Distinctions:
there's little distinctions I pick up now, decades of study behind me, and these make all the difference in my practice, having truly brought me to a greater understanding. For years I have stated that the Holy Spirit is the voice of God, a lovely thought indeed, and yet a distinction erroneously made on my part, being a reflection of my own state of mind at the time. What's said in Chapter 5 of A Course in Miracles is that the Holy Spirit is the voice for God, and this is a key difference for me now. It's amazing to consider how a slightly different wording could cause such a shift of mind. The voice of God invokes a powerful presence that speaks from a distance, almost impersonal in its tone, and is asking for obedience. This distinction kept me a bit farther away from God, creating a seance of having to reach for a clearer message.
but read correctly, using the proper wording...
and everything is different.
what I'm told is that the Holy Spirit is the Voice for God and it's presence is within me, an ever present whisper that urges me to pause and listen closely to its message.
the difference is intimacy.
and as the Holy Spirit is within my mind, not only am I tasked to listen, mindfully so, being very careful with my choice to turn from ego to a softer presence - I'm to allow this voice to speak through me, a gentle force of love that's then extended to the world.
it's a clear distinction,
and I'm ready for it now.
