7. What Is The Holy Spirit?

Lesson 285

My Holiness Shines Bright And Clear Today.

Today I wake with joy, expecting buy the happy things of God to come to me. I ask but them to come, and realize my invitation will be answered by the thoughts to which they have been sent me. And I will ask for only joyous things the instant I accept my holiness.^97. For what would be the use of pain to me, what purpose would my suffering fulfill, and how would grief and loss avail me, if insanity departs me today, and I accept my holiness instead?

2. Father, my holiness is Yours. Let me rejoice in it, and through forgiveness be restored to sanity. Your Son is still as You created him. My holiness is part of me and also part of You. And what can alter Holiness Itself?^[1].

Footnote 97. The sequence here seems to be that when I accept my holiness, I will ask for only the happy things of God to come to me, and then I will wake in the morning expecting a day filled with only them. By implication, then, when I awaken expecting a day filled with unhappy things, it is because I have asked for them to come to me as punishment for my unholiness.

Personal Notes:

My holiness shines bright and clear today. I meditate on above prayer today, and in quiet I wait to hear my Father’s Voice. I pray for all my brothers and myself for continued guidance, wisdom, discernment, protection, and illumination, of The Way, The Truth, The Life, in Christ Jesus, Amen. Thank you for sharing with me. Walk in Love my friend!
