A New Way to See

My Purpose is to Love

Hello One Light,
I had some projections going on, that I looked at with my observer mind. The following 3 paragraps are the thoughts I made notes of, the remainder is then what H.S. gave me.

There it is again—thinking I have to run my own show because I have to rely on myself. Having expectations and demands of the way things should be.
Instead of truly listening I have been demanding that “outside” circumstances change. I have conveniently denied that what I “see” outside is only the reflection of my state of mind.

Thinking that I “know” what I want brings me pain. The ego mind thinks this is good because it thinks pain is pleasure or joy. If I think that real joy and love are pain then I will avoid them at all cost. Therefore, let me be taught by a Teacher that knows the truth and knows What I am.

What do I want? I want peace. Everything I seem to do in my dream world is the attempt to claim peace as mine. I look for peace, because in peace I feel the Love and It’s abiding state of safeness and love.

Spirit: Your “purpose” is to love. If you follow the ego mind then you cannot love, for the ego system knows nothing of love. If you follow Spirit, then no matter the outer appearance or circumstance, you will extend love in whatever way is most helpful.

You do not need a counterbalance, nor a plan, nor defense or attack to survive in the world. All is given to you; all is given to all.

Sara, practice your listening all thru the day, with eyes open. It is by your level of peace as to which voice you hear. If you are ‘planning’ for an unknown future, that is not peace. If you are visiting the past, that is not peace. If you are doubting, questioning, procrastinating, those are not peace. You need not wonder “when” your desires will be filled or how and when to extend love. Be open to the Presence that is within you—-your Inner Spirit will Guide you in every moment. As you practice listening all thru the day, you will find the perfect times for scribing
and journaling, for you will be Guided to them and through them.

Be Content

Recently I was having another dialogue with that part of my mind (in reality is not real) yet I continue to “tussel” with it. It is Spirit’s Voice that sets me aright, and returns me to peace, as I lay down the insistence of the false mind to make things different in my dream. A sense of guilt had drifted into my awareness,  a shortened dialogue follows:

Only the ego can feel guilty—- why am I listening to the ego? Why do I choose to deny the Truth? Why do I hold onto the lies and the images? Why live in a dream that causes pain and separation? What is wrong with Wholeness? With communication? With Union?
If I feel alone and lost, that is a lie. If I feel sad, that is a lie. If I feel regret that is a lie. I do not have to pay for my “sins.” I need only let go of all that I hold onto—-just to let go of the false….. yeh yeh…. that’s the last thing the ego mind wants me to do. This whole dream world is false…. “so how do I let go of that?” it wants to know.

Holy Spirit says: “Just a piece at a time…. only a piece at a time. There is no rush. You are safe. There is no hurry. Each little idea that hurts you, simply hand it to Me…. you can relax. Each little thought that takes you away from peace, give to me, for I will correct it always. With a gentle touch, with rememberance, you are free. Free of chains of doubt, sorrow, fear, guilt and loveless thoughts. The truth has set you free, you need only accept the truth as it was given you.

“Leave yesterday behind, begin each day anew. There is no past that can touch you, unless you choose to take it with you, this you need not do.
Be content with each day, each moment shining bright. Every encounter is there for you to shine your light, give your peace, extend the love that you are. Forgive the thought of what
you think you are. Forgive the choices that you have made. You are a guiltless Child of God, that is all you are.”

And I thank H.S. for His constant gentle reminder of Truth and Love; I thank Love for always being present. Thank you, for another opportunity to share the Light.
