Robert:
I remain as Love created me. I am not the image of myself that I have made that is separate, limited to a body. When I identify with this limited self-concept, I feel alone and weak, fearful and guilty, unworthy of Love. When I believe I am this self-concept, I am believing I have turned my back on Love.
A Course in Miracles is telling me that this is just a false idea. I have a Teacher in my mind Who is always ready to show me the truth of my Self. To receive this truth, I must be willing to let go of the concept of myself I have made. This seems hard to do because I have made this self-concept my identity through my belief. It seems that if I let go of this identity, there will be nothing left. I will disappear into nothingness. That is what the ego would have me believe.
But the truth is that if I let go of this false identity, what will be revealed is a Self so full of joy, so loving and so peaceful that it is beyond anything that can be experienced in the world of form. As I step back and let Holy Spirit guide me, I gradually learn that I really do want to remember that I am the Self that Love created, unchanged and unchangeable. I don’t have to keep making a limited self-image any more. I can step back and let Holy Spirit show me the purity of Love that I share with all my brothers.
Mary:
It is my opportunity today to focus on the purity of Love That is the only Reality of everyone that I see in this world, including myself. The purity of Love… I let the Holy Spirit show me again and again and again the purity of Love that is there to see as I am willing. This is my practice for today.
