A New Way to See

Role of Chief Critic

Dear Everyone,

This morning, in the last part of a dream, I was sharing with a friend how my biggest fear was that I would not be able to let go of the ego, that insane voice.
When I woke, I heard: “I’m the Chief Critic.” I asked, who gave you this role?  Answer: “mother.”

The idea came that if I give up that role, that I’d be alone. Then came: “ I am not alone. I am safe in the arms of God.”
Nothing can harm me. Nothing can prevail against the truth. I am safe in the Love of God. I am as God created me.

The role of the chief critic was made in the attempt to have control over events (and) of life. It was made out of misperception that making others change will keep security (safeness), will keep balance (control), and keep failure (guilt) outside. The misperception keeps the role going.

I accepted this role thinking it was a sacred duty. But it is only a mistake. I can give this mistake to Holy Spirit for correction and undoing. I have denied the ways this role made me feel and think. I no longer deny the pain and grief that has been made. I decide that I am not happy and do not like the way I feel. Not liking the way I feel, I choose again, I choose the Holy Spirit to interpret for me. I choose Holy Spirit’s view and answer to whatever confronts me.

Being a critic is a defense against the truth. It tries to make sense of the unreal. It tries to make the unreal true. The critic denies the oneness of Love. It denies that I remain as Love created me. It denies the equality of God’s creation.

Dear Father, I am willing to change my mind. I am willing to release the role that I mistook as mine. I am willing to accept the function that is truly mine, as You created me.
I am willing to let go of the false ways of fearful thinking.
I am willing to follow the Guide that You have given me and everyone.
I am willing to listen and accept Love as my one purpose, peace as my only goal.
Thank you very much.
