I merely follow, for I would not lead.
Father, You are the One Who gave the plan for my salvation to me. You have set the way I am to go, the role to take, and every step in my appointed path. I cannot lose the way. I can but choose to wander off a while, and then return. Your loving Voice will always call me back, and guide my feet aright. My brothers all can follow in the way I lead them. Yet I merely follow in the way to You, as You direct me and would have me go.
So let us follow One Who knows the way. We need not tarry, and we cannot stray except an instant from His loving Hand. We walk together, for we follow Him. And it is He Who makes the ending sure, and guarantees a safe returning home. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 324, W-pII.324. See also ACIM Lesson 324 Insights.)
The Voice of Love is always calling us Home. It offers us a plan to awaken from the dream of separation and fear. It is a plan guaranteed to work for it leads us from the ego’s dream of fear to the reality of Love’s Oneness.
The ego defends against Love’s plan with plans of its own. Its plans are guaranteed not to work. They lead us on fruitless searches for the only thing we lack in the dream — Love. The ego is terrified of Love because were we to find and accept It, the ego would disappear into the nothingness from which it came. We would be at Home in the warm embrace of the eternity of Love.
Today we choose the Voice for Love to Guide our thoughts, our words and our actions. Love is guaranteed to lead us Home.
