Robert: In every moment I have a choice of who I choose as my companion. When I choose the ego, I experience lack and loss, guilt and fear. When I choose Holy Spirit, I experience peace, happiness, Love and safety.
Lesson 156 tells us that we make this choice a thousand times a day. Because I have unconsciously and habitually chosen the ego as my companion, I now need to be vigilant and mindful of my thoughts. I need to be aware if my present thought is one of Love or fear, peace or conflict. If I notice any lack of peace, I need to take that thought to the Holy Spirit and choose Him as my companion. He will shine the Light of Love on that thought. In that Light, the illusion will be recognized as what it is and easily dismissed.
With the “economic crisis” that is the major topic of discussion and news in the U.S., this is a time to heighten our vigilance to choose our mighty Companion, Who reminds us in each moment that all of God’s abundance is ours. God’s Son cannot be harmed, for he remains eternally as Love created him.
My heart is filled with gratitude that a mighty Companion walks with me Who’s strength is mine and with His help I can walk the world certain of my safety.
Mary: Today as I quiet my mind and listen, I am reminded to choose peace. By choosing peace, I am inviting the Holy Spirit in. As I relax and let go even more, the feeling of peace gets even stronger. With it comes a sense of well being and a confidence that everything is alright. I know everything I need to know when I choose peace. Choosing peace is the same as choosing the Holy Spirit instead of the ego. When I truly choose to join with the Holy Spirit, peace always comes easily because that is Holy Spirit’s gift.
As peace fills my mind, the ego’s worries disappear. I remember that I am being carried. I am reminded that I am in the Mind of God and cannot leave. I am reminded that I am safe in Heaven now and for eternity. I am reminded that time is just an illusion and that letting go of my belief in time happens naturally as I continue to choose peace and leave out the welcome mat for a correction of my perception by the Holy Spirit. Today I will continue my practice of letting peace lead the way.
