A Day of Rest

Mary:  Let me remember that I rest in God today. With this remembering I will feel the gentleness of God’s peace. I will feel the comfort that comes with willingness to let the veil be lifted. I will feel the happiness of gratitude as I give thanks that the truth of Love is true and nothing else is true. Today I let myself remember the Light of Oneness. As I am willing to do this, the false ideas based on separation gently fall away. Let me celebrate the truth today.

Robert:  When I remember that no matter what appears to be happening in my worldly experience, I remain safe in Love, then every moment is a moment of rest. There is no conflict in Love — only perfect safety and perfect peace. Today I would remember that I remain safe in Love. In that remembering this will be a day of rest, no matter what I seem to be doing in the world. I rest in God today.

Safe in the Arms of Love

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Remember that you are always held safely in the comforting Arms of Love. You need care for nothing. You need only welcome the Love that is given you and let Love guide your ways. Love is not limited. When you let Love lead the way, all your needs are met.

Rest in Love. See with the eyes of Love. Extend the Love you are given always and you will know the Love you have and are. The form your extension of Love takes will be clear in each moment. Let your only focus be on accepting and extending Love. With that focus, you will know you are safe always.

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Remembering that you know nothing allows you to be carried. Choose peace and allow inspiration to come to you. Let your mind relax deeply and what you need to know will very gently show up.

Let Peace Return to Your Weary Mind

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Take time to be still. Take time and let your mind be stilled of all worldly thoughts. This is a powerful gift to yourself, for in receiving this gift you allow the veil to be lifted to the real world, the world of Christ vision.

You can tell your level of willingness by the amount of peace you feel. Consistently allow the Christ Mind to do Its healing work to deepen your level of peace. The Light within your mind will do Its healing work as you allow it. All it needs is your consistent willingness, your willingness to take all the thoughts that come up and hand them over instead of making them real by judging that they are real. Now is the time to let the veil be lifted. Now is the time to step back from the world of separation and remember you are Home with your Father.

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Hurry is an ego attitude. It is a statement that time is real and there is not enough of it. It is a reflection of the belief in lack, which is an effect of believing that you are separate from the Source of limitless abundance. When you remember Who you are, the thought of hurry is inconceivable. It can be helpful to remind yourself when you observe a sense of hurry, “I have forgotten Who I am. I offer this thought to the Source of all abundance. I am willing to accept my Self as I was created. I have everything I need when I need it.”

Give yourself time to rest in that thought. As you allow yourself to fully accept it, you will experience the peace of God. It is always some form of lack (separation) that disturbs your peace. When you allow yourself to accept all that you have been given, peace returns to your weary mind.

Release the Fantasy and Know Your Worthiness

Holy Spirit to Robert: You walk the world imagining you are alone. You may be surrounded by people but you do not experience your unity with them. You feel vulnerable and anxious about what will happen and even how you will “survive.” All this is the effect of a fantasy that you are separate from God. It is not true and can never be true.

Beneath that surface experience of vulnerability and loneliness, there is a recognition in your mind that you are never alone and cannot be alone. This part of your mind is your true Self, the Self that remembers What you are. This Self sees only its Self everywhere. Loneliness is inconceivable to this Self, for It experiences the joy of eternal receiving and extending Love. This is your natural state.

This is why forgiveness is essential for forgiveness is the means to release the fantasy that teaches you you are what you are not. Release the fantasy, dear Child of God. It is not worthy of you and only brings you meaningless pain and sorrow. Release the fantasy and open your mind to the grandeur of your unity in Love.

Bring all those thoughts of isolation and weakness, of fear and guilt, to the part of your mind that remembers what is true and real. While you identify with the fantasy you cannot find your way out. But by the grace of God, there remains in your mind the memory of truth that will set you free. Release the fantasy and accept the joy of God.

Holy Spirit to Mary: God is very quiet. Let God’s quietness enter your mind and receive the gifts of peace and eternal Love and joy. Step back and receive your inheritance now. It is there waiting for you. Your willingness to receive is all that is required. Let that time be now.

Holy Spirit to Jay:  In your daily encounters of other people practicing Love and forgiveness, be with the people. When you look at them, don ‘t just see them, connect. Make eye contact. Connect with there spirit. Really connect and you both will know that you have made contact and it will lead to a warmth and lovingness beyond measure. This is a part of your daily practice of acceptance of other people despite the differences that you may perceive.

Holy Spirit to Sharyn:  Today I find myself sitting on a bench with Jesus in front of a garden. Jesus and I are discussing worthiness and Self worth. Jesus says:

In the world you judge self worth and your own worthiness on things — little pieces of paper, metal discs, houses, boats, cars, etc. None of them have anything at all to do with worthiness. Your Self worth is determined by God. Whenever you think a thought of lack or getting or how am I going to get this or get that, or pay this off, or bills or anything like that you are shutting out God’s Love and worthiness. God is pure Love and so are you.

When those thoughts of lack or scarcity come to you, immediately switch your mind to thoughts of accepting God’s gift of worthiness and Self love. Feel every cell of your being filled with Love. Feel your mind being filled with Love and Light. Picture yourself walking with assurance and strength and fulfillment and the bright Light that you are.

