Journal for Day 41
LESSON 41
God goes with me wherever I go.
Of course, God goes with me wherever I go. We are inseparable. There is not even the most microscopic degree of separation between us. We are one with each other. Every problem I have ever had or could conceive of is because I think I could be separated from God. I think I could go someplace without God. It is completely impossible and therefore, I have no problems.
In the illusion of a world that I have dreamed up, the place where I pretend that God cannot trespass, my problems seem very real and they are serious and sometimes tragic. But how could there be tragedy in God? And how could I, who am one with God experience anything not in God? That God goes with me wherever I go is the reason there is nothing my holiness cannot do. God is my holiness and God is in me as I am in God.
My creative imagination, which also comes from God, has made up this world that I envision. To borrow from the Buddhists, my mind is a clear blue sky and the clouds floating across it are my thoughts. When these thoughts are dark they obscure the sky but they cannot destroy the sky. In the same way, the thoughts of an existence opposite of God are obscuring what I am, but cannot change or destroy what I am.
The fact that I believe I have changed or destroyed God is the reason I have been afraid to have the obscuring clouds removed. It is a silly bit of reason, as if I could think away God and still exist. Jesus says that meditation will quicken my return to sanity and help me to move through the clouds to the clear sky behind them.
I’m doing the best I can with meditation. I am also releasing the dark thoughts to the Holy Spirit and doing so with ever-increasing confidence that they are gone. I then replace them with true thoughts, knowing that because I want to awaken, the help I need is given to me. As Jesus says: “Deep within you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate through you and out into the world.”
My holiness that is of God will envelop each problem and heal it for myself and for anyone else. My holiness does not need my help to do this. It only needs my desire that it come forward. My desire is very strong because I would no longer suffer out of allegiance to these dark thoughts. There is nothing to seek. All that I need is in me. All I need is me.
