of getting this place ready for sale and then moving ourselves to Florida.

This morning when I went to the Course, I opened to Lesson 275. The following prayer particularly stood out to me. I will repeat it here because I want to reinforce its message. “Your healing Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to go; to whom to speak and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your Voice protects all things through me.”

This prayer emphasizes the message we were working with this weekend. If we want to heal we will step back, listen and follow. We will desire above all else to hear His Voice. We want to return to the sanity of oneness. We want to the veil lifted so that we see the face of Christ in everyone. We want to move past the temporal to the awareness of eternity that the holy instant brings us. We want to follow Holy Spirit’s plan above all else.

This is my deepest desire. In order to follow Holy Spirit’s plan only, my job today and every day is to keep an open mind and to join with the Holy Spirit regarding everything that comes into my day. Today we are talking to Realtors both here and in Florida. My only prayer is that I walk through this with the Holy Spirit leading the way.

Robert:  My experience of the weekend was a wonderful rededication and reinforcement of my heart’s desire to follow Holy Spirit’s plan and only Holy Spirit’s plan. That is all that has meaning in this world for me. The way to hold this focus is to maintain a steady alertness to how I am feeling in every moment. The body will always reflect back to me what purpose I am giving it. If I am aligned with the Holy Spirit’s purpose, the body will be relaxed and healthy. I will be at peace. If I am aligned with the ego’s purpose, there will be tension, discomfort, some form of lack of peace. So I always have a wonderful feedback system that tells me what thought system I am aligned with in the moment. Regina’s workshops provided many helpful tools to recognize when I am believing in separation and choosing it and ways to step back from that, let it go and realign with my hearts true desire, which is my true Self.

This reminder of the importance of remaining aligned with the Holy Spirit’s plan comes at a key time for me. The selling of the property in Kiel, the move to Florida and all the many seeming decisions that need to be made with this provide many opportunities to be tempted to think I know how to make the decisions on my own. Vigilance is essential for this to be a peaceful and smooth process. I know with certainty that the Holy Spirit’s plan is always peaceful and gentle and flows with ease. I do not need to make the plan. I do not need to make it happen. I need only keep my mind open to His lead and it will be a marvelous experience of healing and awakening.

I am grateful for the gift that is ever present in every moment that I can receive and move a step closer to the full realization of the truth of What I am.
