From Uncertainty to Certainty

Uncertainty is a game we play that keeps us preoccupied with planning for the future and to protect our fragile image of what we believe we are. Our self-image in the world is so fragile that the way someone looks at us can seem to damage that image. The body in which this self-image is rooted must be constantly cared for a protected. It seems to be capable of doing things for which we feel guilty. Occasionally the body seems to do things that make us happy, but this happiness never lasts.

This constant sense of uncertainty and fragility is the result of believing in an image that is not what we are. Because of our strong investment in this belief, we need help from outside this belief system to find our way out of the flimsy “paper bag” that seems to contain us. Of ourselves alone, we could not fight our way out of this paper bag. But with the help of the Holy Spirit, we can learn that there is no paper bag.

We remain as God created us. We remain Love, at one with the Source of Love, where we live and move and have our being. We move through the Love of Heaven by joining in Love’s eternal extension.

Today is another happy day of practice in letting the Holy Spirit be my interpreter in every moment. This is how I will learn that there is no limit on me, God’s extension of Love. There is no paper bag.

Today it is my opportunity to remember that differences do not matter. The only thing that does matter is my willingness to see past the illusion of differences to the one pure Light of Love That is really there. As I let my mind return to the truth of Love’s pure Oneness, I am healed. And as I allow my mind to be healed, I become an instrument of healing, because all minds are joined. In truth we are all the same Light. There is no distance between us. We are the same Light. There are no differences.
