Your picture of the world can only mirror what is within. The source of neither light nor darkness can be found without. Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you look upon a world of light. (A Course in Miracles W-pI.73.5:1-4)
I am always getting feedback on whether I am joining with the ego or the Holy Spirit. What I see in the outside world is always only mirroring what I believe is within. I am learning to realize that what I see “out there” is there because I put it there. When I see guilt out there, I have joined with the ego. When I see that there is only Love or a call for Love, I am joining with the Holy Spirit.
This feedback is very helpful to me in recognizing when I need to step back and let Holy Spirit lead the way once again. My practice for today is to be vigilant to monitor what I think is happening in this world of separate bodies with separate minds. Right now, am I willing to remember the truth of Love’s oneness? I give thanks that I have this constant feedback reminding me to let go of ego’s thoughts of separation when they come up and, instead, accept Holy Spirit’s healed perception.
Holy Spirit, guide my seeing today. Help me recognize the projections that reflect belief that I am something other than God’s extension of Love. Help me to see that the belief behind the projection is based on a false idea and is therefore nothing. Help me to see its powerlessness, for I would choose Your strength, which is in truth my own.
