Letting Love Guide Our Thoughts and Actions

Let every voice but God’s be still in me.

Father, today I would but hear Your Voice. In deepest silence I would come to You, to hear Your Voice and to receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this: I come to You to ask You for the truth. And truth is but Your Will, which I would share with You today.

Today we let no ego thoughts direct our words or actions. When such thoughts occur, we quietly step back and look at them, and then we let them go. We do not want what they would bring with them. And so we do not choose to keep them. They are silent now. And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and tells us of our will, as we have chosen to remember Him. (A Course in Miracles Workbook Lesson 254, W-pII.254. See also ACIM Lesson 254 Insights.)

Our ego thoughts tell us that we are weak, capable of being harmed or inflicting harm. They tell us we are separate and alone, so we need to plan for our safety and seek for love to be complete.

Whenever any of these thoughts in their various forms enter our mind, it is a signal that we need to step back. We need to remind ourselves that these are not our real thoughts, for we are not the ego. By stepping back and disconnecting our allegiance from the ego, we we quiet the ego’s voice in ur mind. We open our minds to God’s Voice.

Our real Thoughts are the Thoughts of Love we share with God. God’s sole Will is to extend Love. That is how He created His Son. As His Son, we share His Will. Our true Self’s Will is to extend Love and nothing else. Our true Self, God’s Son, co-creates with Him. Extending Love is our will. It brings us joy and peace of mind.

We dedicate ourselves to serve Love today. We choose Love to guide our thoughts, words and actions. We let the vision of Love remind us of our oneness with every brother in God.
