A Prayer

My love for all is a greater love than just for one person or thing
My love expands to the entire universe
Encompassing everything
It is personal and impersonal
It is free – freely given and freely received
My love for all is greater than I can imagine
I love and I am truly loved
Amen

Entering into Oneness

Oneness is achieved not from a longing for it but from a knowing that it can be.
Oneness is all there is. There is no more than that.
Know that you can achieve that sense of Oneness with all just by turning your attention to it and away from the worldliness around you.
In your everyday life you can bring that sense of Oneness with all by preparing yourself beforehand.
Meditating at the beginning of the day to set yourself off on the right foot is the best way to begin.
Meditate on Oneness, on the unity of all things in this world and others.
Feel within yourself the expansion of all within you and all the possibilities you hold.
Feel and relax yourself.
Accept all thoughts that come to mind and release them. Go through them and allow them to pass through you.
Focus instead on the Oneness of all. When thoughts distract you return to your breath and the sense of Oneness.
Do not feel you need a mantra, a focus of attention. Accept all thoughts that come to you but treat them equally.
Become quiet, very still.
And then allow your mind and soul to enter another place, another dimension.
Allow yourself to be transported to a place with no time, no sight, a blank black space where you sit and can receive.
If you wish to ask a question you may. Or ask to be prompted by the Divine for guidance. Or ask for what is your purpose for the day.
Breathe quietly and listen within.
It will be given to you. Always and with great love.
The answers are always there within you.
You must tune to the frequency in which to receive.
You must know in your heart that you are open and that you can do this at all times.
When you start your day in this way you will be set for the entire day no matter what comes.
You will be ready for all that comes your way and you will receive much guidance and loving kindness from your innermost being.
As the day goes on, remember that feeling of sitting alone and bring yourself back to it throughout the day even if you are very busy. This way you imprint upon yourself a way to be at all times, a way to allow one thought to follow the other but to treat them all equally. For they are nothing but thoughts and they are random, even if you later try to make logical sense of them. These are not the thoughts to listen to. The other thoughts, the ones which are true, come from within, not from the mind you know, the mind you are familiar with.
The thoughts that are true come from a deeper place within you which you can access at any time but it takes practice to allow them to come to the fore.
Go within at all times and be refreshed. Be renewed. Be at peace. Be at One with all.

A Prayer

Let me sit in stillness
The silence surrounds
Darkness is outside
Inside is illumined
Joy and allowing
Love and peace
Let my heart and mind
Abide here as one.

ACIM today's lesson

God's peace and joy are mine.

The Meaning of Love

The Meaning of Love
Love is a universal expression but we are not talking of the love people have for each other, the cloying possessive worried love or the ecstatic individual exclusive love. Rather love for all is what we would like to speak about today.
Love for all is impersonal. Love for all takes you out of this world and its problems, the negative feelings in your mind, and brings you into communion with God and with all that exists. This love is truly all that there is but it is not just a feeling. It is a state of being. It is a state of being in the moment and being with universal consciousness. It is a state of knowing and observing. It is a state of treating all as equals and seeing the God that is in them at all times.
This universal love takes you into your self and out of it at the same time. It taps into both the little you and the larger picture.
Love like this is endless and infinite.
It is the love of God. The love God has for you. And everyone else. This love is comforting. This love is wise. This love is the thought in the mind of God that made you and everything else. This love extends itself out infinitely and never ends, always expanding and moving, exponentially into infinity.
This is the love you seek to feel for everyone and everything if you want true peace and understanding.
This love has been misunderstood because it is impartial. This love is for the tsunami as well as the victims, it is for nuclear power and for those who perish because of it. This love is impersonal. This is the love that made the world and continues to create. This is where creation originates and nowhere else. This love is not only ethereal, it is practical. This love for all is the love that is within your heart. Open to it and see the difference it makes in the way you perceive what surrounds you.

Thoughts on Happiness

Know that happiness is yours within your mind. It is a matter of a way of thinking and being. Monitor your thoughts for signs of fear or unhappiness. Acknowledge those thoughts and turn toward peace and happiness. This is different from expectation. This is the truth you seek, the true peace of God and the gift that is yours.

About Thought

Give up all thoughts of expectation and fear today and turn them over to God. Why do you think one thought is more important than any other thought? There is no difference between thoughts. Do not linger over them, cherish them, give them larger meaning than any other thought.

How to make a decision

Let everything be as it is and do not push against any resistance. The path for you is straight but not narrow so there are many trails you might take all to reach the same goal: the goal of awareness of the unity of everything. That is truly your goal. There is no need to go anywhere but within to achieve this and as you see more and more clearly, you will be able to move easily and quickly in the direction you want to go. Let yourself be gently led and know in you heart that any decision you make is for the greater good of all.
