Only You, Holy Spirit

I stand in Your Presence, Holy Spirit, and I see only You, and I hear only You, and I know only You, and I praise only You.

I recognize that all that seemed bad and wrong was only believed as such. That belief is made from a belief in myself that was never true. I thought I was separate from You, but in my return to You, I see that I was wrong. As a consequence of making the unreal world of separation real, I brought forth false witnesses with whom I joined in special-love-hate relationship to maintain the hidden fear that I am alone and separate without them, and the guilt I sensed from believing I could betray them. It felt like unending separation. Now, as I reunite with You, I see that only the Truth is true, and naught else is true. Now, as I look upon them from the Loving Gaze I share with You, and You alone, I can see where the unreal split-mind had called them forth to reinforce the fearful belief in a world where both love & fear exist together, and where I fearfully believed that I, alone, had to protect what was true (my separate self) from a real threat (the separate world).
Separation from You is not real. Not true. Only a relationship with You is true. I see that now. By believing my True Protector left me, I forgot that I left You. I then believed in the unreal and feared it. I hid myself within my separate self and joined with those false witnesses and worshipped them in idolatry, forcing myself to join in their world that appeared real because I was guilty of hiding attack. I had no true solace. No true refuge. I believed that injustice and betrayal were real, and that my duty was to hold “justice” against all who beared false witness against me. This false belief is the real cause of the painful feelings of separation I felt within me.
But I now turn away from an unreal world where I believe justice must be served against the unjust, where I must seek justice in an unjust world; not as a testimony to stand against something “real”, but as a testimony to stand with what “IS” already and forever real; in relationship with Your Loving Justice.
And because of my love for You and only You, I look to bring forth the Love that You are and that You created, so that I may create and extend and BE that Love too.
I bear witness, O my God, the true witnesses You are bringing forth as an inevitable effect of the choice to choose only You, and nothing but You, to choose Truth Alone, in Love; a Holy Relationship created in Heaven.
I am in Joy to be with You. I am in Peace to be with You. I now share the Love of Our Loving Relationship I share with You, in Your Real World. For the unreal world has passed away; a world that never existed at all, but in a nightmare of separation that I allowed myself to dream. It was the cost I paid for believing both truth and untruth could exist together in one world, in separation from each other. The Truth of Your Love is all that is true. The truth is Your Love for your Special Creation. We are One.
Awakened, I stand as Your Innocent One, the One You created from Your Love, your loving creation, your loving & true witness. I ask to see only through Your Loving Eye, to hear only through Your Loving Ear, to continue to turn my back on the ungodly words in an ungodly world; the unreal world; and on all which was never true, and will never be true, and is not true now. Thank you. In Your Holy Name and Holy Reality, It is done. It is done. It is done.

” O SON OF DUST!

Blind thine double-visioned eyes, that thou mayest behold My Beauty; stop thine deceiving ears, that thou mayest hearken unto the sweet melody of My Voice; empty thyself of all learning that was never real, that thou mayest partake of My Self-knowledge that is real; and sanctify thyself from the false world where both true & false exist together, in separation; where both wealth & poverty exist together, in separation; that thou mayest obtain a lasting share from the Ocean of My Eternal Wealth; in clear knowing that only the Truth is true, and nothing else is true.
Blind thine eyes of double-vision, that is, to all save My beauty; stop thine double-minded ears to all save My Holy word of Singularity; empty thyself of all “other” learning save the Self-knowledge of Me; that with a clear vision, a pure heart and attentive ear, that thou sharest with Me alone, thou mayest enter the Court of My holiness.”
