What you do comes from what you think.
You do not need guidance except at the mind level.
Correction belongs only at the level where creation is possible.
God cannot ask more than you will.
The strength to do comes from your own undivided will to do.
There is no strain in doing God’s Will as soon as you recognize that it is also your own.
27 February 2021
Today, raise your heart and mind to the Truth of Divine Creation.
Consciously choose to surrender into the Power of God, all the rules you made in fear.
Nothing outside your mind is the cause of fear and nothing affects you but your own thoughts and beliefs.
Come home to the Light of Holy Union, no longer seduced by the made up lies of prestige, pride, or proving.
Thank God 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.

While unconscious tendencies dominate your mind, you cannot freely choose.
The choices you make in your life will follow a repeating pattern, even though situations and circumstances change.
Yet the outcome will be the same.
To bring about meaningful change, you must learn to know your own mind, not superficially but deeply.
You must become aware of your mind in action, for it is always active.
Its activity either multiplies and strengthens illusion, or moves you in the direction of Truth.
To reinforce Truth in your mind, you must follow the guidance you receive from the Holy Spirit, for He alone knows Truth.
24 February 2021
The thoughts that arise in your awareness come from one of two sources: the Holy Spirit or the ego.
There are no sources but these two for everything that appears in your mind.
Which you choose to follow is up to you, but you must develop the presence of mind and the understanding necessary to make conscious choices consistently.
Until then you will vacillate between the two, as unconscious habitual tendencies will assert themselves again and again.
23 February 2021
Your function in this lifetime is to forgive by surrendering the errors of your ego mind to the Holy Spirit within you for healing.
The Christ Mind teaches that you are a Beloved Child of God and therefore your healing is guaranteed by God.
When you feel seemingly lost in the lonely journey of the mind of separateness from love, remember your soul is God’s Love and always with you.
Your soul knows God completely and your healing is guaranteed by God.

The alertness of the ego to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance the Holy Spirit would have you maintain.
To the ego, it is kind and right and good to point out errors and “correct” them.
This makes perfect sense to the ego, which is totally unaware of what errors are and what correction is.
Errors are of the ego, and correction of errors of any kind lies solely in the relinquishment of the ego.
If you point out the errors of your brother’s ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the Holy Spirit does not perceive his errors.
When you correct a brother, you are telling him that he is wrong.
But your task is still to tell him he is right.
You do not tell him this verbally if he is speaking foolishly because he needs correction at another level.
He is still right because he is a Child of God.
21 February 2021
Today, simply follow in stillness, as you humbly surrender all thoughts of what you think you know.
Remember, in the inner stillness you will humbly hear the Guidance of Love.
By choice, you are leaving behind all concepts, strategies, self made plans, assumptions, past grievances, worries and the insane resistance to the healing Power of Love.
Gratefully rise up from your personal dreams of distortion and accept God’s Grace in quiet reverie.
One Heart eternally.
20 February 2021
Today, remember that mistaken thoughts and beliefs will distort, constrict and confuse your mind and cause you to forget who and what you really are…
The innocent child of God.
Judgment, opinions, doubt and all grievances are made as a weapon against the Reality of Love.
Putting your faith in the Truth of God is the way out of the nightmare of the mistaken identity.
Lift up your eyes and heart in gratitude that the Love of God is your strength.
Only Love is real.

Freudvoll und leidvoll,
gedankenvoll
sein;
Langen und bangen
in schwebender Pein,
himmelhoch jauchzend
zu Tode betrübt.
Glücklich allein ist die Seele,
sie Liebt.
Joyful and sorrowful,
thoughtful
being;
Longing and worrying
in freefloating pain,
yahooing skyhigh
despairing to death.
Happy alone is the Soul,
she Loves.

