Joining with God’s Will

Holy Spirit to Robert:  The ego loves rules. Rules are the basis of judgment. And judgment is the ego’s principal tool for maintaining separation as seeming to be real. This is why it is essential to remember that you are under no laws but God’s. Since God is Love, God’s law is the law of Love. Because Love is one, God’s law is the law of inclusion. Guided by Love, which is to say guided by God’s law, you will always be truly helpful. Love always extends Love and nothing else. Love cannot condemn because to condemn is to separate.

When you want to be right, you have set up your own rules and separated yourself from Love so that happiness is impossible. Now is the time for you to be diligent in your practice of turning all your decisions over to Me instead of using your old, tattered rules. I will always decide with Love, which means I will always decide for oneness. The way to return to Love is to forgive your rules and truly accept that you are under no laws but God’s. In this acceptance you remember that God’s Will is your will and God’s Will for you is perfect happiness. Forgive and be happy.

Holy Spirit to Mary:  You truly want to do God’s Will. To do this, the most helpful thing you can do throughout the day is to frequently step back, take a deep breath and relax. Soften from your busy doing. Soften and open your mind to the Light that is there in your mind waiting for your welcome. Welcome the Light of your true Self to come in stronger. And with that feeling of welcome, allow the gift of peace to grow until you feel it strongly. Just be there, receiving peace. Then let it lead the way into your next period of time. Let it lead the way.

Watch the thoughts that come up with gentleness and patience. Watch with Holy Spirit. There is no hurry. Watch with patience. Be like the little child holding his father’s hand. Your Father will show you the way that is most helpful for you at this time. Let yourself be led.

Holy Spirit to Herbie:  When we bring love to everything including the ego, the ego shows its true self, which is not love. The ego wants you to recognize separation as its core and to have you avoid surrendering to God’s love.
 
Ego does not want you to be peaceful because it only recognizes separation. But when we begin to surrender, then ego feels separated from you again and will attempt to strike fear and guilt into you. This is when you must give it all over to God and let Holy Spirit speak through you. Then ego realizes it no longer controls anything and must yield to your true Self, Pure Peaceful Love.
 
Forgive all that occurred, heal it with Jesus by your side and walk with the true knowing that you are being shown the path. When you walk that path trust that it is right for you and see everything as loving and God’s will.

Seeing the Face of Christ

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Do not confuse seeing the face of Christ with seeing an image of Jesus. As it says in the Clarification of Terms, Jesus is the Christ along with each and every one of us. If we associate Christ with one individual, you have lost the meaning of Christ. Seeing the face of Christ is seeing with forgiving perception. You see the face of Christ by lifting the veil of perception and seeing with Love instead of judgment.

This is what you must learn to do in every moment. You cannot teach yourself this. You cannot make yourself see the face of Christ. You can only offer your judgments to the Holy Spirit for His gentle and loving correction. With that correction your heart will be opened and the veil of perception lifted so that the unity of Love that you share with all is revealed to you.

Seeing the face of Christ is seeing with Love and non-judgment. It is the recognition that you and your brother share one Self. In that recognition, the peace and joy of Heaven flow through your mind and heart and embraces all. Today offer all judgments to Me and let Me help you lift the veil to reveal to you the face of Christ everywhere.

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Trust in God’s Plan. In the present moment, God’s Plan is being revealed to you. Stay in the present moment. Focus on choosing peace, receiving peace, extending peace in each present moment today. The rest will take care of itself. Your are safe. Everyone is safe. You are innocent. Everyone is innocent. You are loved. Everyone is Loved. You are Home. Everyone is Home.

Holy Spirit to Sharyn: Everything is in My Hands. Put everything you have in My Hands, for I am the Caretaker. I know what is best for all. I know what is for the highest good of all. And I see only the Love in all situations. Therefore, put all concerns, situations, apprehensions, everything in My Hands. All is well and all is taken care of perfectly.

Open Your Heart

Holy Spirit to Dorie:  Open your heart without defense. Accept and extend my Love. You are as I created you, not as you have created your image of yourself in your mind. You need only accept this to have peace and happiness.

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Joy fills an open heart. Defenses block the joy. You cannot experience joy while you defend an image of yourself. But open your heart to the Love that is everywhere and your joy will overflow. Lay down your judgments upon my altar today. I will wash them clean of false ideas and return to you the perfect joy that is your natural state. Live in joy today. 

Holy Spirit to Mary:  Many times during your day today, practice stepping back from what you are doing and stepping back from your focus on the world. Sit back, close your eyes and take a deep breath. Rest awhile with me. Together we will look at all the ego thoughts that are currently rolling through your mind. And as you hand them over, I will show you their meaninglessness. I will fill your mind with the peace and Love that really matters. Together, we will extent this peace and Love to every brother. You will feel the infinite patience as we join together to see the truth. You will feel the happiness of Heaven that is your inheritance.

Let us do this often today. It is worth taking the time to join with Me.

See Through the Holy Spirit’s Eyes

Holy Spirit to Mary:  No matter what appears to be happening within the dream, it is always helpful to remember that in truth, you are safe. Instead of believing in what appears to be outside you, focus instead on inviting your inner Teacher, your inner Comforter, into your mind. Seek only the Light and the Light will enlighten the darkness, the fearful concepts that you are still holding on to.

Ask often, “Holy Spirit, how may I see this through your eyes? What is truly helpful?” Then be quiet. Be still and allow the Light within to comfort you and do Its healing work. You have forgotten about Reality. Only your true Self can return the awareness of Love’s Presence to your fearful mind. Be still and listen. In quiet is every “problem” quietly resolved.

