Welcoming the Love That Unites Us

I merely follow, for I would not lead.

“Father, You are the One Who gave the plan for my salvation to me. ²You have set the way I am to go, the role to take, and every step in my appointed path. ³I cannot lose the way. ⁴I can but choose to wander off a while, and then return. ⁵Your loving Voice will always call me back, and guide my feet aright. ⁶My brothers all can follow in the way I lead them. ⁷Yet I merely follow in the way to You, as You direct me and would have me go.

So let us follow One Who knows the way. ²We need not tarry, and we cannot stray except an instant from His loving Hand. ³We walk together, for we follow Him. ⁴And it is He Who makes the ending sure, and guarantees a safe returning home. (A Course in Miracles, W-324. See also ACIM Lesson 324 Insights.)

The ego is the wish to take control of our ‘life’ experience. It is saying to our Father, “I want to do it my way.” It is a rebellion against the authority of our Creator.

Yet our Creator’s Will for His creation is perfect peace and joy in the oneness of Love. This is our Reality. Rebellion against Reality can only occur in dreams. When we are engaged in a dream, our belief makes it seem very real. But when we wake up from the dream, it is clear that nothing really happened in the reality.

We have been given a Guide Whose mission is to lovingly lead us out of the dream. This Guide knows the truth of what we are and disregards our vain imaginings as meaningless. When we are willing to follow His lead, we will learn to recognize the Reality of Love in which we live. Our focus shifts to Christ’s vision, which forgives the world which we have dreamt and welcomes the Love that joins us all together as one.
