How to Ask for God’s Help

This day is God’s. It is my gift to Him.

I will not lead my life alone today. ²I do not understand the world, and so to try to lead my life alone must be but foolishness. ³But there is One Who knows all that is best for me. ⁴And He is glad to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to God. ⁵I give this day to Him, for I would not delay my coming home, and it is He Who knows the way to God.

And so we give today to You. ²We come with wholly open minds. ³We do not ask for anything that we may think we want. ⁴Give us what You would have received by us. ⁵You know all our desires and our wants. ⁶And You will give us everything we need in helping us to find the way to You. (A Course in Miracles, W-242. See also ACIM Lesson 242 Insights.)

The ego likes to tell God what He needs to do for us. But anything the ego asks for is not in our best interest.

It is important that we ask for our Father’s help with an open mind. He knows what we really need and what will bring us true happiness and peace. God knows our wishes. He will provide everything we need that will help us return to our Home in His Love.
