To realize the happiness that is you,
you must be restored to Truth.
This can happen only through the relinquishment of judgement
and the practice of forgiveness.
The world you see rests on judgement;
through the act of judging,
you maintain the world in your mind.
30 October 2021
Forgiveness leads to happiness, nowhere else will you find it.
Happiness does not depend on the changing conditions and circumstances of this world;
it is not a result of goals attained
or pleasures or stimulations or honors or recognition that the world bestows.
Happiness is what you are in truth;
it is your nature to be happy, to be happy for no reason.
29 October 2021
Today, invite the Truth of Eternal Love to be your guide,
as you relinquish your personal attachments to having answers and being right.
Today, when you think you know, and your mouth opens to make your opinions,
pause and ask “Do I want to be right, or happy?”
Humbly Surrender all your old ideas of defense
as you accept that your defenselessness is safety, peace and joy.
Humbly and happily accept that only Love is real!

All the Power of God is contained within the desire for salvation.
This desire, this inspiration to return to your Father,
is the gift of the Holy Spirit,
Who has been holding it for you since time began.
He joyfully offers it to you when you are ready,
and through your acceptance is salvation assured.
27 October 2021
Salvation is the freeing of your mind
from the effects of its errors of thought,
the correction of all false ideas and beliefs
and the subsequent transformation of experience.
Salvation is the process of spiritual awakening.
Its purpose is accomplished through the healing of the mind.

Whenever is the time,
and wherever you are is the place to find Truth.
Truth is not somewhere else far away,
a something that must be diligently sought.
It is closer to you than your own heartbeat.
There is no distance that separates you from the Truth
at this very moment.
25 October 2021
The awakening to Truth
is the disappearance of the ego, the sense of a separate self.
A self that is separate from the world and everything in it,
seemingly complete in itself,
is in fact the denial of the Self created by God,
and a very effective defense against it.
24 October 2021
All the seeming problems of the world you see before you simply mask
the one and only problem you have: separation from God.
All others are but different forms of this one problem.
You have been learning to look past form that you may see content.
Be willing to have the Holy Spirit show you the content behind the form
every time you must make a choice.
Only then can you be sure of choosing rightly.
23 October 2021
God is all in all. There is nothing outside of God;
all that exists has its Being and Life in Him.
What is unlike God,
what contradicts or opposes Him, does not exist in fact,
for He is the only Source and all that He created shares His qualities.
Anything created by God cannot change itself into something else.
Its being is in God, remains in God, and is unalterable in Truth.
22 October 2021
The journey back to Truth is marked by a growing sense of commitment,
a constantly strengthening intent to realize Truth,
to return to your Father, that becomes your single purpose.
As investment is withdrawn from the ego, from bodily identification,
the mind is progressively freed of habitual tendencies, of the past,
and allowed to return to its true nature as freedom and presence here and now.
21 October 2021
As ego, you are never really in the present except as the resistance to it.
The mind misidentified as a body, a separate entity in time and space,
is the denial of the Self, of Truth.
As the Self is always and only in the present,
the resistance to being truly present,
a fundamental characteristic of the ego,
is also an effective defense against the Truth.
20 October 2021
Today choose to open your heart and mind to the guidance of Divine Spirit.
Sink into peace and harmony and rejoice that you are under no Laws but God’s.
Resist the temptation to believe that you “know“ what and how this day will unfold for your learning.
Moment to moment you choose Love or fear, Truth or illusion.
Listen with devotion to the healing Truth of Love
and rest in the unconditional Love of God’s Grace.
19 October 2021
Today turn away from all attempts to prove your judgments are valid.
Gladly forget every idea of good and bad or right and wrong
that you have cherished in your attempt to be safe from the illusion of danger.
The ego continuously wraps bitterness, righteousness, jealousy and fear
into your beliefs of right and wrong as you unwittingly imprison your wondrous spirit
with made up lies and distortions.
Come rest in the schoolroom of Love and accept that only Eternal Love is real.

