Watch Your Thoughts

Holy Spirit through Mary:  Watch your thoughts. The thoughts that come into your mind may be believed or not believed. This you control. Hand over this control to Me. Belief is powerful. Watch for thoughts which imply that you are weak and vulnerable to an outside world that is not coming from your mind. Watch for thoughts which imply that a world of separation is real. Hand them all over to Me. I know what to do with them. Hand over all the jumbled and constantly changing thoughts that cause you to feel that life is a struggle. Let me shine a light on all these thoughts and show you where your real power lies.

You want to feel the constant calm and peace of mind that come with joining with Me. You do this by joining with Me. In truth we are one Mind and not two. Practice opening your mind to allow My Light to shine on all the darkened corners. Allow the truth of your inner peace to be known to you. Allow the constant calm and joy of Love to come into your mind. Give peace a Home. Let it reside in your mind where it belongs. Let peace show the way and the way will be made simple.

Holy Spirit through Robert:  Your habit of planning for the future brings you pain and uncertainty. Along with it is an unwillingness to accept the present as it is. Your planning is an attempt to control the future based on a fear of change. The moment you accept the present as it is, all fear will disappear, for the present is changeless Love.

Your uncertainty and discomfort regarding the move to Florida comes from your unwillingness to accept the present as it is. You find it more appealing to think about the future and make plans than to focus on the present and accept what Is. This is simply because part of you still is attracted to the thought of separation and what you think it could offer you. So you see, this exercise of moving to Florida is providing you with rich learning opportunities to learn to recognize that all you really want is here and now.

Turn over all your discomforting thoughts, your questions, your doubts to Me and open your mind to My vision. I will show you the beauty that is in them now and you will easily disregard the meaningless forms with which you have hidden their present beauty. Joy is now. Peace is now. Love is now. These can be found in no other place and no other time.

You have been given a “circumstance” in which planning for the future seems very important. This provides you with a setting in which you can make great strides in learning to recognize that everything you need and want is here now. I am here to help you give yourself the blessing of this recognition.
