Letting the Holy Spirit Decide Everything

⁴Peace abides in every mind that quietly accepts the plan God set for its Atonement, relinquishing its own. ⁵You know not of salvation, for you do not understand it. ⁶Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but ask the Holy Spirit everything, and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel.

The One Who knows the plan of God that God would have you follow can teach you what it is. ²Only His wisdom is capable of guiding you to follow it. ³Every decision you undertake alone but signifies that you would define what salvation is, and what you would be saved from. ⁴The Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from guilt.

Let Him, therefore, be the only Guide that you would follow to salvation. ²He knows the way, and leads you gladly on it. …⁷Forget Him not and He will make every decision for you, for your salvation and the peace of God in you. (A Course in Miracles, T-14.III.12:4–13:4;14:1-2,7. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

We have a very simple task that flies in the face of everything the ego asks of us. Our simple task is to ask the Holy Spirit everything. Let Him decide everything on our behalf. He knows what will lead us to awaken from the ego’s dream of conflict and guilt to the full awareness that we are one with our Creator and the Love that unites us with every brother.

This practice will lead us to perfect peace. We will practice frequently today to ask Holy Spirit to decide for us what to say and what to do. We are grateful for His loving presence in our mind.
