Good morning God. I’m reading in A Course in Miracles that “happiness is my function”, and “that this is what God wills for us”. But I’ve always had a problem with “just be happy” no matter what is going on. My sense is my idea of just being happy is wrapped up the ideas of good and bad and with how I take care of myself. This feels like a lie when I’m not happy with what is going on around me. Isn’t this how I know I (we) need to change something?
“Good morning my love. Beautiful question. This is really about being happy from within – versus being happy from without. I’m not asking you to be happy about the suffering caused by all the unconsciousness in the world. But I am asking you see it all from my perspective. For you, happiness is synonymous with peace, and that happiness is your natural state – no matter what. From here you can clearly see the circumstances of your life and know that nothing can touch you. You also see your choices in the light of freedom versus being the victim. When you focus on being with me, you know this and you will make choices from your truth. And from here you can be happy, no matter what.
