There Is No Place But Home

Robert:
There is no place like Home. This statement from the Wizard of Oz could be more accurately phrased: There is no place but Home. This world, the land of Oz, is a fantasy fabricated in our minds, a dream that could never be real. It does not really exist. Learning this is the equivalent of clicking our heals to escape from the dream. All we need to do is learn what is real and what is not. The good news is that we have eternally present in our minds the Teacher Who will help us recognize what is real. But we must be willing to be taught.

The first step in this is to accept the possibility that our interpretations may be wrong. This is a step toward the willingness that opens our mind to the truth. Today I am willing to accept that my interpretations might be wrong. I am willing to let the curtain be pulled back so that I may recognize illusions for what they are and receive the Holy Spirit’s interpretation that leads me to truth. Today I would remember there is no place but Home.

Mary:
Today we are going to attend a seminar on Internet communications. I ask Holy Spirit to lead me through this day so that I am paying attention to what Holy Spirit wants me to learn. I realize that I am in Holy Spirit’s school, but many times I forget and wander into ego’s dead end streets. So I ask Holy Spirit what would help to keep me connected all through the day.

The answer that arises in my mind is to consistently remember to choose peace all through the day. Choosing peace realigns my mind to accept Holy Spirit’s inner direction. It stimulates moving into a more relaxed state, open to Holy Spirit’s inner promptings. So my willingness to consistently choose peace all through the day is like my lifeline to inner inspiration. Choosing peace consistently through the day helps me remember that I am being carried by Holy Spirit’s plan of awakening.

I am led to awakening from the dream as I am receptive and willing to be taught what is most truly helpful in any moment. As I accept this state of mind, I feel enveloped in deep peace, fully cared for and safe in the Mind of God. I experience a gentleness and can easily recognize the gentle peace that resides in everyone’s mind, whether they are paying attention to it or not.

So today may look like we are going to a conference about the Internet on the outside. But on the inside I am attending Holy Spirit’s conference on enhancing the practice of receiving and extending God’s universal peace. I can’t think of anything more important than this. What an opportunity I have today!
