Letting Ourselves Be Guided

It is quite possible to listen to God’s Voice all through the day without interrupting your regular activities in any way. The part of your mind in which truth abides is in constant communication with God, whether you are aware of it or not.…

The part that is listening to the Voice for God is calm, always at rest and wholly certain. It is really the only part there is. The other part is a wild illusion, frantic and distraught, but without reality of any kind. Try today not to listen to it. Try to identify with the part of your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to hear God’s Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your Creator has not forgotten His Son. (A Course in Miracles, W-pI.49.1:1-2;2)

As the bridge between our Creator and the dream we have made, the Holy Spirit sees the dream but does not believe it. We are told here that it is quite possible to function in the world but not believe it by paying attention to the Voice for God. We do this by focusing on the part of our mind that is always at peace and always certain. It is here that we hear God’s Voice.

We dedicate today to being vigilant for this place of peace within and receptive to the Holy Spirit’s guidance, which will always lead us with Love. This is how we will let God’s Voice speak to us all through the day.

Everyone’s Innocence Is Guaranteed by God

Salvation requires the acceptance of but one thought;—you are as God created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the truth about you is unchanged. Creation is eternal and unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. You are and will forever be exactly as you were created. Light and joy and peace abide in you because God put them there. (A Course in Miracles, T-pI.93.7)

Whenever there appears to be attack of any kind, from a ‘minor’ judgment to murder and suicide, it is important to remind ourselves that Light and joy and peace abide in everyone and everyone remains as God created them. God did not create bodies and so they are not there in truth. What is not there cannot harm or be harmed. The Light and joy and peace we are is eternal and unchangeable.

As we can accept this central thought, our minds return to peace. We remain at Home in the rock solid changelessness of God’s Love. Loss is impossible. Guilt is inconceivable in God’s Love, which guarantees our innocence. In this thought lies our freedom from guilt and pain. In this thought we rest in the certainty of God. And we give thanks.

Only Love Is There

Today it is our opportunity, once again, to see past the image making of separation to the truth that only Love is real. Changeless Love is our inheritance. Today we practice opening up to our inheritance and letting its healing Light heal our misperceptions. Our misperceptions make illusions of conflict and dismemberment. In truth we are eternally joined as one changeless Spirit of Love.

We give time today to let the Holy Spirit return us to the truth that only Love is there. Here we see that we are blessed and can only bless. Here we receive Holy Spirit’s gift and extend it to the world. In peace and joy, we give thanks.

A Prayer of Gratitude

Thank You, Father, for Your changeless Love. Thank You that Your Will for me is perfect happiness. Thank You for my brothers, whom You created one with me as Your one Son. Thank You for Your eternal gift of peace. Thank You for Your grace, which knows no illusions and thus they cannot be made real. Thank You that I remain as You created me — Love and nothing else.

The Joy of God Is Ours Now

Joy is an attribute of peace. If we want to be happy, we have to accept the peace of God within. That peace is ever present, but any judgment hides this peace from our awareness. When we let go of judgment — forgive — peace and joy fill our awareness. Our happiness does not depend upon any circumstance in the world. Happiness is a natural condition of accepting the will we share with God.

Today we practice stepping back from all our judgments and letting Holy Spirit show us the joyous Love that is everywhere. With His help we will see the happy face of Christ in everyone we meet. The joy within will extend out to bless every circumstance and everyone we meet or even think of. The joy of God is ours now. Today we would accept it in gratitude and peace.

Remembering Our Identity in Heaven Within

There is a place in you where this whole world has been forgotten; where no memory of sin and of illusion lingers still. There is a place in you which time has left, and echoes of eternity are heard. There is a resting place so still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden God the Father and the Son. Where Both abide are They remembered, Both. And where They are is Heaven and is peace.

…The changelessness of Heaven is in you, so deep within that nothing in this world but passes by, unnoticed and unseen. The still infinity of endless peace surrounds you gently in its soft embrace, so strong and quiet, tranquil in the might of its Creator, nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. (A Course in Miracles, T-29.V.1:1-5;2:3-4)

The peace of Heaven is always in us and cannot leave us. Our practice for today is to open wide the doors within to receive the gift of our Inheritance. Receiving God’s gift of peace is not a little gift. It is the gift of Heaven. We let ourselves be carried as we receive God’s gift of peace today. We row our boat gently down the stream, remembering it is just a dream.

A Day of Vigilance for Peace

Today we practice being vigilant for peace. Peace is the condition that makes way to receive Holy Spirit’s guidance and inspiration. We would follow. We would not lead. Our safety and our joy lie in following His lead and deciding nothing on our own. Together with Him we row gently down the stream and learn that this world is but a dream. With this practice we allow the Holy Spirit to use time for His purpose on our behalf. With Him this day brings us closer to our awakening to our Home in Heaven. And we give thanks.
