Would you know the Will of God for you? Ask it of me who knows it for you and you will find it. I will deny you nothing, as God denies me nothing. Ours is simply the journey back to God Who is our home. Whenever fear intrudes anywhere along the road to peace, it is because the ego has attempted to join the journey with us and cannot do so. Sensing defeat and angered by it, the ego regards itself as rejected and becomes retaliative. You are invulnerable to its retaliation because I am with you. On this journey you have chosen me as your companion instead of the ego. Do not attempt to hold on to both, or you will try to go in different directions and will lose the way.
Never accord the ego the power to interfere with the journey. It has none, because the journey is the way to what is true. Leave all illusions behind, and reach beyond all attempts of the ego to hold you back. I go before you because I am beyond the ego. Reach, therefore, for my hand because you want to transcend the ego. My strength will never be wanting, and if you choose to share it you will do so. I give it willingly and gladly, because I need you as much as you need me. (A Course in Miracles, T-8.V.5;6:4-10. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)
The Holy Spirit is our constant Companion, ready and willing to guide us back to our Home in God. The Holy Spirit is in our mind, but not the part of our mind that has chosen the ego as its guide. The ego not only does not know the way Home, it defends against our return Home. We resist the Holy Spirit’s guidance on our journey while we choose to identify with the ego because the ego is afraid of the Holy Spirit and of God. The ego knows that if we choose to follow the Holy Spirit, the ego will be recognized as powerless and in truth, non existent.
Today and every day we can choose to rely on the strength and Love of the Holy Spirit as our Guide on the journey Home. Each time we are willing to exchange our perceptions for the Holy Spirit’s vision, the ego’s illusions fade. We free ourselves to see past the illusions to the truth of our oneness with the Love in every brother and the Love of God, our Home.
