Message From A Movie

This morning I found my mind had been all over the place. Last night we watched “Good Will Hunting,” I’d totally forgotten the scene near the end where Sean tells Will, “It’s not your fault.” He repeats it again and again until Will really accepts it.

It reminded me that it is not my fault—I am innocent—no matter what I am choosing. If I’m afraid of waking to the truth, I am not guilty for that choice, I am only mistaken. I have incarcerated myself in guilt and then mistakenly thought that there is no way out. Still, I am not alone and the gentle Voice asks me to “Choose again.” I am being asked to give up any thought that hurts me, or any belief in guilt. Guilt has no cause. I have mistaken guilt for the truth. I need only to take any thought of guilt or fear and lay it on the alter for Holy Spirit to translate.

Message from Holy Self: It’s not your fault. It was not your job to make your parents happy. It’s not your fault that they were unhappy. It’s not your fault about what your mother chose. It’s not your fault that your father chose the role of alcoholic. What they chose for themselves was never your fault. It was not your responsibility. It’s not your fault—- it’s not your fault.

When you see those ancient perceptions rise in your thoughts, remember that perceptions are wrong. They will always be wrong until you give them to the Spirit of Love for correction. He will always heal the perception for you, never leaving you. You will never fail if you take all your perceptions to Him Who knows the truth about you and for you. The strength of Love is in you and will correct every perception that was made in error. You are innocent, sinless, for your only Cause was Love Itself.

You are breaking the chain of deception and self hate. You are accepting the truth and the love. You have learned to listen to the Voice for Love in your mind. You have learned that there is indeed another way to view the world, and your mind.

If you find confrontation in your thoughts, you know that you can choose again. You can view the thoughts or beliefs of separation with the Spirit of Love, and let Love heal your mind. You are all right. You are safe. You are loved, You are innocent.
There is no “better than,” or “worse than.” Choose again—- is to choose for Love, to see beyond the images to the Love that is there, and everywhere.

Today’s Idea

Spirit: Today’s idea (God is my strength. Vision is His gift.) reminds you of what you want in truth. It reminds you of what you are and what is yours.  Open your mind today to the idea that God is your strength and vision is His gift. Your mind is very holy because it is part of God’s. There is nothing your holiness cannot do—which includes changing your mind/thoughts about everything.

God’s peace is with you every moment and you can touch this gift and give it. God’s strength in you will remove any obstacles to peace, simply by your asking. You want only what is truly yours. Lay down the misinformation you have taught yourself. As you accept peace you will be led and even carried out of the maze of conflict and confusion. In accepting peace you know your purpose and goal are the same as Holy Spirit’s. Accept peace and be certain of the Life within you that offers only Love.
You live and move in God. In peace you accept His gift.

What I Think Is Real

Spirit: What you think is real has made you fearful and feeling alone. You think what you have made has value and truth, but it is only illusion. Illusions are one, they are all the same, and they prevent the light from shining in your mind, showing you the false is nothing and what you fear never abandoned you. You are forever safe and loved, forever sinless and complete.

Make one illusion valuable and you must accept them all as meaningful. Yet there is one illusion that undoes all the rest—that you can use without distress. Forgiveness is the one that will not make more illusions, and gives gentle rest to the frantic mind. Forgive yourself for denying what you are and What created you. Forgive yourself for dreaming of special favor. For what you think is real was never done, a world of time and space never took the place of the eternal Love you share. Your dreaming has not changed one true thing and you have never been separated from your Home and Love.

Dreams are nothing and you can let them go. The time of terror was over long ago and has no power over you. Accept only what Love has given you and put no faith in the illusion of a place apart from Love. You are not alone. Your mind is holy and you are a part of God.