When you see the Light in your brother,
the world you experience will change.
To see It in another, is to recognize your brother as he truly is.
This will change the way you see yourself and the world,
and nothing will be the same.
17 October 2021
The mind of forgiveness judges not,
leaving all judgement to the Holy Spirit.
To judge is to condemn;
you cannot condemn a brother and not share in that condemnation.
Forgiveness replaces all condemnation with a miracle of Love.
To forgive is to recognize the Truth in your brother,
and overlook all appearances.
16 October 2021
Forgiveness is the key to happiness; this cannot be overstated.
Every human being desires happiness, seeks happiness above all else.
If you would be happy in this world, you must be forgiving.
Forgiveness is an expression of Love,
and without Love is happiness impossible.
15 October 2021
If you would know Love, you must first learn what It is not,
and learn to recognize Its absence.
While you believe in the world’s version of love
and seek to find it in forms based on its denial,
you will drive Love from your mind and make Its return impossible.
14 October 2021
To listen to the Holy Spirit is to listen to the Voice for God.
He speaks for God, knowing God’s Will for you,
and He perceives through your mind.
He is aware of what you see and experience, and knows it is not true.
He translates what is true into a form you can recognize in this world,
leading you away from illusions, back to what is true.
13 October 2021
You are Light, just as you are Mind, and Self or Soul.
Nothing can ever lessen this Light,
for It is the Light of God shining eternally in His Mind.
It is unchanged even as It continues to extend Itself forever.
12 October 2021
Through the Light of your Mind, you see the Light in your Brother.
And in that Light is your Oneness made manifest.
In the return to this Light, are you restored to Wholeness,
and separation is healed.
You are Light, just as you are Mind, and Being or Spirit.
11 October 2021
Happiness is not found by valuing what is valueless.
Whenever you choose to follow the egoic thought system,
and base your decisions on the values it represents,
nothingness is what you will get.
Always is this true and it will never change.
10 October 2021
Differences in form, in conditions and circumstances,
seem to present many different roads leading to various destinations.
Each holds out the promise of satisfaction,
of fulfillment, of completion, waiting at the end of the road.
The forms of this world may vary but never will their content differ.
Illusion represents nothingness, no matter how attractive it may appear.
9 October 2021
Illusions vary in form, size, complexity, apparent consequences,
but their content is always the same.
They are not real.
The endless series of journeys undertaken by those hypnotized by the world of appearances,
merely repeat themselves over and over again,
treading the same well-worn path, failing to recognize the road they travel.
8 October 2021
Each and every day you must decide between Truth and illusion.
You are not aware of the need to make this choice,
for the one alternative that can be chosen, has been forgotten.
So long accustomed to choosing between illusions,
which is no choice at all,
you do not realize the only choice that can be made.
7 October 2021
Experience follows belief; it is an extension of it.
What you believe becomes the “reality” of your experience.
What you do not believe vanishes from your world.
Each and every day, every hour of every day,
and each and every moment, you must decide between Truth and illusion.
6 October 2021
Help is needed to prepare the way for the return of Truth.
Your mind has been given to falsity.
The belief in separation has taken the place of Reality,
and all your experience witnesses to and “proves” separation is true.
5 October 2021
Reality still abides deep in your mind,
held for you by God’s Answer to your belief in separation,
the Holy Spirit.
Whenever you so decide,
the memory of what you are will rise to awareness,
and all doubt and confusion will vanish.
4 October 2021
Salvation can be described simply as the healing of fear and the return of Love,
the replacement of guilt with innocence.
Whatever is not Love is fear.
The Holy Spirit helps you face fear and heal it by choosing to let it go,
withdrawing your belief and investment in it,
and inviting Love to take its place.
3 October 2021
To seek happiness is to seek the Self,
but you must not waste time looking for it where it is not.
Happiness, like all of Truth, cannot be found in the things of this world,
for it is not here.
2 October 2021
Happiness arises from within for no reason,
being independent of appearances and conditions that constantly change.
When you realize the Self, awaken to and as the Self,
you find a happiness that is unshakeable, that will never leave you,
for it is forever a part of you.
1 October 2021
To choose the ego as your guide is to decide against happiness,
for it knows nothing of happiness.
The ego is based on fear, having arisen as a fearful response.
To identify with the ego is to continue that dependence on fear,
and though you may seek happiness through various things and activities,
it will elude you for it cannot be found without.
