T-14.VII.5. Light cannot enter darkness when a mind believes in darkness, and will not let it go. 2 Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and love does not attack fear. 3 What needs no protection does not defend itself. ... 11 Do not delay in your return to peace by wondering how [the Holy Spirit] can fulfill what God has given Him to do. 12 Leave that to Him Who knows. 13 You are not asked to do mighty tasks yourself. 14 You are merely asked to do the little He suggests you do, trusting Him only to the small extent of believing that, if He asks it, you can do it. 15 You will see how easily all that He asks can be accomplished.
T-14.VII.6. The Holy Spirit asks of you but this; bring to Him every secret you have locked away from Him. 2 Open every door to Him, and bid Him enter the darkness and lighten it away. 3 At your request He enters gladly. 4 He brings the light to darkness if you make the darkness open to Him. 5 But what you hide He cannot look upon. 6 He sees for you, and unless you look with Him He cannot see. ... 8 Bring, therefore, all your dark and secret thoughts to Him, and look upon them with Him. 9 He holds the light, and you the darkness. 10 They cannot coexist when Both of You together look on them. 11 His judgment must prevail, and He will give it to you as you join your perception to His.
