Some of the most beautiful as well as insightful words of A Course in Miracles are the following affirmation of personal power:
“I am responsible for what I see.
I choose the feeling I experience, and I decide
upon the goal I would achieve.
And everything that seems to happen to me
I ask for, and receive as I have asked.” (T-21.II.2:3-5)
Surely, on the surface of it, we would not choose the many bad things that do happen. So, if these words are true, there must be another something going on.
I believe that there is. Until we join our will to God’s, we are destined to miscreate. Until we heed the Holy Spirit, we can only miscreate. The Course asserts that always we get advice on how to live, and that there are only two choices from which this advice comes: the insane ego or the blessing that is the Holy Spirit. Listening to insanity can only bring miscreation.
Nice blog. I agree with you insanity breeds unhappiness. All you need is to have confidence on yourself and listen to your soul.
“I believe that there is. Until we join our will to God’s, we are destined to miscreate.” So true… I agree with this (though I don’t consider myself to be religious). If I could remember it more, life would be aglow and with the flow
