Looking Past the World

Above all else I want to see differently. The world I see holds my fearful self-image in place, and guarantees its continuance. While I see the world as I see it now, truth cannot enter my awareness. I would let the door behind this world be opened for me, that I may look past it to the world that reflects the Love of God. (A Course in Miracles W-pI.56.3)

The Holy Spirit is always there in my mind, waiting to show me the truth that is hidden behind the illusions of separate bodies I am seeing. The Holy Spirit patiently waits to show me that only Love is there.

Today is dedicated to letting the Holy Spirit show me the truth behind every separate form. When I am willing to let the door behind this world be opened for me, I will see that perfect security and complete fulfillment are my inheritance. I will feel safe and at peace, remembering that only Love is real.

This is worth the practice. What could be more important than waking up from the dream of separation and recognizing what I am and where I am in Truth? And the good news is that everyone is there, one with God’s Love, along with me.

I have a long established habit of thinking I am on my own. Along with that I think it’s up to me to make things happen. It’s up to me to open the door behind the world to see past it. If it’s going to get done, I’ve got to do it. This is circular thinking because it is this thinking that keeps the door closed.

Two key words in the above quote are “let” and “for.” All I have to do is let the door behind this world be opened for me. My job is simply to get out of the way. Nothing more. My practice today is to step back and step aside to let Holy Spirit open the door to the vision of Christ that sees beyond the world of form.
