A New Way to See

Attachment

Dear Everyone, I share some “morning” thoughts with you. I have been reading Rev. Myron’s Daily Lessons (they are posted on her web site).
This is what stood out to me today, from Holy Spirit, Lesson 233:

“Imagine the thoughts moving through your mind and you are just watching them. What a strange parade they make. Playfully wave goodbye to them if you wish.
Just don’t reach out and grab them. This is what you are doing when you feel guilty or when you think they are important.
When this happens you attach to the thought and you believe it is part of who you are. While this is not true, and you have no power
to actually change your holy Self, your belief is very powerful and absolutely effects your experience.
When you feel attached to your thoughts and beliefs you think they are you, and it becomes frightening and painful
to let them go because you think you are losing your very self when you do.”  (italics are mine)

This explanation was so clear to me today! I must have been truly willing to have my error shown to me.
I can see how I got discouraged when I chose not to listen to H.S. It just allowed the egoic mind to retake footing, and make it seem that I had not accomplished any healing at all.  I gave up hope, or belief that I would come to right-minded thinking. If I am not my thoughts, then what am I? I must allow Holy Spirit to tell me, by myself I do not know. I cannot rely on my own thinking or ideas or beliefs to define what I am. I have fooled my self into such a dream/nightmare of separation, that I could not know or distinguish the truth.
So I am attaching to my thoughts when I feel guilt, and I need to remind myself that I am not my thoughts. In this moment, using “I am not my thoughts,” is the same to me as, “I am not a body.”  The thoughts of which I am aware represent the beliefs and wrong-mind that holds them. I can look at those thoughts and not be attached to them.

Now I have the tools (WB Lessons) to un-think the stories that I have made up. I have the ability to use what Jesus has given us/me to let go of the false and accept the true.
When I experience feelings that I do not like, I can remember that I must be believing that some thought is what I am. I am letting an illusion replace the truth in my mind. This is where I ask H.S.’s help to see it differently, and accept His healing answer.

Dear Everyone, I support you, in looking at the thoughts and not becoming attached to them.
The reason they have come up, is to be undone by Love.    Blessings are our healings.

Judgment

Dear Everyone, I share some recent “morning” thoughts with you.

Judgment is a defense against the truth. In reality there are no differences, so there is nothing to compare. Love’s creation in one, whole, complete.

Judgment perpetuates the idea that I am different than my brother (s). Judgment is making error real, and to the egoic mind, not forgivable. When I judge anything, I condemn myself. There is no “other” out there, appearing outside of “me.” By making error real, I keep myself imprisoned in fear that what I do to others will be done to me. But it is only “I” that does anything.
From the insane (unreal) thought there could be anything outside of All There Is, came the belief that I had moved outside of God and became a separate self.

A zillion projections make this separate world with separate bodies appear real. Like a magician, I exchange one illusion for another, attempting to feel safe, certain, beyond attack or retaliation. Perpetuating a dream is not what Love created me for. An idea of Love was made to extend love. When love is extended there is no thought of fear, no alien ideas of separation.
When love is extended there is only Love.

There is no reason to attack myself in a dream. There is no reason to perpetuate fear (aloneness). 
What is not real cannot have truth. Illusions in my mind have not made a body separate
from All That Is. I remain as Love created me. I remain an idea of Love; extending and still within Love. Illusion cannot be made real.
I am willing to stop seeing my illusions. I am willing to see differently, to see with Christ eyes, to listen with Holy Spirit’s ears, to move and speak as Holy Spirit moves and speaks.

I am as Love created me.
I am not a body. I am free.

Role of Chief Critic

Dear Everyone,

This morning, in the last part of a dream, I was sharing with a friend how my biggest fear was that I would not be able to let go of the ego, that insane voice.
When I woke, I heard: “I’m the Chief Critic.” I asked, who gave you this role?  Answer: “mother.”

The idea came that if I give up that role, that I’d be alone. Then came: “ I am not alone. I am safe in the arms of God.”
Nothing can harm me. Nothing can prevail against the truth. I am safe in the Love of God. I am as God created me.

