A Course in Miracles, Lesson 324

There is within each of us an internal teacher, the voice for God that would guide our way. As we develop our ability to hear his voice, his guidance delivers us from fear to love.

I merely follow, for I would not lead.

Father, You are the One Who gave the plan for my salvation to me. You have set the way I am to go, the role to take, and every step in my appointed path. I cannot lose the way. I can but choose to wander off a while, and then return. Your loving Voice will always call me back, and guide my feet aright. My brothers all can follow in the way I lead them. Yet 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. We need not tarry, and we cannot stray except an instant from His loving Hand. We walk together, for we follow Him. And it is He Who makes the ending sure, and guarantees a safe returning home.

Quote of the Day
"Without love, our actions are hysterical. Without love, we have no wisdom."
