In God We Trust

Whenever we experience struggle, sadness, stress, defensiveness or lack of peace in any way, it is because we believe we are capable of being harmed. We feel weak and vulnerable. We believe that somehow the image we have of ourselves can suffer loss.

Yet if we were created by God in His likeness, loss is impossible. His strength is ours. He shares His changelessness with us, which makes us invulnerable to change. We remain changeless Love as Love created us.

The antidote to a sense of vulnerability is to accept that we remain as God created us. We can trust in His strength because it is also ours in truth. The phrase that appears on all US currency, “In God we trust,” has the power to heal our troubled minds.

Reminding ourselves of this frequently redirects our allegiance from the belief in the false idea of separation to the certainty of our strength in God’s Love. This is our practice today.

Healing Is Accepting the Truth

Father, I ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about myself and my creation, and have brought a dream of fear into my mind. Today, I would not dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of fear. For truth is safe, and only love is sure. (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.278.2)

Today I welcome the truth of God’s Love… Today I open to identifying with the truth instead of the ego’s illusions of separation and differences… Today I am vigilant to join with the Light of Oneness in God’s universal Love… This helps me see my oneness with everyone in Love…

With this practice I let my mind be healed as I am willing to accept the truth.

Letting the Light Dispel the Darkness in Our Minds

Spiritual purification is the uncovering of all fear and guilt; all the dark corners of your mind must be brought to Light that the darkness may be dispelled. All that is not Love must be healed to prepare the way for Love’s return. (From the Christ Mind, p. 163)

Every moment of every day presents an opportunity for us to open our minds to Love. With vigilance, we can recognize when we are not being Love’s expression, when we are not in peace and joy. When we recognize that our mind is disturbed, we have the opportunity to bring that sense of discomfort to the Holy Spirit to receive His vision and His gentle correction of the thought that caused us to believe that there was anything to fear nor any cause for guilt. Each time we accept this correction we come closer to welcoming Love’s return. We let Love’s Light shine away the dark thoughts of fear.

Today is a day filled with opportunities for healing. Today we can welcome Love’s return.

We Are Love’s Messenger

Today we accept the fact that our function is to be Love’s messenger. We let ourselves remember that we are Love, and Love extends only Love because that is Its only function. We are happiest when we are following our true life purpose — forgiving and being Love’s messenger.

As we walk through today, we let the Love of our true Self flow through and we are uplifted through the experience of extending Love. It will be a happy day indeed.

The Power of Love

Walk softly, and carry a big remembrance of Love. Remembrance of Love will carry you through every situation, no matter how difficult it may appear in the moment. Let Love be all that matters. This remembrance brings high dividends and great happiness. This remembrance open us to the power of Love, which is beyond measure. As we practice it hourly, we know that this is true.

Accepting Holy Spirit’s Way

You need not worry about what you should do or what you should say. The Holy Spirit will guide you in everything, in all situations, at all times. He alone knows the response that is in your highest interest, and equally beneficial to all who will be affected in any way by your decision. Referring decisions to Him, will always result in the best outcome for all concerned. It may not appear so at time, but as you learn that you do not know enough to judge, and if you will trust, the end result is certain. (From the Christ Mind, p. 119)

Our practice for today is to strengthen our willingness and to step back and follow with all the circumstances that show up in our life. This takes vigilance and a willingness to let go of bringing the past to the present. We may think we know, but we do not. Only the Spirit of Love That resides in our mind knows how to best extend the Love — our only function. As we practice this and step back all through the day, we are assured of the peace and joy that are Holy Spirit’s gifts throughout the day. And we are grateful for the wonderful opportunity we have today.

Let Happiness Bubble Up

Behind every image I have made, the truth remains unchanged. Behind every veil I have drawn across the face of love, its light remains undimmed. Beyond all my insane wishes is my will, united with the Will of my Father. God is still everywhere and in everything forever. And we who are part of Him will yet look past all appearances, and recognize the truth beyond them all. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.56.4:2-6)

In truth we still are God’s Love, and inherent in God’s Love is His peace and joy. We are learning to return to our inherent eternal nature. We are willing to see past every form to the truth today. As we practice today, we notice the happiness that naturally bubbles up with remembering the truth. And we give thanks.
