I Will There Be Light

Your picture of the world can only mirror what is within. The source of neither light nor darkness can be found without. Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you look upon a world of light. (A Course in Miracles W-pI.73.5:1-4)

Once again I am willing to remember that the world I experience is a reflection of which guide and I choosing in my mind. I am willing to remember that nothing leaves the mind. There is no outside. Ideas leave not their source.

When I am willing to practice allowing the Holy Spirit to lift the veil of the ego thought system, I look upon a world of Light. Today I am willing to practice reinforcing this willingness to join with Holy Spirit in seeing past the ego’s thought system of separate bodies to the Light that is eternally there. This practice brings me peace. This practice brings me happiness. I will there be Light.

This lesson reminds me that, if I want to be happy, I need only accept that I share God’s Will for me — perfect happiness. The ego cannot oppose this will, but if I believe in the ego thought system, I become unaware of my will. Very simply, awareness of my will is restored to me through forgiveness or letting go of the false idea of separation. Separation is simply an idle wish that could never be true. I remain Love as Love created me.

I ask Holy Spirit’s help today to recognize mistaken perceptions of separation and to receive His loving correction. This is how I welcome happiness.
