Step Back

Robert:
I place all my thoughts, opinions and judgments on Holy Spirit’s altar. They represent a false self I have believed I am. I do not know what anything means or what anything is for. Trying to interpret anything on my own simply interferes with my happiness. Trying to interpret or understand anything with the limited information allowed by the false self simply leads to frustration, disappointment and dejection.

But when I turn all this over to the Holy Spirit and wait in peace for His interpretation to replace my feeble attempts to judge, I find relief, peace and quiet joy. The joy comes because, with the Holy Spirit, I see the Light of the world shine through every appearance. Appearances become insignificant and the Light is all I want to see. My brother becomes a shining star that shows me the Light of the one Self we share. It brings a happy reunion that unites me with my brother and my Source in limitless Love. As I lay my thoughts on Holy Spirit’s altar and step back, I open the door to the gift of Love.

Mary:
As I open my mind to Spirit, the thought comes in that I rest in God… and that everyone rests in God along with me…

I can relax now… no need for efforting or trying to decide on my own what is helpful or not helpful… I need do nothing but step back and listen… the Holy Spirit does it all… There is no separate “I”… there are no separate people… all is continuously safe in the one Mind of God… This is my focus today.
