Only Oneness Is Meaningful

Robert: It’s remarkable how easy it is to overwhelm myself with my plans. I think I can see all these different pieces that need to be dealt with in preparation for moving. A Course in Miracles tells us that the ego thinks the way to understand something is to break it in parts and break the parts into more parts and analyze them. This is how the ego makes the world seem complicated. So attempting to deal with all the little pieces is a sure sign that I’m buying into the ego’s idea of separate parts being meaningful. But in truth, only oneness is meaningful and trying to break oneness into parts obscures the meaning and makes it inconceivable.

The antidote to the feeling of being overwhelmed by so many pieces is to step back and reconnect with Holy Spirit within. The Holy Spirit will gently lead me back to the recognition of oneness in the present moment. All the little pieces are symbols that can be expressions of the Holy Spirit’s plan in the world. My job is to stay focused in the present and hold my mind open to the Holy Spirit’s lead. The pieces will fall easily into place without my effort if I simply step back and let Him lead the way.

Holy Spirit:  Remember to pause for peace. This simple little exercise repeated often through the day helps you remain open to My lead. It clears your mind, freeing you from the self-made confusion of disconnected parts. Pause for peace. A simple, relaxing breath, a brief halt in your activity will help you maintain your center of peace. The seeming external chaos will not disturb you because you will not attempt to bring order to the chaos on your own.

Remember, on your own you are part of the chaos. But joined with Me there can be no chaos because joined with Me you are accepting your unity with the oneness of Love. This practice of pausing for peace frequently will help you function with ease in the dream because it will help you know that you are not of the dream. Walk you in peace with your head held high as you let the Light within you illuminate your way Home. It is a walk to joy.

Holy Spirit through Mary:  The world is filled with distractions. In fact it is one big distraction dreamed up to forget your Identity in God. Once you realize that this is true, you can give everything in the world a new meaning. You can ask yourself of everything, “Am I using this as a distraction to hide my awareness of Love’s Presence? Or, is this a useful tool for the Holy Spirit to use for awakening purposes?” Remembering this will help you stay in close communication with Me all through the day.

Ask, “How can I be truly helpful right now? How can I use what is right before me for Holy Spirit’s purposes?” This provides an opportunity for Me to guide your day. This provides an opportunity for mind healing. This provides an opportunity to receive My peace and extend My peace. This how to have a happy day.
