In My Defenselessness My Safety Lies

Through practicing applying the Course in my life, my days are increasingly more peaceful and happy. Yet there is a part of my mind that still believes I am disconnected from the Source of everything I need and am.

It is this part that gets wrapped up in making plans for my protection and well being. These plans are meaningless because the Truth in me is perfectly safe and whole. When I get caught up in making plans, my peace is disrupted. I am more prone to defensiveness.

I am grateful that I am becoming less tolerant of this state of mind. When I recognize I am in this place, I ask for help from the Connection within that remembers the Truth about me and All That is. I ask for help to see the Truth, to recognize the false idea for what it is, and let Truth’s blessing clear my mind. This is another day of practice.

Today is a day of letting myself be carried. This is true defenselessness. Today is a day of placing trust in inner Guidance instead of ego defenses. Today is a day of practice, of stepping back and listening to the quiet inner Voice and following as I am guided. And for this practice I give thanks.
