A New Way to See

Another Answer

I am in the experience of moving again, that is moving forms in the dream to another location. I am given opportunties to let go of the ego thought train, as things shift in my dream.

An example from yesterday: Having been in this city for a relatively short amount of time, I do not have many friends to ask favors of. I seemed to have a “problem” in finding help to move a heavy object. One person that had offered his help, would not be able to come on the day when another friend’s truck was available. Each time the ego would grab onto the thoughts about this circumstance, I would repeat to myself, “I can hardly wait to see the good that comes from this.” I was accepting that there was another way to “see” this “problem,” a way that I could not fathom. I was willing to be shown another way, letting Spirit lead me.

I found myself asking an acquaintance, if he would be willing to help move a heavy piece of furniture. He said he would. If I had stayed in the worry mode, or allowed fear to run the train of thinking, I would have not felt “qualified” to even ask this person for assistance.

In looking at my mistaken thoughts I have found, I am mistaken in thinking that I am tired. I am mistaken in thinking that some one is taking advantage of me. I am mistaken in thinking that I am lacking in any way. I can not think by myself, I either choose the ego train of thought, or I choose to see differently and accept the sight that comes from sharing Love’s Mind.

The True Voice is in my mind all through the day, I can listen to this Voice any time that I am so willing. I grow weary of listening to the ego system, it is what seems to make me tired. I feel weakened when it seems some one is taking undue control over my choices or life. Yet it is really my projection of fear that causes feelings of weakness. I feel lack when I have listened to ego system of unworthiness. If I should accept any gift of love offered to me in the dream, the insane thoughts of attack keep me chained to illusions of scarcity, limitation, and guilt. The insane thoughts, I am learning to recognize as attempts to keep me hypnotized, in a delusional state. The insane voice tries to keep the separation “real” in my mind. I am still practicing on changing what voice I listen to as I go through the day.

I am not alone in the thoughts I experience. The thoughts can come from a fear base, or they can come from Love’s foundation. On some days I find it a certain relief that the thoughts of which I am aware, are not my real thoughts. They are foolish imagining, a silly whim to attempt to prove that I am something other then what Love created. As such thoughts are given over to Holy Spirit for correction, then I become aware of the real thoughts that I share in Love. When I accept correction for mistaken thoughts, I am given the freedom that comes from a shift in my mind. How grateful I am for Spirit’s constant Answer! How grateful I am for a “better way.”
