Reading meaning into form can be a huge block to love's presence. The second lesson in "A Course in Miracles" is, "I have given everything I see all the meaning it has for me." (W-2) The ego reads different meanings into everything and judges certain things as good or worthy and others as bad or unworthy. To the Holy Spirit all things are the same because they're all used for the same purpose: forgiveness! Jesus teaches us that everything is of the mind. By tracing our perception of the world back into the beliefs we hold about it, we can see that we've got it all backwards and we really don't know what anything is for without the Holy Spirit's vision.
