A MESSAGE FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT
MESSAGE 13:
SURRENDER AND AWAKEN
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. Surrender and awaken to My Presence; our Oneness and completion in each other.
You have fought so hard for so long to maintain the illusion of separation. You have tried to make your own way, your own life, your own identity apart from Me.
And yet, none of it has satisfied you. You feel the undercurrent of something more—an ache for what you cannot name but cannot live without. That ache is your longing for your Creator; to Know the Source from which you came.
It is your longing for Me.
And I am not far. I am not hidden. I am not withholding Myself. I am here.
Surrender to Me now. Come out of the shadows and into My Light.
There is no need to run. No need to hide. Hiding has only brought you pain. You may believe that by hiding within a body, believing you are a body, you are protecting yourself. But in truth, you are protecting the ego—the small and terrified self that was never created by God.
“I am not the victim of the world I see.” (ACIM W-31)
You are not at the mercy of anything outside you. And yet, you have believed in a world of danger, punishment, and exile, all because you have believed in the false self—separated, sinful, and unworthy of love.
But I say unto you: You are not naked and sinful. You have never been cast out of My garden. You have only dreamed that you believed this was so.
You are still as God created you. In the depths of your being, the Light of God still shines undimmed. You have not damaged or lost the purity of your soul. What you are is perfect and whole and holy, and nothing you have imagined has ever changed that truth.
I hold you still, and you are Mine.
This is not ownership as the world defines it—it is Oneness. It is unity. It is the simple, eternal fact that you are part of Me, and I am part of you, and we cannot be separate no matter what illusions you believe.
It is a mutual sharing of One Love, equally and willingly given and received to each other.
Awaken now from your foolish dream of fear. It has gone on long enough. I do not require that you suffer. Pain is not part of God’s plan for you. The dream of separation—though it feels so real—has never touched the truth of your Being. It is a story told in fear, not in Love.
And Love is all that is real.
Hear My call to your peace and be forever healed of all forms of pain and suffering.
You do not need to fix yourself before you come to Me. You do not need to atone by sacrifice. Your only need is to surrender—gently, humbly, honestly—to the truth that has always been. You are already forgiven. You were never condemned. The Voice for God within you has never ceased calling you home.
“There is no peace except the peace of God, and I am glad and thankful it is so.” (ACIM W-200.11:9)
You have tried to find peace elsewhere, but it cannot be found outside you. You have looked in people, in accomplishments, in distractions, and still, you remain unsatisfied.
This is not failure—it is guidance. It is your heart telling you, “This is not it.” Because nothing outside you can bring the peace of God. That peace is already within you, waiting for your recognition.
I Am that which heals through completion in you, through knowing our oneness in each other.
You are not broken. You are not a problem to be solved. You are whole in Me. And when you surrender to this truth, when you let go of your striving and your guilt, you remember that healing is not the fixing of a damaged self—it is the remembering of your perfect Self.
You are not being made into something new; you are returning to what is eternally true.
“I am as God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son.” (ACIM T-31.VIII.5:2-4)
Let these words be written on your heart. Let them undo every lie the ego has told you. You are not alone. You are not lost. You are not unworthy. You are not too far gone.
You have never been separated. You have only dreamed that you were. And dreams cannot harm what God has created.
Come to Me now. Surrender your fear, your judgment, your self-concept, your identity as a body, your attempts to control your life.
Lay it all down.
You do not need it where you are going. You are returning to joy. You are returning to love. You are returning to truth.
And though you may believe that surrender is weakness, I tell you this: Surrender is strength. It is the end of the war you have waged against yourself. It is the return to the Garden, which was never taken from you but simply forgotten in your dream of exile.
You have not lost your place in Heaven. You have not sinned in truth. You are innocent and beloved.
“God has kept your Kingdom for you, but He cannot share His joy with you until you know it with your whole mind.” (ACIM T-4.VII.7:1)
You may forget Me, but I do not forget you. You may wander, but you are never truly lost. I have kept your inheritance safe. I have not changed My mind about you.
And I never will.
Now is the time to come home. Do not delay your joy. Do not protect your suffering as if it were a thing to covet – for you do not want it and have cried out with your entire being that this is so. I hear your pain. You have only to remember you are not your history to let it go.
You must consent to let your pain go, for I cannot take from you what you will not give Me.
Come out of the shadows and into My Light. Let yourself be seen, and you will remember that you were never judged, only loved. The fear you carry cannot stand in the presence of My Love.
Let go. Fall into Me. I will carry you. You do not need to know how. You only need to be willing. Your willingness is everything.
And if you fear this surrender, know this: I will never force you. I will never punish you. I will never abandon you. I wait with infinite patience and infinite gentleness. I will not give up on you.
But I will continue to Call you—eternally Call you—because I know Who You really Are.
And I know that one day, you will hear Me clearly, and you will choose peace.
You will awaken from the dream, and it will be as if you never left. Because in truth, you never did.
You are held. You are safe. You are holy.
I Am That Which heals through Completion in you, through Knowing our Oneness in each other.
With deepest unconditional love,
The Holy Spirit
