Keep It Simple


Sharyn:
  When I think about what I have to do today, or about planning my agenda, the words that come to me from Holy Spirit are: Keep it simple. Remember the ego loves to complicate things, ideas or plans.  The more complicated your life becomes, or your plans become, the more the ego love it.

So, from now on, in planning anything, I must remember Holy Spirit’s words—to keep it simple. And of course, I must make no plans without first going to Holy Spirit, for He is the only one That knows what is best for me. He only has my highest good in His Mind.

When you think about Love, does that seem complicated? Isn’t Love easy? It is so easy to give someone a smile, a hug or the gift of peace, and it is so simple. If things or situations seem difficult, it surely means that the ego is behind it, because Holy Spirit only wants us to have peace, Love and joy. Holy Spirit knows that Love is simple and uncomplicated.

Sometimes when you go to Holy Spirit for answers, you might think, “Gee, that was just a vague message, or it seemed so simple.” That’s because it is so simple. It is your ego mind that thinks it has to be more, or there has to be more to this, or more to that. That is untrue. So today, keep it simple. Just watch how beautifully your tasks will unfold in peace.



Holy Spirit through Mary:
  The Holy Spirit’s plan will teach you how to accept God’s peace, God’s joy and God’s Love. The Holy Spirit’s plan will teach you to accept your true inheritance as the Son of God. The Holy Spirit’s plan will show you God’s Oneness, and that there is no other. Accept Holy Spirit’s plan instead of your own. Take it one step, one day at a time, one hour at a time. Practice opening your mind to Holy Spirit’s gentle, loving presence, right now and in every now moment.

As you accept the Holy Spirit as your Teacher and learn Its lessons, you will experience an inner transformation that is beyond words. It is a peace and joy that is beyond this world. This is the inner renovation that you are working on day by day, right now. Trust and follow.


Robert:
  Yesterday’s message recommended that I pause for peace throughout the day. As the day turned out, that practice helped me keep my sanity. It seemed every time I went into a different room, something new came up to be done. Most of the time I remembered to pause for peace. Then I asked, “What is it for me to do in this moment?” Sometimes what came to me was to set aside what I had been doing and take care of what just presented itself. Other times it was clear to disregard this new thing that had come up and stick with what I had been doing. When I was guided to set aside what I was doing for a new thing, I was able to come back to what I had been doing before at another time and complete it.

In the past with days like that I would feel stressed and rattled. But remembering to pause for peace carried me gently through the day. Some things I thought I needed to get done during the day didn’t get done. But at the end of the day I saw that I really did not need to get those things done. It really does work to step back and follow Holy Spirit’s plan. The form in the world comes together easily because it reflects Holy Spirit’s ease. I am grateful for the idea of pausing for peace and I look forward to another day of practice because I know this practice opens the door to Holy Spirit’s gifts.
