Being a Messenger of Love

We walk to God. Pause and reflect on this. Could any way be holier, or more deserving of your effort, of your love and of your full intent? What way could give you more than everything, or offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now is one with Him, and leads us to where He has always been. What way but this could be a path that you would choose instead?

Your feet are safely set upon the road that leads the world to God. Look not to ways that seem to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are not a worthy guide for you who are God’s Son. Forget not He has placed His Hand in yours, and given you your brothers in His trust that you are worthy of His trust in you. He cannot be deceived. His trust has made your pathway certain and your goal secure. You will not fail your brothers nor your Self.

And now He asks but that you think of Him a while each day, that He may speak to you and tell you of His Love, reminding you how great His trust; how limitless His Love. In your Name and His Own, which are the same, we practice gladly with this thought today:

I will step back and let Him lead the way,
For I would walk along the road to Him.
(A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 155, W-pI.155.12-14. See also ACIM Lesson 155 Insights.)

The ego is the idea of wanting to be independent and in charge of his own “destiny.” It does not tell you its destiny is hell, complete isolation and lack of Love. It hides this fact beneath appealing projected images that seem to offer possibilities of happiness, pleasure and safety. But these images only reinforce the belief that separation and lack of Love are real. No relief or happiness it seems to offer lasts.

Our only satisfaction comes with fulfilling the purpose God gave us—to extend Love and nothing else. When we let Love guide all our words and actions, we become messengers of Love in the world. The Love we are joins with the Love that is the truth in every brother. This joining fulfills our purpose to extend Love and join with God’s creation. This is how we walk with God. When we walk in Love, we are joined with our brothers in God’s Love. Let’s do it together.
