A New Way to See

Lies and Choices

Over the past few days I have been ensnared with different forms of guilt. Tonight I surrendered my thoughts of conflict so that I could hear the Inner Voice. I share here what I received. I trust that you may feel the peace that has been instilled in my mind. Thank you.

Spirit:
“Everything is this world comes from ego mind, the wrong mind. Everything you appear to see,
is a lie. All the thoughts that condemn you, are lies. The thoughts that are perpetuating the self that you mistake for your self, are lies. You are wrong only in accepting and believing the thoughts that hurt or punish you.

“To be able to follow Me, you must give up the lies. Lies have never helped you. Lies only hide the truth. Giving up the lies is very threatening to the ego system. It is what keeps it intact. But you have not left your Source, and there is no place for lies in the life you share with Love. It is merely your choice to keep lies or to let them go. Keep illusions or accept truth. What is your goal?

“Lies do not save you, nor protect you. Lies do nothing to the Truth. They merely shield the false world, making it appear real; making your real thoughts difficult to find. Lies are like the clouds of fear that seem to surround you. They have no power over you. All power lies in your choice.
you can remain in fear, or you can step beyond fear into the Light.

(Me: This debt seems very real to me, and I am afraid that I will never be out this debt—- this weighs me down, crushes me with fear. Jesus, How do I let this go?)

“Go back to the steps; this is a dream. You are the dreamer of the dream.
You have made the images is your dream. When you forget, you take the images seriously, as very real.
This is only a dream. You are the dreamer. Remember that you are the dreamer. The wrong mind rallies against this remembering,
for it wants to keep you the victim, the loser in every way. It wants to keep control over the mind that it senses will let it go. But this wrong mind is not real, it has no power, no home.
What is real cannot be threatened.

“Child of God, if you dream that you have attacked, then you believe that you can be attacked, and even deserve attack. Learn, that the dream of separation never happened. You never attacked Love, you never left your Source. You can choose a new dream, you can choose to let the unhappy dream be undone with the Help of Holy Spirit. That is the way that “works,” using His Guidance undoes the errors of the ‘attacking’ dream. Every fear will be undone as you choose, and allow His Guidance to give you a new view of what you “see” in your dream.
In the letting go, you will be free of the unhappy, fearful dream. In letting go, so will you be released.
Remember, this is a dream, you are the dreamer, you have Divine Help always.

Running from the Light

I was encouraged to share some of the thoughts that came into my awareness tonight. Once again I am gratefull for the Presence of Holy Spirit or Jesus, to give me the encouragment and reassurance, as I am tempted with ego thinking.

The temptation for me is to run away; whenever faced with challenges, pain or circumstances, in the past I would choose to run away.
After all, isn’t that what the characters in fairy tales did? They would run away, and somehow in the end they would have a good outcome. I tried to live in a Disney type fairy land with happy endings every where. And of course, this is just fine with the ego system of thought: “seek but do not find”. As long as I keep buying into the dream tale that I have made, I will continue to seek without finding. Thank goodness, I have been given a Teacher, Holy Spirit, to guide me throughout my dream.

Spirit:
It is as simple as opening a door… to look within and see the truth shining there in you.
But you are afraid of even opening the door, for what you might find there.
This is an ego fantasy, and the split mind does not want you to find the truth, that is always within you.
Looking within is the most healing thing you can do for yourself. For the Love that abides in you, supports you, lives you, will heal the fears that accompany you in the dream you have made. Be willing then, to simply lay down the bar that you hold against the door, let yourself look inward to the Light that is waiting for you.

Look within and trust the One that is Guiding you. Trust in the One that offers you the true way out of the hypnotizing dream that you think is real. Trust that you will never be alone on the path; that you are held forever safe, loved, healed and whole. This Guide knows the truth about you, and that the truth never changes.
  I offer you my hand to hold, as you open the door to see the light, and the truth. Hold onto my hand, for it is not a vain fantasy, it is not hollow, without meaning. I am with you, more certain then the sun that appears to rise in the sky each day. I am with you, stronger then the winds that blow across the plains. I am with you, you need not fear to look within and see the Light that shines.

Me:  Why do I accept the feeling that I’m a hopeless failure? This is ego’s idea, is it so familiar and comfortable? But it brings guilt and pain. Why accept what is so un-real and alien to me?
The inner aspect cries: “I want to go home, I want to go home. Enough of this charade of being independent and ‘strong and able’. I want to go home.”
Maybe in truth it is the Christ child wanting to go Home.?
Dear Jesus, I’m SICK of hurting—mentally and physically. I’m SICK of hurting!! I’m SICK of being wretched and unhappy. I’m SICK of needing some one else’s “love” to make me feel worthy!

Jesus:
You DO know how to forgive, you DO! It is there in your real mind (or right mind).
It is like having a tape player and choosing which button to press. You look at the button that says “repeat” and then you push the button that says “erase”. It is like that in every choice you make—you choose to “repeat” or you choose “erase”.

To repeat is to hold onto whatever makes you sick (guilty). To erase is to release whatever appeared in your story as an upset. To erase means you choose not to be upset, not to choose images that you made to justify your thoughts. To erase means that it is unreal and you have recognized its falsity.
Remember, only 2 buttons are there, “repeat” and “erase”.
You know how to forgive—it is with you all the time.
