Saying “Yes” to God’s Will for Us

There is no question but one you should ever ask of yourself;—“Do I want to know my Father’s Will for me?” …Our function is to work together, because apart from each other we cannot function at all. The whole power of God’s Son lies in all of us, but not in any of us alone. God would not have us be alone because He does not will to be alone. That is why He created His Son, and gave him the power to create with Him.

We cannot be separated. Whom God has joined cannot be separated, and God has joined all His Sons with Himself. Can you be separated from your life and your being? The journey to God is merely the reawakening of the knowledge of where you are always, and what you are forever. It is a journey without distance to a goal that has never changed. Truth can only be experienced. It cannot be described and it cannot be explained. I can make you aware of the conditions of truth, but the experience is of God. Together we can meet its conditions, but truth will dawn upon you of itself. (A Course in Miracles, T-8.VI.8:1,4-7;9:3-11. See also ACIM Text Made Simple.)

The ego is totally opposed to God’s Will. When we identify with the ego and belief in separation, we do not want to know God’s Will for us. We are choosing fear and hate instead of peace and Love.

This choice does not make reality but it does make an illusion of being separate, alone and disconnected from God’s changeless Love. This disconnection makes us feel powerless, lonely and unworthy because the Source of Love, strength and value is in our unity with our Creator.

When we choose to accept God’s Will for us, we choose to be happy, because God’s Will for us is perfect happiness. We choose to be strong and invulnerable because we accept God’s gift of all His strength. We know our value is of God and cannot be diminished.

The journey to accepting God’s Will for us is the process of letting go of the ego’s beliefs. We do this with the help of the Holy Spirit, Who recognizes what we believe, but does not join with us in our mistaken beliefs. If we are willing to let the Holy Spirit be our Guide, He will lead us to replace our mistaken beliefs with His vision of our true Holiness and our unity with God. He leads us to the acceptance of our true Self, which God created one with Him.

Today let us join with the Holy Spirit and say, “Yes” to God’s Will for us.
