You Are in Heaven Now

You keep an ancient memory before your eyes. And he who lives in memories alone is unaware of where he is.

“Forgiveness is the great release from time. It is the key to learning that the past is over. Madness speaks no more. There is no other teacher and no other way. For what has been undone no longer is. And who can stand upon a distant shore, and dream himself across an ocean, to a place and time that have long since gone by? How real a hindrance can this dream be to where he really is? For this is fact, and does not change whatever dreams he has. Yet can he still imagine he is elsewhere, and in another time. In the extreme, he can delude himself that this is true, and pass from mere imagining into belief and into madness, quite convinced that where he would prefer to be, he is. (A Course in Miracles, T-26.V.5:6-7;6:1-10)

Today’s practice is to let ourselves remember What we are and Where we are eternally. The truth is we are still as God created us — we are Love and nothing else. We cannot change Reality. We remain one with Love Who is our Source.

Today we let the past go by allowing the Holy Spirit to reinterpret everything we see and show us only what is true. With His help, we see the face of Christ in every brother and see the eternal in him. Today we forgive the past and let ourselves remember that we are in Heaven now.

Let Love Lead the Way

Today our practice is to let Love lead us all through the day in every way. With this practice, we pause frequently and wait for Love to lead us through each circumstance we encounter throughout the day. Our focus is to step back from doing anything on our own, from bringing our past experience to the present.

We let go of the past and remember that we do not know the meaning of anything on our own. We use today for healing with the simple practice of pausing all through the day to let Love lead. We trust that Love knows the way that is truly helpful for all concerned. And we give thanks for all the blessings we receive as we let Love lead the way.

Accepting Mind Purification

Today our purpose is to accept mind purification from the Holy Spirit all through the day. We watch our thoughts and consistently hand them over to the Holy Spirit. We ask for and receive the Light of truth behind every form, behind every circumstance we encounter today.

This is our only goal. We know that freedom lies within this practice. We rest secure in the knowing that, as we consistently open to the Holy Spirit’s gentle correction, we will receive the inspiration, the peace and the joy that comes with it. And we give thanks that we have all that we need to receive the Holy Spirit’s gift of mind healing today.

Transforming Conflict to Peace

We never have to stay in conflict. We can choose peace. We can ask the Holy Spirit to transform our current perception about everything we experience so that we reflect Love’s peace instead of the ego’s thoughts of conflict. We learn to remember we have a choice — we can choose the Holy Spirit instead of the ego. When we choose the Holy Spirit, we free ourselves from the binding, painful experience that comes with the ego thought system.

As we ask for mind purification, it comes to us in the most perfect way that leads us to calm assurance that all is well and we are safe, no matter what the appearance is in the moment. Today our practice is to be vigilant of all our thoughts,asking: “Is this coming from ego or the Holy Spirit?” We frequently say to ourselves, “Right now I open to the Holy Spirit’s purification of all my thoughts. And I give thanks, confident that I will receive as I have asked.”

Welcoming Honest Thoughts of Love

Sit quietly and close your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world, and let your thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself.” (A Course in Miracles, A Course in Miracles, W-pI.188.6)