The Bible says that you should go with a brother twice as far as he asks.
It certainly does not suggest that you set him back on his journey.
Devotion to a brother cannot set you back either.
It can lead only to mutual progress.
The result of genuine devotion is inspiration, a word which properly understood is the opposite of fatigue.
To be fatigued is to be dis-spirited, but to be inspired is to be in the spirit.
To be egocentric is to be dispirited, but to be Self-centered in the right sense is to be inspired, or in the Soul.
The truly inspired are enlightened and cannot abide in darkness.

All symptoms of hurt need true helpfulness, and whenever they are met with this, the mind that so meets them heals itself.
Rehabilitation is an attitude of praising God as He Himself knows praise.
He offers praise to you, and you must offer it to others.
God is praised whenever any mind learns to be wholly helpful.
16 February 2021
Every mind which is split needs rehabilitation.
You can do much on behalf of your own rehabilitation and that of others if in a situation calling for healing you think of it this way:
I am here only to be truly helpful.
I am here to represent Christ, Who sent me.
I do not have to worry about what to say or what to do,
because He Who sent me will direct me.
I am content to be wherever He wishes,
knowing He goes there with me.
I will be healed as I let Him teach me to heal.

Today, humbly accept that the beauty of the universe radiates within your sacred heart of Love.
It is not up to you to judge or change anyone, but to be willing to accept their true innocence and hear their call for Love.
When you honor and treat all beloveds with compassion and kindness, your willing spirit radiates God’s message into the world.
The veil of illusion fades as you offer your heart to all beloveds, affirming that only Eternal Love is real.

To you who still believe you live in time and know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit still guides you through the infinitely small and senseless maze you still perceive in time, though it has long since gone.
You think you live in what is past.
Each thing you look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago before its unreality gave way to truth.
Yet in each unforgiving act or thought, in every judgment, and in all belief in sin, is that one instant still called back, as if it could be made again in time.
You keep an ancient memory before your eyes.
And he who lives in memories alone is unaware of where he is.
Forgiveness is the great release from time.
It is the key to learning that the past is over.
There is no other teacher and no other way.
13 February 2021
All learning is a help or hindrance to the gate of Heaven.
Nothing in between is possible.
There are two teachers only, who point in different ways.
And you will go along the way your chosen teacher leads.
There are but two directions you can take while time remains and choice is meaningful.
For never will another road be made except the way to Heaven.
You but choose whether to go toward Heaven or away to nowhere.
There is nothing else to choose.
12 February 2021
Forgiveness is the great release from time.
It is the key to learning that the past is over.
Madness speaks no more.
There is no other teacher and no other way.
For what has been undone no longer is.
Forgive the past and let it go, for it is gone.
You have gone on and reached the world that lies at Heaven’s gate.
Look gently on each other and behold the world in which perception of your hate has been transformed into a world of love.
There is no hindrance to the Will of God.
11 February 2021
Today, as you walk in the world, question your inner purpose and inner intention.
With every situation, surrender your thoughts and ask what it is you truly want.
Ask humbly would you rather be happy or “right“ about what you think you know?
Honestly question every value that you hold.
In every situation, ask if you are at peace or if you are relying on made up thoughts of judgment and personal opinions.
Consciously choose peace all day and simply, gratefully, rest in Love.

Nothing can reach the Soul from the ego, and nothing from the Soul can strengthen the ego or reduce the conflict within it.
The separate self and God’s Self are in opposition.
They are opposed in creation, in will, and in outcome.
They are fundamentally irreconcilable because the Soul cannot perceive and the ego cannot know.
They are therefore not in communication and can never be in communication.
The Soul need not be taught, but the ego must.
The ultimate reason why learning is perceived as frightening is because learning does lead to the relinquishment (not destruction) of the ego to the light of the Soul.
9 February 2021
Your Soul is the Light of the world.
Light is an aspect of Creation, for It is of the Mind, being Its creative energy.
Its function is to continually extend Itself, thereby extending Creation.
Light is limitless and always active in Creation.
Light is in your Mind and is a part of your Mind.
In the mind of separation, the belief in guilt and the grievances that are expression of guilt, hide the Light of your Mind and make it inaccessible to your awareness.
Forgiveness is required to heal the sense of guilt and all grievances.
This frees the Mind, allowing Its Light to shine brightly again, dispelling the darkness of the world and offering a blessing to all.
Your function is to shine as the Light of the world, that all may see the Light and thereby be shown the way.

