I give my life to God to guide today.
Father, I give You all my thoughts today. ²I would have none of mine. ³In place of them, give me Your Own. ⁴I give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your Will instead of seeking goals which cannot be obtained, and wasting time in vain imaginings. ⁵Today I come to You. ⁶I will step back and merely follow You. ⁷Be You the Guide, and I the follower who questions not the wisdom of the Infinite, nor Love whose tenderness I cannot comprehend, but which is yet Your perfect gift to me.
Today we have one Guide to lead us on. ²And as we walk together, we will give this day to Him with no reserve at all. ³This is His day. ⁴And so it is a day of countless gifts and mercies unto us. (A Course in Miracles, W-233. See also ACIM Lesson 233 Insights.)
The ego can never satisfy our deepest desire. Beneath the belief that we want specialness is the desire of our true Self to remember our eternal unity in the oneness of God’s Love.
Only by extending God’s Love will we be truly happy. We accept our place as extensions of God’s Love by relinquishing our attempts to control Reality. The choice to let Him guide our thoughts and actions is the choice for happiness.
Today we turn over control to Him, remembering that God’s only desire is for His Son’s perfect happiness. We choose to follow His lead today.
