I love you for the truth in you, as God does. Your deceptions may deceive you, but they cannot deceive me. Knowing what you are, I cannot doubt you. I hear only the Holy Spirit in you, Who speaks to me through you. If you would hear me, hear my brothers in whom God’s Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies [in the Holy Spirit] in them. You will be answered as you hear the [Holy Spirit’s] answer in everyone. Do not listen to anything else, or you will not hear truly. (A Course in MiraclesT-9.II.7)
My practice for today is to hear only the Holy Spirit in every brother. If I pause and listen within, the Holy Spirit will speak to me through every brother. As I learn to focus on the Holy Spirit in every brother instead of a separate individual, I am helped to see the truth in myself. I am helped to see the real world instead of the false world of the ego.
This is God’s Answer to my prayer to awaken. As I strengthen the practice of seeing every brother as he truly is, I am blessed by every brother I come into contact with. What a wonderful practice to have for this beautiful day! This practice will turn every special relationship into a holy relationship. And for this I give thanks.
The truth in everyone is the one Self we share that is God’s one Son. To see the truth I need to set aside the false images made by the ego thought of separation that blind me to the truth. The truth is everywhere to be seen. Being eternal, the truth can never go away. But the choice to believe that separation is real makes me unaware of the truth, even though it is still present, now.
The practice of accepting Holy Spirit’s help to see past the deceiving images to the truth in my brother is how I awaken to the truth in myself. I am grateful that today I can join with the Holy Spirit and accept His help to see truly. This practice moves me closer to undoing the dream of self-deception.
