Holy Spirit to Mary:
Let today be a practice in letting yourself be carried. To practice this through the day, let go of trying to make anything “happen.” Instead of trying to make anything happen, practice stepping back and allowing yourself to be carried through it. Wait and listen for peaceful inner direction.
Open to an awareness of peace that is always present, waiting for your acceptance. Let peace guide you. Let peace carry you through each activity you encounter today. Be consciously aware that you are allowing peace to lead the way. Be consciously aware of no efforting on your part.
Be consciously aware that you are stepping back right now and permitting yourself to be led by your true Self. As ego opinions pop up, notice them and put them on Holy Spirit’s altar. If they are not true, they will disappear in God’s healing Light.
Let yourself feel the confidence that comes with your acceptance of being led by the Holy Spirit. Feel the softness and gentleness that comes with it. Let yourself feel the happiness and lack of stress as you allow yourself to be immersed in Holy Spirit’s constant gift of peace and sense of well being.
If any aspect of conflict shows up, quickly hand it over to the Holy Spirit’s healing Light and watch it dissolve in Holy Spirit’s sea of peace. Let yourself become aware of just how much you are being carried as you allow it through the day. Enjoy the gifts of peace and quiet inner happiness that come with allowing yourself to be carried through your day today.
This wonderful practice will motivate you to step back even more as your practice continues each day. With this continuous practice, you become more and more aware of how much constant help you have throughout the day. You feel that angels are surrounding you. Enjoy this important practice of letting yourself be carried today.
Robert:
A Course in Miracles tells us that Love is happiness. We are happy when we extend Love. And when we are happy, we automatically extend Love. Thus if I am not happy, I must be denying the Love that I am.
Unhappiness is a signal that there is a need to forgive. Unforgiveness is a denial of Love. While it may appear that there is a person, situation or event that needs to be forgiven, beneath those forms it is really just a need to forgive God for His unwillingness to give us specialness and thereby make us separate.
Sometimes it’s helpful to recognize a specific situation that we are judging or feeling guilty about so that we can offer that perception to the Holy Spirit. But there is much that we have denied and buried in unconsciousness that we may not realize what it is we are denying. Still we can offer that to the Holy Spirit for forgiveness as well. One way of doing this is to use the basic process of ho’oponopono — say to the Divine, “I’m sorry. I love you. Please forgive me. Thank you.” In this process it is not really the Divine we are asking to forgive us, for It has never judged us. We are really asking to forgive ourselves for denying our unity with God.
Recently I was aware of a perception of being slighted. I could consciously see that it was meaningless, yet my peace was disturbed. So I did this little process, repeating it several times until peace returned to my mind. Occasionally the thought would come back and I repeated the process until the thought no longer disturbed my peace.
This perceived slight was just an image representing the belief that I am separate from my brother. As I practice forgiving or letting go of the thought of separation, I no longer perceive situations that demonstrate separation. More and more the Love in my heart joins with the Love in all. Happiness fills my heart which overflows with gratitude. In this world forgiveness opens the door to God’s gift of Love and happiness.
