Accept Love’s Presence

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Accept the gift of remembering oneness. Let Me bring the truth to you. You deserve to remember the truth. It brings you the experience of inner peace and happiness. It gives you everything that you really want. It brings you the awareness of Love’s Presence. Love’s Presence is everywhere and in everything. I will show you the truth beyond illusions, beyond images/form, as you are willing to let your mind quiet and receive the truth of Love’s oneness. Let this be your practice for today.

Holy Spirit to Robert:
Remember I am always with you. You are never alone. Awareness of My presence comes with peace. The more vigilant you are for peace, the more you will feel the certainty and support that I offer you. Today, practice vigilance for peace. Be in peace in all your doing and you will know that we are together. And your doing will bring Love’s blessing with it. It will be a blessed day indeed.

Aligning with Peace

Mary:
When I feel weak or vulnerable, I am denying that I reside within the Mind of God. When I feel that I am not connected with God, it is important for me to recognize that this experience comes from a decision I have made. If my experience of God seems distant, it is because of a barrier that I am placing there, and not something that God wills for me. This recognition is important because it places responsibility back where it belongs—on my decision.

My decision to allow the barriers to the awareness of Love’s Presence to be lifted depends on me. I take the first step toward letting those barriers to be lifted by being willing to choose peace instead of conflict; by being willing to let go of a focus on differences and accept the oneness that is eternally true.

Letting go of what I think I have learned in this world opens the door to receiving the thought reversal that the Holy Spirit brings to me. God has given me and all my brothers all of Himself. This means there is no division and we still remain one with our Father. Letting this truth return to my mind is my practice for today. God is but Love and therefore so is everyone.

Robert:
In every moment I have a choice for how I will see the world. When I align with the ego thought system of separation, I see conflict, loss, lack, guilt and fear. When I align with the Holy Spirit in my mind, I see the Love of God beyond all images. In that Love I am filled with gratitude, for in that Love I feel the wholeness that is God’s gift. What is whole cannot be divided or separate, and so it is invulnerable. Peace is complete because threat is impossible.

Today my practice is to align with peace in each moment. In peace I welcome inspiration from Holy Spirit, the Thought of wholeness. With that Thought comes gratitude for Love’s completion. I will let peace guide my way today.

What Is Real Right Now?

Robert:
My prayer to Holy Spirit today: Let me not use the images of the world to justify a judgment. Help me to strengthen my inner vision to see past the images and welcome the Light of Love. I place my ideas about what anything means in Your loving Hands. With that release, I welcome Your vision in place of my opinions. Teach me, dear Friend, for I would learn the truth about my Self; I would learn the truth about everyone.

Holy Spirit to Mary:
What is Real right now? This is the question to ask yourself all through the day. You, along with everyone, are still as God created you. God’s Love is Real right now in this holy instant and this holy instant is all there is.

When you doubt, when you feel unsafe or lost, when you feel you have lost your peace, reinforce the habit of asking yourself, “What is Real now?” and let your true Self answer. Let our true Self remind you of your innocence, your holiness, and that you are still safe in the one mind of God. Enjoy the blessings that this practice brings all through the day.

Trust in the Truth

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Today practice placing your trust in the truth. The truth is that you are still pure Love. The truth is that everyone in this dream of separate bodies is still pure Love. The truth is nothing has happened to change the pure Love that God’s Son is.

Place your trust in the truth today. Let yourself remember that you and everyone “else” in this dream are safe and that dreams of conflict and loss can never be true. Let yourself open to and rest in the truth today. Here you find peace. Here you find the eternal gifts given to you by God.

Robert:
My job today is to see the Light of Love in everyone. This Light of Love cannot be seen through the body’s eyes. In fact, relying on the body’s eyes blocks the inner vision that shows me the Light of Love.

Today my practice is to give my attention to this inner vision that shows me the truth. As this vision supersedes what the body’s eyes show me, I see the truth in my brother. I see him as the Son of God as he was created, without the overlay of ego projections. It is this I would practice seeing today.

How to Have a Happy Day

Robert:
In our reading in A Course Miracles today, this is what stood out to me in Workbook Lesson 294: “Let me, then, use this dream to help Your plan that we awaken from all dreams we made.” (W-pII.294.2:3)

This sums up what everything I experience in the world is for. Everything in the world is meaningful only to the extent that it serves the awakening of God’s Son from the dream of separation. No matter what detours we may follow, this prayer is in the heart of everyone, because we all want to be happy. True happiness is found only in awakening to the oneness of Love.

Today I dedicate to using every interaction, every situation, every experience to serve God’s plan of awakening. This is how I will have a happy day.

Mary:
The way I serve God’s plan is to accept God’s peace all through the day. On my own, I do not know what anything is for. I need to be as a little child and be open to Holy Spirit’s guidance all through the day. This takes vigilance. Asking myself frequently, “What do I want to come from this?” and making the choice to follow and not lead, helps me be open to God’s plan. Following only God’s plan is all I want today.

Resurrection

Holy Spirit to Robert:
Rest in Me… Let yourself relax into the certainty of My changeless Love… I am What you are… Let the thoughts of the world pass by… Let Me show you the brilliance of your Being… Let Me show you that everyone is included in this brilliance… No one is left out… This is the vision of your Self… This Self does not judge but only joins with the Love that is the truth in all…

The body’s eyes will still show you images of the world, but the vision of your Self looks past them to the Light of Christ… This is your resurrection… This is the resurrection of the world… This vision is how you bless the world and the world blesses you…

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Let this day be a day to celebrate the truth about you and everyone in this world of separation. Celebrating the resurrection of God’s one Son is the true meaning of Easter. Let Me bring you past time to the truth that God’s one Son has been resurrected from the dead.

In truth, time is over and only eternity is true now. Let Me bring you to the truth that you are safe in God’s eternal Mind, right now. To allow this remembering, be as a little child and let yourself be brought to the awareness of your wholeness in God. This is how to celebrate Easter.

Everyone Belongs to God

Mary:
We all have one Source. This one Source is God. And because nothing can leave its Source, we remain one with our Source. We still belong to God. Love’s inherent oneness is still our Home. It is still Where we reside in truth.

I find it very helpful to think that everyone comes from God and still belongs to God. It helps me see past the illusions of separation and see that everyone is still united with their Father, whether it is recognized or not. This remembering brings a sense of reverence and helps me give everyone their full due because they still are one with God, our Father.

As I practice seeing everyone as still one with our Source, it helps me and every brother along with me. This is what brings me happiness. The Course reminds me that God gives only happiness. So, if I want to be happy today, I will open my mind to allow in the remembrance of the truth that everyone belongs to God. And for this I give thanks.

Robert:
This is my prayer today:
Father I have made substitutes for Your gifts to me. I recognize now that these substitutes are empty and bring no comfort, but rather a sense of loss because they make me unaware of Your gifts. I am willing to set these substitutes aside today. Help me see past them to the truth of your Love for me and all my brothers. In that vision I will recognize the Self I share with all in You. In this recognition I will know the comfort of Your peace, the joy of Your Love. Thank You.
