Do not despair, then, because of limitations. It is your function to escape from them, but not to be without them. If you would be heard by those who suffer, you must speak their language. If you would be a savior, you must understand what needs to be escaped. Salvation is not theoretical. Behold the problem, ask for the answer, and then accept it when it comes. Nor will its coming be long delayed. All the help you can accept will be provided, and not one need you have will not be met. Let us not, then, be too concerned with goals for which you are not ready. God takes you where you are and welcomes you. What more could you desire, when this is all you need? (A Course in Miracles, M-26.4)
We always have all the help we need to awaken from the dream of separation. If it seems difficult to forgive, to let go of the belief that the world of form is real, it is only because part of us is reluctant to accept the help. Gratefully our small willingness opens the door for help to come in that begins the process of freeing us from our self-imposed limitations.
Each time we turn to the Holy Spirit for help, we open the door further to receive the help we need. The Holy Spirit never gives up on us. We just need to keep practicing. We need to bring our thoughts of fear, guilt, lack and limitation to the Holy Spirit, moment by moment, with willingness to accept His help.
With this practice we will accept more and more help. Difficulties that seemed overwhelming become easier and easier to pass by. More and more we will be able to see the unity we have with all our brothers. Old habits of judgment will weaken as we turn over our judgments to the Holy Spirit to judge on our behalf.
He will always show us the Love and innocence beyond all the forms of the world. We will see it in our brothers and recognize it in ourselves more and more. We dedicate today to the practice of accepting Holy Spirit’s help.
