You are the One Self whether you are aware of It or not.
Your mind functions by means of a Light that comes from beyond it.
The Light of the Self pervades the body-mind of separation; without this Light, there would be no mind.
You cannot use this Light of Mind creatively however, for the body-mind reduces this creative power of the universe to partial perception, conceptualization which it regards as thinking, and habit patterns of thought and feeling.
It is as if you took the power produced by a huge dynamo and used it to run a toy train.
Very little of the power potentially available to you is actually used in your life.
Even that is misused to make sure this greatly reduced mode of functioning is maintained.
The Light within you is brighter than a thousand suns, brighter by far.

Whatever stands in the way of your freedom needs to be thoroughly examined.
What you are unaware of nonetheless exerts an influence on your mind.
The many obstructions to the return of Truth, collectively make salvation impossible.
Essential to your awakening is the uncovering of all that denies it.
All the dark places where unforgiveness hides in your mind must be exposed, that the Light of Love may shine on what they conceal, and forgiveness replace all grievances.
The many fears that lurk beneath the threshold of conscious awareness must be brought to the light of day, that you may see the insanity of your mind, and let all fear be healed.
All the mental tendencies and habits of a lifetime must be clearly examined, and evaluated by the standards of Truth. Those found wanting must be given over to correction, to be replaced by what is helpful.
Truth is Spirit, Mind, Light, Love, and peace.

It is essential that error be not confused with “sin,” and it is this distinction which makes salvation possible.
For error can be corrected, and the wrong made right.
But sin, were it possible, would be irreversible.
The belief in sin is necessarily based on the firm conviction that minds, not bodies, can attack.
And thus the mind is guilty and will forever so remain unless a mind not part of it can give it absolution.
Sin calls for punishment as error for correction, and the belief that punishment is correction is clearly insane.
Sin is not an error, for sin entails an arrogance which the idea of error lacks.
To sin would be to violate reality and to succeed.
Sin is the proclamation that attack is real and guilt is justified.
It assumes the Son of God is guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making himself what God created not.
Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of God open to opposition and defeat.
Sin is the “grand illusion” underlying all the ego’s grandiosity.
The Son of God can be mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can even turn the power of his mind against himself.
But he cannot sin.
There is nothing he can do that would really change his reality in any way.

The miracle of the holy instant lies in your willingness to let it be what it is.
And in your willingness for this lies also your acceptance of yourself as you were meant to be.
Your difficulty with the holy instant arises from your fixed conviction that you are not worthy of it.
And what is this but the determination to be as you would make yourself?
God did not create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him.
You have been wrong in thinking that it is needful to prepare yourself for Him.
And if you believe He cannot enter where He wills to be, you must be interfering with His Will.
You do not need the strength of willingness to come from you, but only from His Will.
The holy instant is always the result of your small willingness combined with the unlimited power of God’s Will.
God’s Will for you is Happiness.

If you knew Who walks beside you on this way to Light which you have chosen, fear would be impossible.
You do not know because the journey into darkness has been long and cruel, and you have gone deep into it.
You go toward love, still hating it and terribly afraid of its judgment upon you.
And you do not realize that you are not afraid of love, but only of what you have made of it.
You are advancing to love’s meaning and away from all illusions in which you have surrounded it.
You who hold each other’s hand in your relationship is this world’s light.
26 October 2020
Today, only be still and listen to the Voice of Love that is ever-present in the center of your heart.
Remember, whenever your mind wanders in the old maze of relentless ego schemes, willingly refuse the lies of fear and return your allegiance to the Peaceful Truth of Love that dwells within.
You are as God created you!
Thank God, only Love is real.

There is no more effective way to begin to free yourself from the egoic misidentification and its consequences than to turn over decision making to the Holy Spirit.
This is what is meant by surrender.
You have relied on the ego as your guide and identity for too long, and it has cost you dearly in sorrow and torment.
The most effective way to withdraw your egoic allegiance is to turn your life over to the Guide God has given you.
He will not fail to lead you out of the trap you have made and back to freedom in God.
Can you surrender to the Higher Power?
That is the important question.
24 October 2020
Surrender is essential in spiritual life.
The ego bound personality is accustomed to living the way it chooses and making its own decisions, or so it thinks.
In actuality, no decisions are made on your own.
Every decision is made in concert with the guide you have chosen.
There are only two: the ego and The Holy Spirit within you.
The ego is the belief system of an independent, separate me.
The Holy Spirit speaks for the Love within you that is God’s Love in your perfect Soul.
23 October 2020
Here is the way to Heaven, the state of Unity you once knew and will know again: surrender, patience, unwavering trust, perseverance, and constant willingness.
These qualities, these capacities, must be developed to transform the way you live now.
They must be applied to the process of returning to Truth, and withdrawn from their dedication to upholding illusion.
Surrender is essential in spiritual life.
22 October 2020
Today, pay keen attention to the blessings that come to you with the presence of every beloved and every situation.
Gratitude is itself a blessing that has the strength and power of Creation.
This day, devoted to gratitude, will open your heart and fill your spirit with the Light of God’s Grace.
Rejoice with gratitude that only Love is real

