Our Best Friend

You long for your Father and your Self so deeply, that nothing can ever satisfy you but Their return to your awareness. The Holy Spirit holds this link, this memory, for you until your mind is made ready, then He returns it to your awareness. On that day you will rejoice, and Heaven and all Creation will join you in celebrating the return of God’s Holy Son. (From the Christ Mind, p. 168)

The Holy Spirit is the link that returns us to the awareness of our one Self, to the awareness that we never left Heaven. Today we have another opportunity to pay attention to the Holy Spirit and the lessons He brings us. Every minute of every day is another opportunity to let our minds be purified of the false ideas we have been holding on to. We have believed in illusions of separation, and now we are learning that the purpose of our life is to let this belief be undone by our inner Teacher, the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is gentle and leads us along the way to truth as our willingness gradually grows. The Holy Spirit knows the level of fear of awakening that we unconsciously hold and never tries to rush us. He knows we are in Heaven now and are eternally safe in the Mind of God. That is why the Holy Spirit has infinite patience. He always sees us as totally innocent.

As our readiness gradually grows, He gently guides us to recognize the valueless for what it is. What no longer has value to us we easily let go. The Holy Spirit never sees us as guilty, no matter how long it takes for us to let go of valuing illusions. The Holy Spirit is truly our best Friend.
