One Step at a Time

Holy Spirit to Mary:
Take one step at a time, remembering in each moment to step back and choose peace… Be like a little child, remembering that you do not know what anything means… Step back and receive peace and understanding from the Holy Spirit… Continue this throughout the day…

Robert:
When it seems like there is a lot of things to do, things to remember, I find it helpful to write them down so that I can let them go. While the ‘to do’ thoughts are racing through my mind, my attention is on the ‘future’ rather than now. Writing these things down so that I can let them go makes the next step easier — taking time to go to peace and opening to Holy Spirit’s lead. Then I let Holy Spirit set the priorities of what to focus on in the now moment. I get myself into trouble when I try to decide on my own what I should be doing.

Today seems to be one of those days where I need to redouble my attention to my level of peace and stepping back to follow. This is how I let Holy Spirit be my time manager. He always does a better job than I do. On my own, my doing becomes simply a reinforcement of the belief that I am alone and separate. With His lead, all my doing is in service to awakening. Today I would follow and serve.
