David's Prayer (10:10-16:38): "So we continue on today with a beautiful section from the text, showing us the difference between imprisonment and freedom, taking us with the Holy Spirit in the direction of the Atonement, learning with the Holy Spirit to remove the obstacles to the remembrance of God, telling the difference between the two teachers in the mind: the Holy Spirit, who teaches to free the mind; and the ego, a belief that there is a substitute for God, that teaches a curriculum of fear and doubt and confusion. There is no reason to follow the ego anymore. Nothing the ego teaches makes any sense at all. Today I turn to the Holy Spirit and let the Holy Spirit direct ALL my decisions, every single decision. I remember that learning is joyful if it leads me along my natural path and facilitates the development of what I AM and what I have ALWAYS had. I cannot go against my natural desire to awaken. I will find NO value in the ego, in its defenses and its distractions. My will is free because God's Will is free and I share God's Will… I was created by God. My happiness, my will, my joy, are all the same. And by following the Voice for God, the Holy Spirit's lesson, I remember who I am, who I have always been - an eternal being, spirit. So today we follow up that the Holy Spirit KNOWS the difference between pain and joy. The Holy Spirit knows the difference between imprisonment and freedom. I NEED the Holy Spirit for this distinction. A human being cannot make this distinction, for the mask was made to cover over the answer. The Holy Spirit IS the answer. The Holy Spirit's teaching takes only one direction and has only one Goal. His direction is freedom and His Goal is God. The Will of God is without limit. All power and glory lie within it. It is boundless in strength and in love and in peace. It has no boundaries because It created all things. By creating all things It made them part of Itself. This unified experience, this perfect love, this oneness, is God's Kingdom, the Kingdom of heaven. Awakening runs easily and gladly through the Kingdom, in answer to the Call for God. This is the natural response of every son of God to the Voice for his Creator, because it is the Voice for his creations and his own extension. Today we practice with our review lessons - the ideas that flow through our mind throughout the day. And in deep prayer we are honored by each idea that sets us free of the ego and the ego's world of linear time. We sink deeper and deeper inward as we review these ideas once again in our mind in gratitude: 'I am not the victim of the world I see.' 'I have invented the world I see.' 'There is another way of looking at the world.' 'I could see peace instead of this.' 'My mind is part of God's. I am very holy.' Amen."
