V. The Sane Curriculum, P 4
4 The Holy Spirit’s Love is your strength, for yours is divided and therefore not real. You cannot trust your own love when you attack it. You cannot learn of perfect love with a split mind, because a split mind has made itself a poor learner. You tried to make the separation eternal, because you wanted to retain the characteristics of creation, but with your own content. Yet creation is not of you, and poor learners do need special teaching.

Now that I am ready to wake up, the idea of making separation eternal is insane, thus I am given a sane curriculum to study. I made this world I see and so I believe in it. I will not be able to teach myself how to let it go. For this I need another teacher; I need the Holy Spirit’s help. I tried to retain the characteristics of creation but with my own content. Well that has not worked out so well.
I need special teaching and I am ready for that. I am committed to this Course and I will do the work I need to do in order to accept that I need do nothing. This Holy Spirit’s curriculum is not complicated or hard, but it does require vigilance and consistency. In the Course we are given a simple three step process of looking with the Holy Spirit at our thoughts, choosing to let Him correct them, and accepting His correction. As I do this, my mind is healed and made whole.
Only my attraction to guilt and the fear of God keep me from fully accepting the Atonement right now, and this is something I am learning through the Holy Spirit’s sane curriculum to let go. I do it a step at a time as I notice guilt and fear being expressed in the classroom of my life, and ask the Holy Spirit to undo them for me. It seemed I had to do this often to get where I am now, more prepared to let the whole idea of guilt and fear go.
It seemed an impossible task and would be if it were not so heavily reinforced. I am surrounded by His angels, guided by masters who have gone before me, fully supported by a host of helpers. And the Holy Spirit has a home in my mind and so I am never alone and never without my Teacher. I cannot fail to learn because it is not my strength on which I lean, but the Holy Spirit’s Love.
