A Gift I Give Myself

There is no greater gift I can give myself than to take the time to open my mind to Holy Spirit’s inspiration. I open my mind to receive by accepting peace. For me this means sitting quietly and setting aside the stream of thoughts about the world that flow through my mind.

Sometimes I am able to quickly quiet my mind. Sometimes I observe that I have grabbed onto one of those thoughts and followed it onto a detour that leads away from peace. As soon as I recognize I’m on the detour, I let it go and return my focus on letting my mind quiet and once again accept peace. I may need to do this several times. But with vigilance, my mind quiets and I relax into deepening peace

The stream of thoughts of the world yields to inspiring thoughts that remind me of what is true. They help me look past the images of the world that seem to confirm that I am separate. I am helped to see the loving essence that is everywhere beyond the images. If a situation or relationship has been disturbing, I am helped to see the call for Love from the other, me or both that the disturbance represents. This time is a time that helps me learn the most important lesson of all: I am not a body. I am free. I am still as God created me.

My practice for today is to relax and follow… Relax and follow… Relax and follow… I see that this takes constant practice… consistent practice… Stepping back and listening to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in the present moment is my one focus for today.
