Mary: This morning during our reading of A Course in Miracles, one sentence that particularly stood out to me was, “Remember that all sense of weakness is associated with the belief you are a body.” (Lesson 91)
When I feel uncertain or afraid, it is very helpful for me to remember that all sense of weakness comes from the belief that I am a body. It doesn’t seem like it, but I know that this is true. My job now with every thought of vulnerability or weakness is to hand it over to the Holy Spirit in my mind.
As I truly hand it over, the Holy Spirit dissolves these thoughts which allows the Light that lies beyond the thoughts to shine through and bring me peace. I always have the answer that heals these false ideas when I am willing to not keep them but hand them over. If I am not feeling peace and happiness, then I can know that somewhere I am keeping these false ideas. The only answer that works is to move into a place of quietness and allow the Holy Spirit to do Its healing work in my mind. I must be willing to let my mind quiet and the Holy Spirit will do the rest.
This is very reassuring to know that there is only one problem and one solution. The problem stems from the belief that I am a body. The solution lies in my willingness to let my mind be quiet and hand over these thoughts. It is here that I find my real strength. It is here that I find a real experience of the Light that is always in my mind. It is here that I am quietly shown my true Identity. I am Spirit at Home in Heaven. This is true and only this is true. From this place of remembering the truth, trust is easy.
Holy Spirit to Robert: When you allow yourself to rest in deep peace, you experience the strength and safety of your Self. This is all you really want. This strength is within your reach because it is what you are. The more you are willing to allow yourself to accept peace and to turn over all disturbances to Me and let Me resolve them, the more you will know as personal experience your real Strength.
All perception of weakness comes from belief in a false image of what you are. You made the belief and so you cannot undo it on your own, but I am ever present to provide the vision that shines Light upon the false idea to show you its emptiness and it will disappear into the nothingness from which it came.
Your only function is to offer Me all those thoughts of disturbance. Let them go into My hands. Leave the rest to Me. It is this letting go that opens your heart and mind to the full awareness that you are at Home in Heaven.
Holy Spirit to Dorie: Offer all your thoughts to My healing Light, for in releasing them, you receive total peace. Let My Love envelop your heart and mind and bring you to the full realization that only Love is real.
