"It is quite possible to listen to God's Voice all through the day without interrupting your regular activities in any way. The part of your mind in which truth abides is in constant communication with God, whether you are aware of it or not. It is the other part of your mind that functions in the world and obeys the world's laws. It is the part that is constantly distracted, disorganized and highly uncertain."
"The part that is listening to the Voice of God is calm, always at rest and wholly certain. It is really the only part there is. The other part is a wild illusion, frantic, and distraught, but without reality of any kind...." A Course In Miracles.
These two parts of my mind I am very much aware of. I can feel immediately when I slide into the belief in what is uncertain. When I begin building a future in hypotheticals. When I believe I know for certain that which I can't know for certain.
My body feels awful when I am seeing life from the point of view where the truth doesn't exist.
Walking with the truth, is to be hand and hand with the Universe.
I love that you can hear The Voice if you stay with reality.
As my mind files through all the possibilities of various reactions and how I will be seen or judged and critiqued, I find peace when I step away from my small part and see the bigger picture.
Or, when I see the clip from the viewpoint of those seeking their truth and not those wanting to hide from it.
And, in the end, I have to let it all go.
I did my best.
I said my words.
I brought all of me.
The Universe only accepts originals.
Where it goes from here, how others respond, is not mine to control or decide.
I didn't even decide what I would say; the truth decided for me.
What I love, is that the voice of truth is within all, whether they are aware or not, it is there behind the constantly distracted, disorganized and highly uncertain.
My peace comes in the midst of turmoil and uncertainty when I let those thoughts go and find my way back to snuggling with the truth, no matter how unsightly and off colored it is. As odd as it sounds, this is where the Voice of the Universe resides.
Not in the peace or pretty place outside of evil, but right up against it. It is always with reality.
Reality is my God...you can't bless it away, you can't paint it or delete it...it just is.
You will join it when you are aware.
