Part II

11. What Is Creation?

Lesson 328

I Choose The Second Place To Gain The First.

What seems to be the second place is first, for all things we perceive are upside down until we listen to the Voice of God. it seems that we will gain autonomy but by our striving to be separate, and that our independence from the rest of God’s creation is the way in which salvation is obtained. Yet all we find is sickness, suffering, and loss and death. This is not what our Father wills for us, nor is there any second to His will. To join with His, it is to find our own. And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to recognize our will.

2. There is no will but Yours. And I am glad that nothing I imagine contradicts what You would have me be. It is Your will that I be holy, safe, eternally at peace. And happily I share that will which You, my Father, gave as part of me.^[1]

Personal Notes:

I choose the second place to gain the first. I meditate on above prayer today, and in quiet I wait to hear my Father’s Voice. I pray for all my brothers and myself for continued guidance, wisdom, discernment, protection, and illumination, of The Way, The Truth, The Life, in Christ Jesus, Amen. Thank you for sharing with me. Walk in Love my friend!
