This holy instant would I give to You.
Be You in charge. For I would follow You,
Certain that Your direction gives me peace.And if I need a word to help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the gifts I will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He will hear and answer me, because He speaks for God my Father and His holy Son [my true Self].” (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 361-365, W-pII.361-365. See also ACIM Lesson 361 Insights.)
We can all enjoy a life of peace and happiness. But we must put the One Who knows the way in charge of every moment of every day.
We do not enjoy a life of love and peace because we have put the guide in charge that denies the Source of peace and love. The ego will always lead us to conflict and fear.
The affirmation at the beginning of this lesson is a dedication to let the Voice for God direct our thoughts and actions. We are guaranteed to receive all the help we need to return us to the remembrance of the peace that is our natural state. We need only follow Him. This practice will bring us Home.
