Finding our True Self is the purpose of the Holy Spirit's curriculum. The nature of the ego is fear, and we know that all too well. We are not so aware of our Reality, which is aligned with the Will of God. But our true Will is the same as the Will of God. God's Will for us is Perfect Happiness and Absolute Love. The Will is full awareness of our True Self. Fear abides in the things that we "know." The self we made up is full of fear, and we choose it over our the Self God created. It is insane to cling to the false self that is rooted in fear. But this is what we do. We can accept our Reality is Love, Truth, Joy, Perfect Happiness, etc. All else is a bad dream we made up.
