Robert:
The world is a scary place. Its chaotic and unreliable. Everything is constantly changing. My old habit has been to try to find a circumstance, a situation, a relationship that will give me some sense of safety and protection from this scary world. Hidden behind this searching are beliefs that if I only had a certain amount of money in reserve, if someone would only behave in a certain way, if things would work the way I want them to work, then I would be safe. I’ve tried this approach for 65 years and it has never really worked. Its time to give that up and open my mind to a better way.
There is a place of changelessness and certainty, of safety and of peace. There is a place of joy that can never be disturbed or interrupted. In truth I am in this place now and have never left It. But in dreaming of separation, I have turned my back on It, imagining that I have left it behind and so I seem to be in a world of fear.
To return to full awareness that I am in the Home I have never really left, I need to let go of the vain imaginings that hide the truth from me. That is all. I am grateful that there is a Guide in my mind to help me recognize the fearful imaginings for what they are and help me let them go. This is what I want to and must seek today. This is where I will find the safety, the peace and the happiness that cannot be found in the images of the world.
Holy Spirit, I rest in You today, certain of Your Love and Your gentle guidance, certain of Your strength and grateful for the Light You shine upon the way that leads me Home. I choose the Light today for I would remember that It is my Home.
Mary:
My mantra for today is “let go and let God.” When I say these words, I am reminded to soften and breathe deeply. I am reminded to let go of what I think is “going on.” This helps me loosen my grip on what I am seeing through the body’s eyes and remember that everything I see through the body’s eyes is but a dream. I am reminded that my inner Teacher is in my mind, waiting to bring me the awareness that I am still as God created me and that nothing has really changed God’s one Son. We all are Love’s extension and nothing else. The feeling of God’s peace gets stronger as I let the veil be lifted.
“Let go and let God” is a very helpful tool for me today to bring me back to the truth when I forget. It brings my mind to a place of inner quiet and rest. I thank the Holy Spirit, my constant Companion, for Its infinite patience with me as I go back and forth between forgetting and remembering. The Holy Spirit is always there to return my mind to the truth, as I am willing to remember.
I love this place of inner calm and quiet. I am grateful for the deep inner peace it brings. I remember that we are all safe in the mind of God and have never left. I remember that there is no world outside my mind. There is no world outside the one Mind of God and I am thankful that this is so. From this place of inner quiet, I may see the stories of traumas and dramas, but I can carry the remembering that they really do not matter and that they will fall gently away as I forgive or let them go through Holy Spirit’s guidance. Thank you Holy Spirit.