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Having an opinion will always undermine your peace. An opinion is just another judgment that maintains your sense of separation. It is built upon what you think you have learned from the past. Thus it is an attempt to make the past real. It is not so.

Bring all your opinions to Me and ask for My help to see past the opinion to the Truth. This is the path to peace. This is forgiveness, for I will show you what is real and what is not. What you recognize is unreal you freely release, for there is no longer any perceived value in it. This is your healing journey. This is the road to lasting happiness. This is the release from fear and the return to Love.

Holy Spirit to Dorie:  Forgiveness extended from the heart is Love extended.

Give Love a Chance

Holy Spirit to Mary:  As frequently as you can during the day, let your mind return to the truth that you are Love and nothing else. Let your mind accept the Love that is yours. And true acceptance contains giving the Love that is yours and everyone’s.

Receiving and giving Love is your true function. Give yourself the time today to receive and extend Love. This helps you remember your true Identity, your true function. This brings you happiness and purifies your mind of all the false ideas found in the dream. Give Love a chance today.

Holy Spirit to Annie:  Your reality is intact and has never been diminished. Love has never died in anyone and never will. You have never been anything but Love. All the identities you have picked up along the way are but false pictures you have made of yourself. You have never been anything else but Love. Celebrate this truth today and I mean really celebrate. To celebrate means to let your heart burst with joy. And only the truth of Who you are will enable this for you. Celebrate. Celebrate. Celebrate.

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Given the chance, Love will wash through you with joy and peace. Accept It. It is your birthright. God Himself has deemed you worthy of It. You were created in Love as Love so accepting It is really simply accepting your Self. When you give Love a chance, you are giving your Self a chance. You are letting go of a false identity and accepting What you are.

Embrace the Love

Holy Spirit to Robert: Embrace the Love in all things. This is how you learn to embrace the Love you are. This is your only function in truth. Love’s one purpose is to extend Itself. Because you are Love, your only purpose is to extend Love. Any other function you think you may have is based upon the false idea of what you are.

That is why it is essential that you practice and practice and practice bringing all unloving thoughts, thoughts of fear, of guilt, of sadness, of anger, of lack and loss, to Me. I will help you see that these thoughts have no real foundation and together we will look past the images, the misperceptions, and see the Love That is always there.

You cannot embrace the Love on your own, because thinking you are on your own denies the Love. But together with Me, we embrace the Love of the Universe and experience It as the one Self that is the Son of God. Let’s walk together. Let Me share My vision with you. Together we will walk in joy.

Holy Spirit to Dorie: If you will do nothing more than extend and embrace the Love in all, your fear will fall away. It will be no more. Just these two things — extend… embrace…—  will show you the Love That Is. Your confidence will soar and you will see there is no hatred. There is nothing but Love. There is no danger. There is nothing but peace. All fear hides the abundance I provide for you.

Holy Spirit to Annie:  Love the Love that You are. Love the peace that You are. Love the joyful heart that You are. Love the innocence that You are. Love the Light that You are. Love the Christ that You are. You are all this and perfectly so.

Holy Spirit to Mary: Focus on your willingness to allow in the awareness of the Love You are today. The time is now. You are Love now. You can be aware of the Love you are now with just a little willingness. Let the Light of Truth in and it will light up every dark corner, every fear. You cannot do this alone. Be willing to let your mind still and let the Light in. Love will do the rest.

Start a New Habit

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Let yourself see as I see. I see you and everyone as pure Love. Nothing else. You were created by Love as Love. That can never change. I am always with you, ready, willing and able to help you see as I see.

All that stands between seeing as I see and the way you now see is judgment. Judgment divides you off from what you judge. You must perceive yourself as different from in order to judge another. The truth about you is not separate. It is a false image of yourself that you reinforce when you judge. I will help you see as I see. All you need to do is to be willing to give all your judgments to Me and to open your heart and mind to My gentle, loving, compassionate correction.

I will gently help you see the valuelessness of each judgment. I will help you recognize it as meaningless. With this recognition, you will freely let it go with no sense of sacrifice. It is not difficult to disregard what you recognize as meaningless.

You cannot sort the meaningful from the meaningless on your own, because on your own you don’t know the difference. But I am always with you to do the sorting for you and to help you see the meaningless for what it is. The practice of turning over all your judgments to Me is the way you will walk to the truly meaningful and experience your Self as you have always been. Join with Me and let us walk together to peace.

Holy Spirit through Annie:  I am the ANSWER to your dreams. I call you NOW to awaken. Open the eyes of your mind and your heart and SEE what I am showing you. I am always showing you the TRUTH. Put all your TRUST in this. I will heal your blindness by shining the Light of the truth upon you. My Light will heal you deeply and you will see again. There will be a celebration in Heaven when you open your eyes and see All That You are — the One beloved Child of God.

Holy Spirit through Sharyn: Start today by starting a new habit. Let your new habit be coming to Me for everything. Start out your morning, for instance, by keeping track of how many times you come to Me. Then this afternoon, make sure you come to Me more often than you did in the morning. Then in the evening, make sure you come to Me more often than you did in the afternoon.

Remember to be patient with yourself as a new habit takes time to establish. But since we know there is no time, it need not be. You can automatically start today and it will become a new habit for you. I will help you with this. This is a journey that will bring joy, happiness, Love and freedom to you. We’ll talk soon My Love.
