A Willingness Check In

Mary:
Am I willing to remember the truth today? Am I willing to remember the truth of What I am and Where I am eternally? This is my willingness check-in as I begin my day. Am I truly willing to step back and receive God’s peace? Or do I choose instead the ego thought system that makes separate bodies appear to be real? I have to honestly look at my willingness right now because I find that the temptation to join with believing in a world of separation seems very strong.

The Course tells me that I need just a little willingness. That is all the Holy Spirit needs. It is the Holy Spirit Who does the rest. Right now I just focus on relaxing and letting go of all I think I know. This helps me to open my mind to receive God’s gift of peace which helps to wash away all the doubts in my mind. I soften more and relax a little more, letting go just a little more.

I know that beyond this world is a world I want. I know that the real world the Holy Spirt brings brings me peace and happiness. The presence of my inner Comforter grows stronger as my focus continues to stay on accepting Holy Spirit’s help. I look at my barriers to accepting Love’s Presence with Holy Spirit. We rest a while together.

My fears about the future come up and I willingly hand them over to the Holy Spirit. I observe with Holy Spirit as they are gently washed away. I see the futility of holding on to these thoughts. I see that I no longer need them. The feeling of rest and a peace beyond this world grows stronger. I gradually allow the awareness of Love’s Presence to grow stronger.

I am reminded how important it is to let the Holy Spirit do Its job. My job is to have a little willingness. I focus on letting the veil of separation be lifted. I am now aware that in truth, the Light of Christ is all there is to see. The feeling of peace replaces everything that I thought before. I am on the bridge of return to the truth because I am willing to be there. I see that all is safe because nothing has happened to change God’s one Son.

Accepting God’s peace is my one goal. Through accepting peace, the truth of What I am and Where I am always is revealed and everyone that I have perceived in the dream is there with me. Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God.

I find that it is very helpful to start the day with a willingness check in.

Robert: 
Today I dedicate once again to letting the Holy Spirit be my Guide in all my thoughts, decisions and actions. It is this practice that will carry me forward on my journey of awakening.
