You can always look through the nothingness that seems to be here to the everythingness that is behind it. Directly behind the comparative or competitive surface of anything is the true power that is already shared. Think of that. No one and nothing lacks the true power of goodness-without-opposite. This shared power is the nature of what shines behind everything. You are fortunate because you have the happy task of allowing it to extend and benefit all.
When Spirit takes charge of form, it uses form in a way that doesn’t deceive you. After all, what is form but symbols? Spirit can use form to communicate with you and all lovingly. When you listen to ego telling you what is wrong with the world, what you need, and what you dislike, you completely ignore this power that is shining behind everything, awaiting the merest invitation to shine forth and show you all the happy truth about you. You will laugh when you truly understand how needless it has been to wait.
Ego uses form to especially bless or condemn separate selves. Ego has no problem with the positive, as long as it can be used to highlight lack in other ones or other places. Spirit uses form to tell the simple, beautiful, and eternal truth about all. Using form as a symbol for truth-telling is only temporary. When you *are* that which Spirit uses form to point to, no more pointing is necessary. You need only remember, accept, and rest in what you are with all. Spirit’s use of symbols can help you in this endeavor. Ego knows nothing about how symbols of form should be used, so you need not consider its commentary on form. Any thoughts you need will be delivered very simply unto you as gifts. You can see the same as happening for all.
There is always some crack in any facade, some entry point for miracles. Even though you still believe and see in accordance with ego thoughts, the defense you have been holding up is not impenetrable. Look with happiness on this fact. No one can block light out completely, which means all have right-now access to what is helpful, despite how anything looks.
Think of a miracle as a gentle inward opening, both releasing and accepting the good. You learn to rest in the quiet of your being, and these tiny pinpricks in the defense you have been holding up open and open, until you can see that you are quite safe in the light. It is nothing you have to hold back or block out.
Rest here in the light with us, and all is well. As you learn to rest consistently in what is helpful, you see that the helpful is both true and eternal, and you have no cause for worry. We thank you for your willingness to remember what is so helpful to all.
