I share God’s Will for happiness for me.
You do not want to suffer. You may think it buys you something, and may still believe a little that it buys you what you want.
Be you free today to join the happy Will of God.
Here is your home, and here your safety is. Here is your peace, and here there is no fear. Here is salvation. Here is rest at last.
Begin …with this acceptance of God’s Will for you:
I share God’s Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my function now.
Be happy, for your only function here is happiness. …pause frequently today, to tell yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your one function. And be sure that you are joining with God’s Will in doing this. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 102, W-pI.102.1:1-2;2:6;3:2-4:2. See also ACIM Lesson 102 Insights.)
We have a simple test to determine whether we are accepting God’s Will. We need only ask, “Am I happy?” Our true Self dwells in the joy of God. Anything less than perfect happiness is a sure sign that we are denying His Will.
Unhappiness and pain are a choice. Though in this world, these conditions seem to be imposed on us. The choice we make to accept the ego’s substitute as our identity instead of the Son of God inevitably leads to unhappiness, pain, guilt and fear. We need to forgive ourselves for choosing specialness instead of the all inclusiveness of Love. It is a denial of God’s Will.
As we remind ourselves that we want God’s Will because we want to be happy and at peace, our experience in the world changes. More and more we see the Love beyond the appearances of separation in the world. When we accept His Will, we respond to the world with Love. Kindness becomes a way of being. Appearances of loss and lack are recognized as calls for Love for these conditions simply demonstrate the need for Love. Love heals fear and guilt, for It sees that there is nothing to fear. Only Love is real.
When we accept God’s Will for us, we accept the Love we are and recognize Love’s presence everywhere and in everyone. We choose God’s Will today. It is a choice to be truly happy.
