Letting Holy Spirit Decide All Things

Decide that God is right and you are wrong about yourself. He created you out of Himself, but still within Him. He knows what you are. Remember that there is no second to Him. There cannot, therefore, be anyone without His Holiness, nor anyone unworthy of His perfect Love. Fail not in your function of loving in a loveless place made out of darkness and deceit, for thus are darkness and deceit undone.

…Your function here is only to decide against deciding what you want, in recognition that you do not know. How, then, can you decide what you should do? Leave all decisions to the One Who speaks for God, and for your function as He knows it. So will He teach you to remove the awful burden you have laid upon yourself by loving not the Son of God, and trying to teach him guilt instead of love. (A Course in Miracles T-14.IV.4:5-10;5:2-5)

Judgment is a barrier that blinds us to the Love we are. Having denied What we are, all our decisions are based on the mistaken belief that we have succeeded in separating from Love. Decisions based on error only perpetuate the error. If we want to return to the awareness of the Love we are, we must decide to let the Holy Spirit decide all things on our behalf. Relinquishment of the role of judge to the Holy Spirit relieves us of a heavy burden.

From our limited perspective we cannot know what will bring Love’s blessing to everyone, but the Holy Spirit does. The practice of letting Holy Spirit decide all things on our behalf frees us from guilt and teaches us to recognize the Love that is ever present. It frees us from the darkness of judgment and returns us to the joy of Heaven. There can be no greater practice than this, for there is nothing outside of Heaven. Today we practice welcoming the gift of Heaven by letting the Holy Spirit decide all things on our behalf.
