Today’s Idea

Spirit: Today’s idea (God is my strength. Vision is His gift.) reminds you of what you want in truth. It reminds you of what you are and what is yours.  Open your mind today to the idea that God is your strength and vision is His gift. Your mind is very holy because it is part of God’s. There is nothing your holiness cannot do—which includes changing your mind/thoughts about everything.

God’s peace is with you every moment and you can touch this gift and give it. God’s strength in you will remove any obstacles to peace, simply by your asking. You want only what is truly yours. Lay down the misinformation you have taught yourself. As you accept peace you will be led and even carried out of the maze of conflict and confusion. In accepting peace you know your purpose and goal are the same as Holy Spirit’s. Accept peace and be certain of the Life within you that offers only Love.
You live and move in God. In peace you accept His gift.

What I Think Is Real

Spirit: What you think is real has made you fearful and feeling alone. You think what you have made has value and truth, but it is only illusion. Illusions are one, they are all the same, and they prevent the light from shining in your mind, showing you the false is nothing and what you fear never abandoned you. You are forever safe and loved, forever sinless and complete.

Make one illusion valuable and you must accept them all as meaningful. Yet there is one illusion that undoes all the rest—that you can use without distress. Forgiveness is the one that will not make more illusions, and gives gentle rest to the frantic mind. Forgive yourself for denying what you are and What created you. Forgive yourself for dreaming of special favor. For what you think is real was never done, a world of time and space never took the place of the eternal Love you share. Your dreaming has not changed one true thing and you have never been separated from your Home and Love.

Dreams are nothing and you can let them go. The time of terror was over long ago and has no power over you. Accept only what Love has given you and put no faith in the illusion of a place apart from Love. You are not alone. Your mind is holy and you are a part of God.

Thoughts That Hurt

When I chose to forget that I was God’s Son, that seemed to cement the separation in place. My perception can change when I am willing to see differently. What I think “I know” is really meaningless. I have given all the meaning to what I see, and from the belief that I am separate my meanings are inaccurate, incorrect, nonsensical, and basically wrong.

Can I, or will I, admit that I am wrong? Will I seek true correction from Divine Spirit, my true Self? Or do I continue to muddle my way through the illusions of my dreaming? What do I really want? Do I really want to be right? and miserable? Or am I willing to release my perceptions, thoughts and beliefs of what or who I am? Do I really want to be right and make God wrong?

If I insist on being a miserable sinner, then that is what I experience, for Spirit does not interfere or deny my wishes however insane they are. If I desire to change my thoughts, Spirit will assist and guide me in every way. His only purpose is to lead me Home. My only purpose is to follow and bring my brothers with me.

My brothers are all with me, for they are in my mind. If I try to shut one out, then I will shut out divine Help. When I close the door on a brother, I am closing the door to Holy Spirit. This prevents my healing, it prevents the Light from entering and shining away the false thoughts. I must remember that my perceptions are wrong. Thoughts based on a foundation of separation will always be false and there is no way to make them true. When I maintain false ideas I only hurt myself. It is only the false (wrong) thinking that Spirit would remove; give all thoughts that hurt to Him.

Imagined Wants

I notice this morning, the ego is looking to find something to feel good with. It looked at various food items (ice cream, cookies, granola) but my Guide asked did I really want that? It seemed like ice cream gave me pleasure in the past, but it was only fleeting satisfaction. That is when I realized that any thing that the ego ‘offers’ me will never bring peace nor fill the the empty feeling within.

What I truly yearn for is connection with my Source. The child within seeks only to go Home, to rest in Love, and inhale the peace and joy ….. The call of Love asks simply that I let go of the imagined wants and needs, and to simply be what I am in truth. There is no striving in this, only a willingness. To cease my doing and to follow, to gently accept whatever appears to be happening, to receive meaning only from Holy Spirit. For when I choose to follow, I am led to remember what is true, where I am, and who I am.

