Accepting God’s Blessing

Joy

Joy is the inevitable result of gentleness. ²Gentleness means that fear is now impossible, and what could come to interfere with joy? ³The open hands of gentleness are always filled. ⁴The gentle have no pain. ⁵They cannot suffer. ⁶Why would they not be joyous? ⁷They are sure they are beloved and must be safe. ⁸Joy goes with gentleness as surely as grief attends attack. ⁹God’s teachers trust in Him. ¹⁰And they are sure His Teacher goes before them, making sure no harm can come to them. ¹¹They hold His gifts and follow in His way, because God’s Voice directs them in all things. ¹²Joy is their song of thanks. ¹³And Christ looks down on them in thanks as well. ¹⁴His need of them is just as great as theirs of Him. ¹⁵How joyous it is to share the purpose of salvation! (A Course in Miracles, M-4.V.)

Following the Holy Spirit’s lead is the path to joy because He directs us according to God’s Will. His Will for his Son is perfect happiness. This is an important clue that tells us whether we are accepting His Will as ours or not. If we are not supremely happy, we are in some way rejecting His gifts, which are ours now.

We accept God’s gifts when we are willing to share them equally without limit. In gratitude for His gifts today we freely share the limitless Love of God. We are blessed as we extend His blessing.