A guide does not control, but he does direct, leaving the following up to you.
“Lead us not into temptation” means “guide us out of our own errors.”
“Take up thy cross and follow me” means, “Recognize your errors and choose to abandon them by following my guidance.”
Remember that error cannot really threaten truth, which can always withstand it.
Only the error is really vulnerable.
You are free to establish your kingdom where you see fit, but the right choice is inevitable if you remember this:
The Soul is in a state of grace forever.
Your reality is only your Soul.
Therefore, you are in a state of grace forever.
Atonement undoes all errors in this respect and thus uproots the real source of fear.
7 February 2021
The Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God Himself is there.
Yet this is not a memory of past events, but only of a present state.
You are so long accustomed to believe that memory holds only what is past that it is hard for you to realize it is a skill that can remember now.
There is no link of memory to the past.
If you would have it there, then there it is.
But only your desire made the link, and only you have held it to a part of time where guilt appears to linger still.
The Holy Spirit’s use of memory is quite apart from time.
He does not seek to use it as a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go.
6 February 2021
To heal is to make happy.
Today, resist the temptation to believe that you know what your day will bring for your learning.
Moment to moment you choose Unconditional Love or fear, and whether you accept Truth or illusion.
Sink into the unknown unfolding and rejoice that each moment is the blessing of discovery!
Open your heart and mind to the Holy direction of Divine Spirit, listening with humility and devotion to the Brilliance of God’s Light.
Rest in gratitude for the awareness that only unconditional Love is real.
5 February 2021
To heal is to make happy.
The light that belongs to you is the light of joy.
Radiance is not associated with sorrow.
Depression is often contagious but, although it may affect those who come in contact with it, they do not yield to the influence whole-heartedly.
But joy calls forth an integrated willingness to share in it and thus promotes the mind’s natural impulse to respond as one.
To be whole-hearted, you must be happy.
If fear and love cannot coexist and if it is impossible to be wholly fearful and remain alive, then the only possible whole state is that of love.
There is no difference between love and joy.
Therefore, the only possible whole state is the wholly joyous.
4 February 2021
Remember, when the mind is calm by choosing Peace and Harmony, you also are resting in the Truth of God’s Grace.
Gratefully surrender all fears and grievances into the Light of God’s healing Power.
Remember the Divine Power of Love has no limitation.
Your intention to be the Light and serve beloveds is the key that unlocks the door to the Heaven of Love.
Thank God only Love is real.
3 February 2021
Is healing frightening?
To many, yes.
For accusation is a bar to love, and damaged bodies are accusers.
The unhealed cannot pardon.
They cannot forgive their brothers and themselves as well.
Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a healing to your brother and yourself.
Let yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to your brother and yourself.
2 February 2021
It is not will for life, but wish for death that is the motivation for this world.
Its only purpose is to prove guilt real.
No worldly thought or act or feeling has a motivation other than this one.
Your function is to show your brother sin can have no cause.
How futile must it be to see yourself a picture of the proof that what your function is can never be!
The Holy Spirit’s picture changes not the body into something it is not.
It only takes away from it all signs of accusation and of blamefulness.
Into this empty space, from which the goal of sin has been removed, is Heaven free to be remembered.
1 February 2021
Correction is not your function.
It belongs to One Who knows of fairness, not of guilt.
If you assume correction’s role, you lose the function of forgiveness.
No one can forgive until he learns correction is but to forgive and never to accuse.
Correction must be left to One Who knows correction and forgiveness are the same.
