Do not underestimate the importance of accurate perception for your life’s purpose. So long as perception proceeds from past associations, from memory and habit, so long will real understanding be absent from your life. Without authentic understanding, your mind will simply fluctuate within the narrow limits establish by the ego and accepted by you long ago. Perception must be purified, must be corrected, to free your mind from its narrow range of experience. This tiny space in which your life seems to take place is nothing but a dream of separation and limitation. To be separate from everything you see is to live in fear. To live in fear is to suffer. Is this what you want? You have lived in a state of fear and suffering long enough. Too long has Love and the healing It brings been absent from your life. This need not be. This need not be.” (from From the Christ Mind Book II, p. 185-186)
We have the means to escape from a life experience of uncertainty and fear, pain and guilt. It is the Holy Spirit, ever present in our mind, That can give us a vision that corrects our misperceptions, our false ideas.
Our experience of the world is the effect of what we believe is true. When we believe that we are a separate identity in a world of images, a fearful life experience is inevitable. But when we are willing to bring all our perceptions to the Holy Spirit for His gentle correction, we release ourselves to experience the gifts of love and peace and joy, given us by our Creator.
Today is another blessed day to practice letting go of past false ideas and accept our place in the oneness of Love.
