You will learn with time to be more comfortable in knowing, not guessing or perceiving, that the body is merely a temporary structure projected by the separated mind, but is used as a communication device by the Holy Spirit.

When the body's interpretation is left to the Holy Spirit--your Highest Consciousness while in this world, rather than the ego-based mind, you will understand health as the natural state of everything that is real. You will understand sickness as illusion.

A Course in Miracles states, "Say to the Holy Spirit only, 'Decide for me,' and it is done."

To master your own spiritual freedom you must discover that what stands beyond these dreams is your real and natural self, which requires your whole mind to join with other minds; this is how peace is obtained. The willingness for peace is genuine here.

You must have genuine interpretations, too.

Mastery

While you are here in a body, the ego will be with you, but you will have the power to render it a follower, manifesting only in unreal fussing, rather than what truly leads you. The ego's nonexistence can never truly match the Truth in you. The Holy Spirit--your divine natural guidance system, will not allow it, because you will have His shared inspiration.

What we think we understand about confidence building and where it really comes from may surprise you. When the acim authors  is a part of you that is not real is obscuring the true light of your real power, often we may believe our confidence is bright.

This can be terribly frustrating. With Light comes clarity and peace. I invite you to use this book as a stepping stone onto that bridge from perception to knowledge, to cross over to the realization of your spiritual freedom the realm where we do not allow the world's illusions to become our illusions.

As you proceed through this article you will glimpse confidence and build from there, knowing that your success in putting out darkness in your life grows by putting the ego--the fearful, doubtful, and judgmental area of your psyche, behind you, and is guaranteed by God.

In this alone you will inspire joy in others and may not even realize you are doing so.

The idol is nothing more than a dream or a wish, made only to seem tangible, given form, and only perceived to be real. You're going to realize why you will never be content with such illusion, and the real truth in why you must be careful what you wish for.

By sharing your interpretations with the Holy Spirit abiding in your right-mind, you sort out the false within you; and thus spiritual freedom is realized. When you offer Him what you do not want and leaves you with what you do want.

Let's face it, we've all been weak at times, uncertain of our purpose, and unsure of what we wish for, where to look for it, and where to turn for help in our attempts.

To confidence developing fully and mastery accomplished.