When you think of God, you may think of strength, courage, great Love, filled with Light, caring, kind, gentle, accepting, peaceful, all knowing and all that is. You my child are all of those things too. It is in accepting His gift of all those things and really concentrating on it filling your every cell that there will be no room left for lack, scarcity or any unloving thought. Let’s be one with all our brothers and sisters and God today and every day. Picture God holding His Arms outstretched, welcoming you Home and hugging you and wrapping His Arms around the Love that you are.

Rest in the Holy Instant

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Go to the holy instant. Go to the place in your mind where there is quiet. Go to that place beyond time where you are always at Home. Be willing to let the world go and go to that holy place in your mind and let your mind quiet. Give your busy mind a rest. Ask that it be filled with the Light of truth. Ask with full willingness and you will receive.

You can tell your level of willingness by the level of peace you feel in your heart and mind. Let peace fill every corner of your mind. Let yourself soak in God’s loving peace. See how safe you are in this holy place in your mind. See that nothing can threaten or change its reality. Recognize that this is your real Home, your eternal place of residence. Recognize that the whole world is here with you in its essence, its Source. All Love is here with you in this holy place — this holy instant of returning to the truth. Let your mind frequently rest today in this sacred place that lies eternally in your mind.

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Forgiveness is receiving each moment without overlaying past experience upon it. This is why it can be described as an experience of rebirth. Rebirth symbolizes having no past. Freedom from the past means you are open to receive the meaning of the present moment. The only meaning in every present moment is Love. As you welcome the moment for what it is, you welcome Love. Awakening is the effect of releasing all held thoughts about the past.

As in A Course in Miracles says, The fact is that the past is not here. When you let the past go, you open to the ever present Love of the moment. You know you are trying to bring the past to the present when you are not in peace, when you are not supremely happy. Let this be a signal to you to give your thoughts over to the Holy Spirit in your mind. Release them to Him. In that release you welcome the Light of Love that is now.

Holy Spirit to Sharyn: Rest in the peace and Love of God today. Allow yourself to be carried. All is perfect.

Holy Spirit to Jay:  Continue to forgive instead of being judgmental. Accept everyone with Love. As you are willing, this is your future wherever you go. Tell each person silently, “You are Christ, pure and innocent. All is forgiven and released.”

Leave the Future in God’s Hands

Robert:  In the last few days I’ve been very aware that I’m clueless about why we were guided to move to Florida. I have no idea what our service will look like in the future in terms of form. I’m confident that in this moment I’m in the right place. Any lack of confidence comes from thinking that I need to know what’s next. I only think I need to know what’s next because I think my security comes from having a plan of my own.

I am reminded again and again that there is a Plan. Just because I cannot conceive of it in form, does not mean that there is not an exquisite Plan prepared for me with love and caring to the minutest detail that not only provides for me in abundance, but provides for all far beyond anything of which I can conceive. This plan is rooted in Love, supplied by Love, and its sole purpose is to extend Love. There is nothing else I need to know.

When I feel uncertain and anxious about the future, my only job is to offer that thought and that feeling to the Holy Spirit and open my mind and heart to His gentle correction. He is there for me always. His protection is sure. Today I will practice accepting Holy Spirit’s sure protection.

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Today is a day of practicing staying in the present moment and letting the Holy Spirit guide in the present moment. This means letting yourself be carried. This means listening in the now moment, following in the now moment. This means letting your mind quiet frequently throughout the day, pausing to receive in the present moment Holy Spirit’s gift for that moment.

Today is a day of practicing letting go of the idea of a future or a past. You do this by listening to the guidance of eternal Love right now. Today is a day of stepping back and listening, and as you receive the peace of God, you let that flow through every action of your day.

Holy Spirit to Dorie: You need only walk in the Light of My Love. Reach out for My Hand. Walk with Me and all your needs will disappear. Desire only Me.

Holy Spirit to Annie:  Spirit is gloriously present in every mind and in every heart. In the mind he has placed his unending peace, in the heart His holy Love. No one is lacking His holy Presence in their Self for They are one and the same.

Annie:  Today I want to be more aware than I was yesterday of this sacred truth. Every one of us is filled with Spirit’s peace and Love, for it is the very essence of our being. I want to remember this today for myself and for all beings.

Accept the Light of Love

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Right now, let your mind be filled with Light. Allow this Light to heal your mind of every fear thought that comes up to be healed. Relax into it. Your job is to allow the healing to occur. You can tell the level of your willingness by the level of peace you feel. Let peace in. You can relax now. Everything is alright. You are safe in God. Let yourself rest in this remembering.

As you go through your day, if you notice a disturbance of any kind, return to this remembering and let the Light of Love fill your mind and heal it of all the fearful thoughts that show up for healing. Continue this all through the day and you will have a happy day.

Holy Spirit to Robert:  I walk with you in every moment. In every moment I offer you the peace of God. In every moment I offer you the Vision of Christ. In every moment I offer you the Hand of Christ to gently guide and support you on your journey of awakening to the Love you are. All this I offer you, but you must accept it.

Be mindful of your thoughts today. Whenever you experience disturbance of any kind, you are not accepting the gifts I offer. The only gift I ask of you is that you offer Me all your fearful and guilty thoughts. I take them gladly. I know what to do with them and I return to you the gift of God’s peace. In every moment I offer this gift exchange. What you give me I know is really nothing, though it seems to be important to you. The gift I return is everything you really want. Let this day be a day of giving and receiving.
