The Blessing of Following Holy Spirit’s Directives

If you will accept the fact that I am with you, you are denying the world and accepting God. My will is His, and your decision to hear me is the decision to hear His Voice and abide in His Will. As God sent me to you so will I send you to others. And I will go to them with you, so we can teach them peace and union.

If you want to have [peace] of me, you must give it. Healing does not come from anyone else. You must accept guidance from within. The guidance must be what you want, or it will be meaningless to you. That is why healing is a collaborative venture. I can tell you what to do, but you must collaborate by believing that I know what you should do. Only then will your mind choose to follow me.

The decision to unite must be unequivocal, or the mind itself is divided and not whole. …All things are possible through our joint decision…” (A Course in Miracles, T-8.IV.3:8-11;4:4-10;5:6,11. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

Jesus, the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, is always with us because we are united in the oneness of God’s Love. We cannot be separated in truth. Only the ego’s illusions manifested in the world seem to separate us. We can leave these thoughts of separation behind by choosing to accept His Presence in our mind.

By joining with Him, we deny the ego’s denial of Love. We accept the truth of What we are — Love and nothing else. While we try to follow the ego’s directives as well as the Holy Spirit’s, we dwell in uncertainty. But when we fully accept the Holy Spirit—our true Self—wholeheartedly, we become bringers of peace to the world.

The choice to accept Love’s oneness is the choice to give Love and peace to the world. The practice of choosing to follow the Holy Spirit’s directives heals our mind of mistaken beliefs and reminds us of our unity with every brother and God.
