Accepting Truth from Holy Spirit

All idols of this world were made to keep the truth within from being known to you, and to maintain allegiance to the dream that you must find what is outside yourself to be complete and happy. It is vain to worship idols in the hope of peace. God dwells within, and your completion lies in Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek outside yourself.

Let Him remind you of His Love for you, and do not seek to drown His Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not outside your Father for your hope. (A Course in Miracles, T-29.VII.6:1-6;10:5-6. See also ACIM Text Q & A.)

Today our focus is on following the inspiration of the Holy Spirit within our minds. The Holy Spirit is always there for us. Our job is to leave a clean and open space where He is welcomed. We do this by stepping back from the ego’s chatter and asking for Holy Spirit’s perspective on what appears to be going on in the world of separate bodies.

Our inner Teacher is always calling us to return to the truth of our Identity in God’s Love. As we increase our receptivity and willingness to listen, we find that inspiration is always there, right when we need it. The key is to step back from the world and listen.

When we remember that we do not know what anything means on our own, our willingness to listen grows. The Course tells us, “In quietness is every problem quietly resolved.” As we consistently step back and let our minds quiet, we find peace… we find certainty… and clarity… instead of doubt and conflict. The Holy Spirit is ever present. Our practice for today is to consistently receive and follow Holy Spirit’s inspiration.
