I follow in the way appointed me.

* GOD, THE ORIGINAL, UNIVERSAL CREATOR APPOINTED ME A WAY ~ IN THE UNIVERSAL PLAN OF SALVATION FOR THE SONSHIP THAT IS CHRIST ~ AS DIRECTED BY JESUS OF NAZARETH AND OTHER ASCENDED MASTERS (OF WHICH THERE ARE MANY). THEY received their Instruction and Guidance from SPIRIT just as I do today one step at a time.

1. I have a special place to fill; a role for me alone.

²Salvation waits until I take this part as what I choose to do.

* It became obvious to me this morning that IF I AM NOT WILLING TO LOOK LIKE A FOOL IN TODAY’S SOCIETY, I may not be up to or ready to fulfill my part in the Plan.

³Until I make this choice, I am the slave of time and human destiny.

* … tossed by the winds of the opinions of alpha egos near and far.

⁴But when I willingly and gladly go the way my Father’s plan appointed me to go, then will I recognize salvation is already here, already given all my brothers and already mine as well.

* AMEN. I have this witness.

2. Father, Your way is what I choose today.

²Where it would lead me do I choose to go; what it would have me do I choose to do.

³Your way is certain, and the end secure.
* I can TRUST FATHER.

⁴The memory of You awaits me there.

* This is actually FATHER, not only the testimony of Jesus’ memory of Him in our Oneness before the “tiny, mad idea” of separation took hold.

⁵And all my sorrows end in Your embrace, which You have promised to Your Son, who thought mistakenly that he had wandered from the sure protection of Your loving Arms.

* I rest in those Loving Arms and I am so grateful!

(ACIM, W-317.1:1–2:5)

Till next time, God bless, debi.
