Letting Go and Letting God Brings Peace

Strength is found in peace, not in conflict. Peace is an attribute of the Self that God created, the Self that joins me with All That Is. Conflict can only seem to occur if I believe I am something other than the one Self that God created. When things seem to be wrong in the world, such as a machine not working, the ego perceives that circumstance as in conflict with its image of what should be. This is just an out picturing of the ego’s idea that it is in conflict with God. Fixing the machine may seem to make the circumstance acceptable but the only meaningful correction is to forgive the seeming conflict with God.

When I am willing, the Holy Spirit shows me the mistaken thought that underlies the appearance of conflict. The Holy Spirit offers me the strength of God to support me in letting go of that mistaken idea. This is forgiveness. This is why the practice of offering all perceptions that interfere with peace to the Holy Spirit is so important. With that, willingness to accept Holy Spirit’s loving correction is what allows me to experience the forgiveness that sets me free to be my Self. This is how I let go and let God.
