Please read and contemplate the following commentary in the same way that you read and contemplate the Thought of Awakening. The commentaries are designed to enrich your understanding of the Thoughts of Awakening.
~Commentary on Fear~
You fear the idea of surrender, because you see it as unknown. You see surrender as unknown, because you see it as a place without you.
Know that nothing could be further from the truth.
The mind that tells stories is not you, although it has captured your attention. The spirit that is calm is your truth, although you are afraid of looking there.
Go within the calm. Take time to recognize your Self there. Then when you return to the stories, they will have less meaning for you, because you will know you have been to the place of calm, and you were at home there.

Thoughts of Awakening # 155
The Heart of one,
the Voice of one,
and the Voice for God
are all the same.
This is your lord
when you want to move
only for the cause of love.
There are two ways of looking at things
and two ways of hearing.
One is from the perspective of “me,”
apart from them
with interest in
the “me.”
The other is from the perspective of whole,
a body of one,
which is a totality of Self.
In this, there is no “me.”
~From our Holy Spirit
