The Practice That Leads to Increasing Happiness

I share God’s Will for happiness for me.

You do not want to suffer. ²You may think it buys you something, and may still believe a little that it buys you what you want.

⁶Be you free today to join the happy Will of God.

²Here [God’s Will for happiness] is your home, and here your safety is. ³Here is your peace, and here there is no fear. ⁴Here is salvation. ⁵Here is rest at last.

Begin …with this acceptance of God’s Will for you:

²I 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. ⁴And be sure that you are joining with God’s Will in doing this. (A Course in Miracles, W-102.1:1-2;2:6;3:2–4:2;5:1,3-4. See also ACIM Lesson 102 Insights.)

The ego’s choice for specialness and rejection of God’s unconditional Love leads to guilt. In the egos’ twisted thought system, it wants suffering to pay for the sin of denying God’s Love. The problems we experience in the world are the acting out of its need to compensate for guilt.

But these problems can only occur in the thought system that denies God’s Will is for our happiness. As His Son, we are given all of His Love, which is inherently joyous. Happiness is our natural state. We are grateful that this is so.

As we practice accepting His Will, which He shares with us, we experience ever increasing happiness.
