You are part of Reality, which stands unchanged beyond the reach of your ego but within easy reach of Spirit. When you are afraid, be still and know that God is real, and you are His beloved Son in whom He is well pleased.
The ego is afraid of the Spirit’s joy, because once you have experienced it you will withdraw all protection from the ego, and become totally without investment in fear. Your investment [in fear] is great now because fear is a witness to the separation, and your ego rejoices when you witness to [separation]. Leave it behind! Do not listen to it and do not preserve it. Listen only to God, Who is as incapable of deception as is the Spirit He created.
Of your ego you can do nothing to save yourself or others, but of your Spirit you can do everything for the salvation of both. (A Course in Miracles, T-4.I.8:5-6;10:1-5;12:1. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)
Today we practice listening to God, our Source. We open to the Spirit of Joy Which is God’s gift to us as we open to Him. With God, our values are set straight. We are willing to let go of wandering in the wilderness of the ego’s false values.
As we go through our day, we continue to practice choosing peace, which opens our mind to that Light of Love’s oneness. As we let the remembrance of Love’s Presence return to our mind, we give It joyfully as we have received. All this comes naturally and effortlessly as we choose peace to find Spirit’s joy.