The role of the chief critic was made in the attempt to have control over events (and) of life. It was made out of misperception that making others change will keep security (safeness), will keep balance (control), and keep failure (guilt) outside. The misperception keeps the role going.

I accepted this role thinking it was a sacred duty. But it is only a mistake. I can give this mistake to Holy Spirit for correction and undoing. I have denied the ways this role made me feel and think. I no longer deny the pain and grief that has been made. I decide that I am not happy and do not like the way I feel. Not liking the way I feel, I choose again, I choose the Holy Spirit to interpret for me. I choose Holy Spirit’s view and answer to whatever confronts me.

Being a critic is a defense against the truth. It tries to make sense of the unreal. It tries to make the unreal true. The critic denies the oneness of Love. It denies that I remain as Love created me. It denies the equality of God’s creation.

Dear Father, I am willing to change my mind. I am willing to release the role that I mistook as mine. I am willing to accept the function that is truly mine, as You created me.
I am willing to let go of the false ways of fearful thinking.
I am willing to follow the Guide that You have given me and everyone.
I am willing to listen and accept Love as my one purpose, peace as my only goal.
Thank you very much.

False Game of Honesty

Dear Everyone,

Recently in a sleeping dream, I was given an example of how the ego uses honesty to play the “one-upmanship” game. Such as: if I’m honest even without regard for your feelings, that makes me “superior.” But that is only an attack on the brother an attempt to make him “less than.” And if I use such devices, I keep more guilt then the ‘honest’ disclosure would erase. The game of honesty is cruel indeed in the hands of the ego.

Spirit: To be honest is to be truthful to your self. Being honest with your self, is to look at beliefs, thoughts, idols, not without fear but with the Holy Spirit. It is never a mistake to be honest with the H.S. The mistake is pushing down or denying some thought that keeps you in fear. When you hide some thought or belief from your awareness, you can be sure that you have mistaken the ego for your teacher, and have mistaken a lie for the truth. The Holy Spirit is your true Teacher, and would never make you more fearful. He only takes fear from your mind as you are willing; He restores the simple truth to you.

Dear Child, you came “here” to forgive the false, to overlook the lies and deception of an insane mind. The belief in guilt has made it insane, making the impossible seem real, the illusion seem solid. Your only purpose is to let go of the false beliefs, letting go of idols that hide the light and love in you. To know your Light, you must look past the form of your brothers, to the holy Light that they are and have always been.

Ask that your perception be corrected, ask to see the truth of your brothers.
This is all you need do—-  for so long you have thought there was nothing wrong with your sight and perception. You did not question what you saw. Yet what you “saw” was only your thoughts, appearing as an image. It is the same as the night dreaming. Thoughts are projected onto the screen of your mind and you think they are real.

With corrected perception, which is healed perception, you have no doubt about the innocence and purity of your brothers. You witness only the Light and Love that radiates from their Being. With healed perception, you know that you can only love your brothers, and that is no mistake. This is all you need, and all you want.

A Sick Thought

Dear Everyone, I share with you a sick thought that popped into mind today. I am grateful that I was willing to open to H.Spirit’s Voice and listen to His words.

The egoic system asks: “how can I do good while I am so vile?”
(Spirit) Dear One, you have no idea of all the good you do when you let go. Letting go of the past is the most loving thing you can do.

When you seek H.S.’s correction or guidance, you are asking to release the past as you made it. To see differently is to ‘see’ without the past, without the meanings that were devised and applied to each and every picture. The past is gone. What is only illusory can hardly hold meaning. The egoic mind seeks to keep the past and its misperceptions and judgments as real. The ego weeps each time an idol falls. It would hold tightly to the past, making sure there is no present and no future unlike its past.
Yet still it plasters the mind with expectations of glory or fame or wealth. And when these are attained, they are not good enough; if not attained then it makes the world unfair to you. So it holds that the past is always here, that you cannot escape from it. This might be true in dreams, but it has nothing to do with truth or Reality.

