A New Way to See

Games in Fear

I have felt so scattered the past week…. and lonely. I know these feelings come from the ego system, but the thought behind the feelings, is still trying to hide. The ego wants me to believe that I am powerless, that I have no options to choose in healing. It wants me to believe that I am powerless…. that way it can keep playing its game, keep its “control” over the dream.

The ego mind keeps looking at the past to see what I had and what I left behind. It keeps looking for happiness wherever it thinks happiness is, but denying that happiness is here now. It wants to make time real.
It looks at the past and tells me what I’ve “lost.” It is programed to find loss, lack, scarcity, just the forms of fear. It is not programed to find happiness, truth or peace. It does not want to find those things at all, it merely wants to keep me preoccupied with the search so I will not stop to question where and why I am looking.
For if I question the where and the why, it means that I will change my mind about what is valuable to me and I will accept the perception and help from the place in my mind where peace and truth abide. I am learning to question the values of the ego mind, it’s pursuit of happiness is meaningless.

The truth is that the peace of God is shining in me now, I have the peace within me. This fact the ego would not let me know. As long as I keep choosing again, asking for correction from H.S. I will be released from the false thoughts. It is a daily, minute to minute process…
and the ego would like to have me think that it is too hard, that I’ll never succeed. It uses illusory time to keep the illusion of failure or future success in my mind. In each instant I need to turn to H.S. for help, to see past the illusion. I need help because I cannot get outside of the “box” by using the same system that made the box. I need the thought system that I did not dream up, I need guidance from the system that comes only from Love, and I need to follow that Voice, to use the information that comes from Love.

As I learn to let go of the thoughts and definitions that I wanted to have my meaning on them,
I learn that the Peace and Love that I thought I threw away, are still within me. I learn that
I have not abandoned Love, nor has Love left me. I learn that God’s Will is perfect happiness for me, and that I share that Will. I learn there is one Life, and that I share with God. I am surrounded by the Love of God. I can “see” again, with the eyes of Love, not the eyes of fear.
I choose again, and again, and again. I am willing to learn that I remain as Love created me.
Thank You God, I love You God!
