Message: I will step back and let Him lead the way. There is a way of living in the world that is not here, although it seems to be. ²You do not change appearance, though you smile more frequently. ³Your forehead is serene; your eyes are quiet. ⁴And the ones who walk the world as you do recognize their own. ⁵Yet those who have not yet perceived the way will recognize you also, and believe that you are like them, as you were before. The world is an illusion. ²Those who choose to come to it are seeking for a place where they can be illusions, and avoid their own reality. ³Yet when they find their own reality is even here, then they step back and let it lead the way. ⁴What other choice is really theirs to make? ⁵To let illusions walk ahead of truth is madness. ⁶But to let illusion sink behind the truth and let the truth stand forth as what it is, is merely sanity. This is the simple choice we make today. ²The mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence, for those to look upon who chose to come, and have not yet rejoiced to find they were mistaken in their choice. ³They cannot learn directly from the truth, because they have denied that it is so. ⁴And so they need a Teacher Who perceives their madness, but Who still can look beyond illusion to the simple truth in them. …there is another road that leads away from loss of every kind, for sacrifice and deprivation both are quickly left behind. ²This is the way appointed for you now.” (A Course in Miracles, W-155.1-3;5:1-2. See also ACIM Lesson 155 Insights.) The ego is a control freak. It is certain that it knows what we need, what will make us happy, and how to get it. It sees itself as alone, in constant conflict with a world that would deny it everything that it wants or needs. Yet it denies our only real need — to be the Love that our loving Father created us to be. We do not need to accept the ego’s control. In every moment we have the option to step back and let the Holy Spirit lead the way. He will help us reinterpret our misperceptions to show us that we are the Love we seek. He will teach us how to forgive the ego’s denial of Love. Free from the ego, we will extend the Love we are to the world and find happiness and peace. https://www.pathwaysoflight.org/index.php/daily_inspiration/13195