Child, you are learning! Bit by bit, you are letting go of the teachings of an insane teacher. You are learning that you do not want the “gifts” that the ego system offers you. You are learning to decline the gifts, no matter how beguiling they seem.
Did you not learn that being happy had nothing to do with the worldly events or people around you? Did you not learn that happiness is your choice?  And a gift to others?

Yes! you did. You cannot forget the truth of what you learned, however distant it may seem. Your holiness is guaranteed by God, by Love and all of Heaven. You must be holy because He is. You must be whole because He is whole. Nothing can, will, or ever has changed All That Is.
(Thank You G., I love U, God. Amen)

Begin Again

Dear Everyone,

This morning I opened to H.S. when I woke:  Holy Spirit, I feel so hopeless; discouraged; alone.       
I want to start over. I want to stop thinking that I know anything. Where do I begin?

Spirit: Dear Sara, you have chosen again. Yes, of course you can begin again——it is this you do whenever you choose again. You misunderstood your task, believing that you had to change every single thought of fear when it appeared. All that you really need do, is to let go of any thought that discomforts you, allowing that it be given to me. That is my function; I am here to relieve you of the burdens and the mistaken concepts that you hold. I am here to show you what is valuable and what is not.

You asked: “What am I here to learn?” Dear one, your only purpose is to let go of fear. Fear thoughts do not serve you, not in any way, shape or form. Any instant that you let go of fear, the Light flows through you from Heaven and touches all the sleeping minds. In letting go of fear thoughts, you fill your function. By letting go of what is unreal, the real is revealed to you. You allow the Truth to fill the spot that fear once held. All you need do, is give the fear thought to me. Your little willingness has all the strength of Heaven upholding it. When you let go of the meaningless (fear) the whole beauty of Truth radiates through and around you. Love extends without end, without disruption. Your true Heart abides in the radiance of Love.

Return to your workbook lessons. Observe the thoughts that pop up and do not be tempted to use them as an excuse to retreat or stop the lessons. You deserve to be wholly in peace, you deserve to wholly happy, you deserve complete, unshakable Love. As you choose to let go of fear, Love will comfort you. You truly have nothing to lose, only the removal of false ideas. By removing fear thoughts, you reveal that you have it all, just as you were created. You allow Love to be as It is. And as you are.

(me: Thank you very much.)

The Good News Is….

Dear Everyone,
The last couple of mornings, I was given these messages.
I am ever grateful that Spirit repeats and repeats His messages of Love, no matter how dense or stubborn my mind seems to be.
I know that is really is as simple as choosing again, for I have experienced the ‘change’ in all aspects of my “life” when I choose
to be happy, choose to keep a helpful/loving view of my world. Let me remember, let me remember!

Spirit: What is it the ego has really given you?
The good news is the Light is within you.
The “bad” news is you have to stop listening to the ego.

This is highly threatening to the ego system—for once you realize it’s un-reality and un-lovingness, you will not value it any longer. The value that you have given it
is solely in your mind. And it is only there that it needs to be undone.

I cannot help if you will not listen. I cannot go against your will. I cannot undo fear without your willingness to let go of it.

I am with you—and will never leave you. But the false mind thinks that it (and you) are alone because it chose to believe and make separation real. Separation is not real,
only a mad delusion from a sick mind. It is not this that you want. What is real cannot be threatened. What is unreal does not exist. Therein is the peace of God.

The Love that you Are has never changed. That Love is Real. What is Real cannot be changed. It is not threatened. Love is Real. What is Real is unchanged. You are Love.

The split mind has denied this truth. It tries to keep it’s illusions. It would not have you remember the truth. It tries to make any thing, any image, valuable to replace truth.
Do not accept it’s imitations as valuable.
Let go of the imitations and accept what I offer you. I offer truth, and hold it for you while you go from dream to dream. The dreams will not last.
You will wake. You will desire the truth, and peace and joy above all else. You are Love, guaranteed by God. Accept this now, and let the rest go.
