How to Have a Year of Joy

This is a year of joy, in which your listening will increase and peace will grow with its increase. ²The power of holiness and the weakness of attack are both being brought into your awareness. …whenever you listened to His interpretation the results have brought you joy. ⁶Would you prefer the results of your interpretation, considering honestly what they have been? ⁷God wills you better. ⁸Could you not look with greater charity on whom God loves with perfect Love?

⁵Today, let us resolve together to accept the joyful tidings that disaster is not real and that reality is not disaster. ⁶Reality is safe and sure, and wholly kind to everyone and everything. ⁷There is no greater love than to accept this and be glad. ⁸For love asks only that you be happy, and will give you everything that makes for happiness.

You have never given any problem to the Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. ²You have never tried to solve anything yourself and been successful. …⁷This year invest in truth, and let it work in peace. ⁸Have faith in Him Who has faith in you. (A Course in Miracles, T-16.II.7:1-2,5-8;8:5–8;9:1-2,7-8. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

The key to joy is to listen to our true Self, the Holy Spirit, in all aspects of our lives. He will show us the true meaning behind all appearances. Love is the only true meaning and Its aspects are peace and happiness. Our true Self is our Reality.

Listening to the Source of truth in our mind requires that we pause to disengage from our involvement in our perceptions of the world. We disengage as we welcome the peace of God within us. As we let peace come into our minds, the Voice of our true Self comes through more clearly; the ego’s interpretations fade and we let Christ’s vision show us the presence of Love everywhere. This is how we will make this a year of joy.
