Using the Dream for the Purpose of Awakening

Robert:
As I write this, it seems that I am in a world of form. I seem to be in a body, looking out upon a world of earth and sky, bodies and buildings. I understand that this is a dream, yet the challenge seems to be to step back from the dream and let the Holy Spirit take the lead. In today’s reading of A Course in Miracles, this prayer stood out to me, “Let me, then, use this dream to help Your plan that we awaken from all dreams we made.” (W-pII.294.2:3)

This helps clarify my focus as I go through the day. All my doing is dedicated to helping God’s plan for our awakening. This is all that really matters. It does not mean that I need to deny the fact that I appear to be in a body in a world of form. But it gives a holy purpose to every form and every activity because I use it for the one function that leads out of the dream. That’s all I really want. I want to forgive the world. I want to forgive myself. I want to forgive God and accept His joyful gift of changeless Love. This is my prayer today: Let me use this dream to help God’s plan of awakening.

Mary:
The Light of God is shining in me now. It is my opportunity today to accept that Light and extend it to all. Light recognizes only Light. My opportunity today is to see the Light in everyone I encounter or even think of. My practice is to let the truth return to my mind today. With the truth comes peace and simple, uncomplicated Love. I choose to receive the truth of Love’s oneness today.