In every choice I make, I either hold the hand of the ego or of my true Teacher. When I hold the ego’s hand I cannot enter my Home. I mistake illusions for reality when I choose the hand or help of the ego. When I choose the hand or help of my inner Teacher I have all of Heaven assisting me; I find my fears melt away like snow under a bright sun. I recognize that I love my Creator and He loves me.

I Have Another Choice

The ego has got my attention again. It is like a child: “Waaaah! I don’t have enough!”  At least now I identify the wannabes with the ego thought system; I can hear the fear, doubt, dismay and recognize that is is the ego system, and I have another choice—to not listen to it. Or I give the thoughts to Holy Spirit, for I do not want to make them real.

Only Love is real, I was reminded today. Only Love is real, and nothing from the thought system of hallucinations will ever be real. Only Love is real. I surrender all the insane thinking, all that I think I know, for the reality of Love. I am willing to let go, and let God. I am willing to wake from the dream of separation. I am willing to be a messenger for Love. I am willing to be healed, the mind healing that undoes all the rest. (That Holy Spirit unlearns for me). I do not know what anything is for or what anything means.

When I stop struggling to know anything or make it real, then I make room for Love to enter, for Holy Spirit to make correction. I step back from the thoughts of desperation and let peace permeate my mind, and my body. I am willing to see that the body does not need pleasures. I am willing to accept that body is only a thought form in my dream. Ego system has made the body to keep guilt/separation real. It sees that the body is corrupted, vile and without any redeeming value.
If I fall into the ego’s spell, then guilt is assured, the dream continues.

Father, I thank you for Your gifts to me and all the Sons.
Thank you for the Voice that You placed within my mind to guide me out of dreaming.
I am grateful that the truth is always true and was never changed by insane thinking.
Thank you that nothing but Love is true, only Love is real. amen.

You Are Peace

When I was in a state of peace yesterday (using Ho’oponopono) I heard—the Artificial Way.  I have no idea what that means or what it is for.
me: Spirit what would you tell me?

Spirit: You are peace. Peace is your Being. Peace is ‘where’ you began, and peace has no end. In the limited mind, there is no understanding of Peace.
In the One Mind there is only peace, only Love and complete Knowing. In the One Mind is Heaven.

Your job is to clean, clean, clean. Or release, release, forgive. They are the same.


Anything that comes up is there for cleaning that you may be free. This means anything that bothers, disturbs, irritates, threatens, angers, frightens you.
These too, are all the same. Know now that you have the key, a tool to use without fear, that will increase your steps to Home.
This tool of practice will lighten your walk, and deepen your breath. You will relax more and more, as peace becomes your sole goal.
Your deepest yearning is met in peace; peace is where all needs are filled.

At any moment that you are without peace, remember to use your tool, and seek for your mind to be cleaned.
You are much stronger in this practice. Do not forget this.  You are the life and light of Love. You are peace.

I responded: thank you, thank you, thank you.

Do Not Run Away

One day last month I received this from Spirit:

“Do not run away nor turn your back to Love. There is only one road to Home, and that you walk with Me. You can only move forward, there is no “back” so you either move forward or stand still. If you look back it is sure that fear will be there. Choose to look with Holy Spirit and you will see there is nothing there that is real. The thoughts of separation will vanish in the Light that Love extends.”

“Love holds you gently, surely, perfectly. You walk in Love showing every brother the blessings and healing that Love gives always. Walk the Way of Love and be not afraid. If you make mistakes they are washed gently away, if you perceive wrongly it is corrected when you choose again to hold H. Spirit’s hand. You are as Love created you, there is no loss to remember this.”

We read T.30.V - The Only Purpose section. What I ‘got’ from that was:
          It is always and only my thoughts that I am letting go of.
  Without forgiveness I experience pain (guilt).
  Forgiveness washes joyfully away all that stood between your image of   yourself and what you are.
