Returning to Happiness

Father, Your Son is perfect. When I think that I am hurt in any way, it is because I have forgotten who I am, and that I am as You created me. Your Thoughts can only bring me happiness. If ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten what You think, and put my little meaningless ideas in place of where Your Thoughts belong, and where they are. I can be hurt by nothing but my thoughts. The Thoughts I think with You can only bless. The Thoughts I think with You alone are true. (A Course in Miracles, W-pII.281.1.)

The Course reminds us that we are a Thought in the Mind of God. We are the Beingness of Love, Which is what God is. There is only one Beingness that is real, and this is the Beingness of pure happiness, pure joy, pure Love, pure peace. This eternal Beingness is always present in our minds, waiting for our return.

Today our practice is to allow our true Beingness of infinite Love and happiness to return to our minds. Like the prodigal son, we have wandered into dreams of being alone and unhappy. We have wandered into dreams of lack, loss, sickness and death.

Today we would be mindful of thoughts that hurt, that separate. We would be willing to let these thoughts be removed by the Holy Spirit. We are willing to let go of the mistaken idea that we are separate from our Source. Our Source is Love and happiness. We now would return to What is ours eternally. We have thrown It away, but now we are willing for the truth to be restored to our minds. We are willing to return to God’s perfect happiness today.