Whenever you are not happy, not joyful, it is because you have decided not to be.
This is not a conscious decision to not be happy, but is rather a choosing of thoughts and feelings that make happiness impossible.
If you seek for happiness where it cannot be found, you will not be happy.
You need not search for happiness, it is not here among the things of this world.
Like all that is true, happiness simply is.
To be truly happy is to be happy for no reason.
Being not of this world, happiness does not depend on conditions or circumstances.
You need only decide to be as you truly are and happiness will rush to greet you.
The Holy Spirit will guide you in the ways of happiness, for He needs you to be a happy learner.
20 October 2020
Whatever arises in your mind as thought or feeling comes from one of two sources: the ego or the Holy Spirit.
There are no others.
The ego speaks to you through a constant stream of thoughts, feelings, and impulses, whose purpose is to dominate the conscious mind, control its attention faculty, and keep it busy reacting to and acting out egoic content.
You can change your mind about the world’s purpose, accepting the Holy Spirit’s purpose in place of the one you have given it.
To do so is necessary if you would free yourself from its effects, and allow miracles to enter your life.
Accept the Holy Spirit’s purpose for everything in your life, and allow Him to assign meaning and use everything that happens for your awakening.
To listen to Him is to bring the present alive in your mind.
19 October 2020
Today, be willing to close the door of your mind’s ceaseless chatter, as you relinquish your feverish need to be right about what you think you know.
God’s Will for you is happiness.
Your purpose is to remember that the little self you made is just an illusion, but your true Self is all innocent perfection.
You are still as God Created.
Your perceived journey has dragged along within your mind’s illusion of time.
Humbly bow to God in gratitude and relief that your ideas and schemes of struggle and proving are simply ego lies to be surrendered and rejected.
Thank God only Love is real.
18 October 2020
Today, allow the blessing of open inquiry to be your guide.
Declare your intention to uncover your inner Self, as you willingly surrender into the Hands of God the self-concept you unconsciously made in the erroneous belief of fearful illusions.
Simply affirm, as often as possible, that you do not know who you are, and therefore, do not know what you are doing, what it is for, where you are, or how to look on the world or on yourself.
Be gratefully willing to surrender all of the false identity of erroneous “knowing”.
In this sacred surrender you will find the peace and freedom of Eternal Love…One Heart
17 October 2020
Your task is not to seek for love but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself which you have built against it.
It is not necessary to seek for what is true, but it is necessary to seek for what is false.
Every illusion is one of fear, whatever form it takes.
And the attempt to escape from one illusion into another must fail.
If you seek love outside yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred within and are afraid of it.
Yet peace will never come from the illusion of love, but only from its reality.
16 October 2020
Remember The Divine Spirit of God is the True Living Presence within you.
It is your true bliss and freedom.
Your divine nature cannot awaken through the narrow ideas of self-interests and judgments.
Deep within is the perfection of Light, ready to radiate through you, as you choose to surrender all beliefs of fearful self-protection.
Remember, God is only Love and so are you.
15 October 2020

Accept the function that God has given you to remember Love.
Walk with God, and listen to His offering of limitless Love.
14 October 2020
Remember, the Truth of Love has no limits.
Every moment that is truly given to gratitude, kindness, honesty, and humility will become the blessings that you count on through every situation.

Allow your heart to deeply feel the truth of this declaration.
Declare also that you choose the Joy of Love instead of pain.
You are the holy child of God.
Gratefully accept that Love will correct all errors in your mind.
Today, step back and let God lead as you rest in Love.
12 October 2020
Remember, you were created from the Light of God’s Grandeur.
Your true essence is the pure consciousness of Divine Love.

Only Love is real.

God’s Will for you is happiness.
You are the creation of Eternal Love.
Accept your inheritance and rejoice that only Love is real.
9 October 2020
Accept today, that Peace of mind and heart is clearly an internal matter.
It is only through your peace of mind that a peaceful perception of the world arises.
Remember you are mistaken when you think your true Self can be hurt in any way.
You are the light of God, and in your defenselessness your safety lies, waiting to be embraced.
Happily choose to accept that only Love is real.
8 October 2020
Remember, when you enter into quiet communion through the deep sincerity of prayer, all fearful thoughts can fall away and all sensory distractions can vanish.
Remember your divine spirit cannot remain confined within the self-made boundaries of doubt and confusion.
It is guaranteed that every beloved will remember!
Be willing to surrender all made-up beliefs and rest in God’s Grace.
7 October 2020
Remember that nothing but your own thoughts can affect you.
If judgment and opinions fill your mind and heart you will perceive a fearful world.
There is nothing outside you.
Choose today to look on all beloveds and all situations with love, appreciation and open-mindedness.
The Light of God’s Peace is shining in you Now.
You will not find it outside, only within the love of your heart.

Let your weary heart and mind be free of the chaos and conflict of agreements that the ego promotes.
In all the worldly situations you gave your attention to, it was really God you were searching for.
Rejoice that now you can gratefully move toward your Infinite Home of Love.
Invite the magnet of Love to lead you into the ever present comfort of peace and harmony, and sing your heart’s song that only Love is real.
2 October 2020
Remember, pause and be still throughout the day and gratefully release your mind from the chains of opinions that hold you hostage to resentment and fear.
The healing antidote for all perceived disturbances is your willingness to hold all creation in shining innocence.
Listen in quiet peace to the voice of every creature, every galaxy, singing the praises of Eternal Love.
Humbly answer yes to Love and rest in God.
