The Blessing of Willingness

Mary:  This morning many thoughts about the world swirl in and out. All the stories I hear in the world and my own story dance around in my head. This morning we read A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 139, “I will accept Atonement for myself.” This wonderful lesson reminded me once again to step back from the stories.

“Nothing the world believes is true. It is a place whose purpose is to be a home where those who claim they do not know themselves can come to question what it is they are. And they will come again until the time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible to doubt yourself, and not to be aware of what you are.” W-pI.139.7:1-3

Reading this lesson this morning really helped me step back and remember that I am eternal Spirit. I am under no laws but God’s. All the stories are not true. Nothing has happened to change God’s one Son. We all are in Heaven now and our denial of What we are and Where we are does not change anything, for we remain as God created us. We remain safe in God.

I take a deep breath and let this truth in. I let myself feel the truth that nothing has really ever “happened” but the eternal extension of God’s Love. I breathe it in and let the Light of truth dissolve all the fear thoughts that I was holding on to. I allow myself to rest awhile in the truth.

The importance of willingness comes into my mind; the importance of being willing to let go or forgive the false dream of separation is there. I accept Holy Spirit’s help in letting go of the dream. As I do this I feel the difference. The Holy Spirit takes my little willingness to forgive and transforms the fear thoughts into the Light of Love. Here there is certainty. This is what is eternally true. And I thank God that this is so. I am reminded once again to let myself be carried as I go through this day.

Robert:  I want to have a happy day today. I know I will have a happy day if I let Love lead the way. Today is another gift I give myself by stepping back and letting Love be my Guide in all my doing, in all my seeing, in all my thoughts.
