Joining Love’s Eternal Extension

Father, Your Will is mine, and only that. ²There is no other will for me to have. ³Let me not try to make another will, for it is senseless and will cause me pain. ⁴Your Will alone can bring me happiness, and only Yours exists. ⁵If I would have what only You can give, I must accept Your Will for me, and enter into peace where conflict is impossible, Your Son is one with You in being and in will, and nothing contradicts the holy truth that I remain as You created me.

And with this prayer we enter silently into a state where conflict cannot come, because we join our holy will with God’s, in recognition that they are the same. (A Course in Miracles, W-307.1–2. See also ACIM Lesson 307 Insights.)

The ego is a demand that God give what He cannot give. God gives us all of His Love, which is all that is Real. He cannot give more than everything.

Because God cannot give what the ego demands, the ego made up a dream with images that appear to offer specialness. This substitute “will” we have accepted as our own. But it is not our real Will. Because we are extensions of God’s Love and remain united with Him, His Will is ours. Our only will is to be Love and extend Love. When we accept our will as God’s, the ego’s substitute is dispelled into the nothingness from which it came.

Today we choose to accept the Self that is God’s Love and join in Love’s eternal extension.
