Your mind is constantly active, constantly thinking, constantly choosing, and is ruled by its past habits, tendencies, and experiences. Unless corrected it will simply repeat the past and reinforce the hold the past has on the present. You must continually correct your mind in the present by being aware of its activity, and consciously choosing what is true, again and again, with the help of the Holy Spirit. This constant correction is fundamental and absolutely necessary. (From the Christ Mind p. 93. Click here for more information about this book.)
The Holy Spirit is with us all through the day, whether we are aware of It or not. To free ourselves from the bondage of the ego thought system, we must be willing to become aware of the Holy Spirit’s gentle correction throughout the day. This takes some vigilance because the ego mind defends against our awakening to the truth. If we let it, it keeps us constantly busy with a never-ending stream of solving problems in the world.
Our practice for today is to make it our highest priority to open our minds to receive Holy Spirit’s gentle correction all through the day. As we are willing to let go of our interpretations, our minds are open to a Holy Spirit’s way of seeing. We are open to the gift of true perception, which frees us from the past and leads us to the gates of Heaven.
