Each time I think I am on my own let me turn to him and set aside my judgement and turn to him.  I let go of my stubborn ideas that I am a victim of my brother and ask to see again his innocence and have my heart opened.  I feel resistance and fear creep in and give that to God, asking to trade this lack of love for His Love and ask to let me know of my true safety in Him.

I willingly let go of the fear of what is unknown to me, in trust.  What comes in fills my heart to overflowing and turns me around completely, like Jesus taking my hand and leading me back to the way from which I came.   The light shone on my back and I did not see it. Now he brings me to face directly into it and my mind and heart can see what I could not before.  I let go of a lowly perspective of hate, now forgotten and traded for a joy and love so complete that no idea of lack or sin would touch it.

My only purpose is the extension of the love of God to my brother. If I am not saved I can not even see him to offer him what I do not have.  My only function then is to remember the way to my salvation and trust not in myself but in Him who shines into my heart to guide me. Jesus is a bridge and a guide to God. Through Jesus I find the Love which is in my own. Through Him I know God. My only joy could be the extension of that Love. The joy to be used as a conduit of God’s light is the highest and only true purpose. It is the joy of all who look in the world but know not for what they seek or where to find it. Through my connection with Him I experience the intense Love and Light of God and it is not of me nor of this world. There is nothing in this world that holds value above it or that could even be compared. His light removes everything that held lack and separation from Him and no more could I want.
