Study of Text, C 14: XI. The Test of Truth, P 9. 8-15-17

XI. The Test of Truth, P 9
9 Do you think that what the Holy Spirit would have you give, He would withhold from you? You have no problems that He cannot solve by offering you a miracle. Miracles are for you. And every fear or pain or trial you have has been undone. He has brought all of them to light, having accepted them instead of you, and recognized they never were. There are no dark lessons He has not already lightened for you. The lessons you would teach yourself He has corrected already. They do not exist in His Mind at all. For the past binds Him not, and therefore binds not you. He does not see time as you do. And each miracle He offers you corrects your use of time, and makes it His.

Journal
This paragraph brought tears to my eyes. All my problems have been solved. I know. There is a lesson that talks about that, and yes, I have done the lesson (Lesson 80). But somehow, this morning I just get it. This is the function God gave the Holy Spirit. He has already solved all problems for us. Now we only need to accept His solution, which is a miracle. “Miracles are for you”, Jesus says. Thank you, God.

He goes on to say that every fear or pain or trial we have ever had has been undone. He did this by recognizing that they never were. All my dark lessons have been brought to the light. This made me stop and think about some of them. My most stubborn expression of fear is my fear of heights. I often wonder if I will ever be able to give up that fear. And yet, it has already been done. The Holy Spirit did it for me. I exist without that fear. When will I accept His gift? When will I accept the self that exists without the fear of heights? I don’t know. When I do, I suppose.

Jesus tells us this about the Holy Spirit. He says that our errors do not exist in His Mind at all, which means that they do not exist in my mind. Right now, right in this moment, I exist in a state of complete innocence. I can accept that self if I want to. The past does not bind the Holy Spirit. He knows me without a past in which I seem to have sinned.

Because it does not bind Him, it does not bind me either. I can know myself as one who has never erred. I don’t have to wait for any of this. It is done. I have a hard time understanding how this could be because I see time differently than the Holy Spirit. It feels linear to me, and to Him, it doesn’t exist at all. Through the miracles, He offers me He is correcting my use of time. I am learning to use time for miracles and rather than to extend the illusion so that I can see that there is no time.
