Holy Spirit’s Classroom

Sometimes I am aware of an aspect in my mind that has its gavel raised, ready to pass judgment on whatever crosses its path. It should wear a sign, “Here comes da judge.” When this aspect is noticeable in my mind, it puts me on edge. Sometimes I tolerate its presence for a while, but the split it causes can lead to a headache.

The only resolution for this is to bring it to the Holy Spirit. That means I must be willing to go to peace and accept peace in my mind. The degree to which I am willing to tolerate “da judge” is the degree to which I am unwilling to accept Holy Spirit’s help. Fortunately my tolerance for pain is much less that it used to be. I much more quickly recognize that my mind is disturbed and become willing to do what it takes to return to peace and let Holy Spirit’s Light shine away the false idea that judgment is possible.

Today my practice is once again to be vigilant for peace. Peace is my one goal and the Holy Spirit, my true Self is where it is. I am willing to accept it.

Today, let me remember that I am in Holy Spirit’s school. The purpose of Holy Spirit’s school is to awaken me from the false dream of separation. The Holy Spirit’s purpose is to awaken me to my true Identity as Love.

It helps me learn my lessons if I remember in each moment that I am in a class and my Teacher is right there with me, waiting to use the circumstances of each present moment to help me awaken to the truth. When I remember what everything is for according to the Holy Spirit, my lessons become easier to learn. The barriers that I put up are noticed more easily. I can recognize the false beliefs that show up in my mind more easily.

I can remind myself, “This moment is here for my awakening. Am I willing to receive the correction of my perception from the Holy Spirit? Am I willing to let the veil of separation be lifted right now, wherever I am, whatever I am doing?” When I remember this, of course I say yes. Fortunately, the Holy Spirit waits patiently when I forget, remembering that nothing could ever really happen but Love. The Holy Spirit remembers God IS, and there is nothing else.

So today is devoted to remembering I am in Holy Spirit’s classroom. My job as the student is to pay attention to my inner Teacher. I may wander off several times during the day on my own, but the more I pay attention to why I am here and what this day is for, I more willing I am to come back to Holy Spirit’s classroom and receive the lessons that bring me a greater awareness of the peace, joy and Love of my true Identity.

Thank God we are all in Holy Spirit’s classroom. As soon as we are willing, we see that the lessons are right before us and the answer is plain as day. And for this I give thanks.
