Accepting God’s Will Brings Joy and Peace

Father, I thought I wandered from Your Will, defied it, broke its laws, and interposed a second will more powerful than Yours. Yet what I am in truth is but Your Will, extended and extending. This am I, and this will never change. As You are One, so am I one with You. And this I chose in my creation, where my will became forever one with Yours. That choice was made for all eternity. It cannot change, and be in opposition to itself. Father, my will is Yours. And I am safe, untroubled and serene, in endless joy, because it is Your Will that it be so.

Today we will accept our union with each other and our Source. We have no will apart from His, and all of us are one because His Will is shared by all of us. Through [His Will] we recognize that we are one. Through [our oneness] we find our way at last to God. (, A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 329,W-pII.329. See also ACIM Lesson 329 Insights.)

We were created in perfect safety, perfect peace and endless joy. This is God’s Will for us. And His Will does not change. If we experience anything other than this, we are perceiving an illusion and believing it is real. It is a signal that we need to choose a different Guide, one Whose only purpose is to remind us that God’s Will is ours.

No wish to be different will ever fix the empty space left by our denial of God’s Will. The choice for a separate identity is the choice for a loveless world, which will never satisfy. We accepted Love’s Creation as ours, so Love is What we are. Happiness and peace come with accepting God’s Will as ours.
