“Prayer of Faith”
Nancy Bowers, RScP
“You will never lose your way, for God leads you. When you wander, you but undertake a journey that is not real.” – A Course in Miracles
God is never confused. Clarity is Its very essence. Certainty is what It is. It is Constant, Unalterable, Sure. There can be no confusion in God, for Knowledge, Truth is indisputable. If there is room for opinion within it, it is not the Changeless One. And this Divine Presence that I call God is the ultimate Omni, the One and Only. And this Omni-everything is Love and Peace and Joy, and that Immutable Essence is the Ultimate in Reliability. It can be counted on always, for there is never a moment when It is in doubt about what It is. It is Love. It is Peace. It is Home.
And this Changless One is the Source of everything, of everybody. It is the truth of who and what I am. I am never separate from the Divine Love that I call God. I am part of it. It is my essence, which means that I, too, am love and peace and joy. I have a pipeline to the eternal goodness. It is my source, and it is your source. For there is no separation in this life, we are all the one Son of God, the beloved of the Beloved, the darling of Spirit. God breathed the world into being and I am it and so are you and so are we all.
And so knowing this, I relax. I have faith. I know God can be counted on. I know there is nothing I can do to leave God, though I can think myself lost, but in reality, I cannot be. I can never be lost because God would never let me be taken from Him. I can have faith in that. I can know that I am always loved, always blessed, always divinely guided. When I falter, I am always forgiven, for God has never forgotten nor forsaken me and is waiting for me to wake up to the remembrance of the truth of who and what I am. I am His cherished child. I am love. I have nothing to fear ever because God leads me, God protects me, God is my home. The illusions I create to keep myself from experiencing that will never make them real. God is sure. I am loved and that is undeniable. You are loved and that is every bit as undeniable. We are all loved and cherished. All of us have a place inside the One who never forgot who we were. We are the guiltless, the innocent ones off playing in illusion, in this world we made up. But there is nothing to be frightened of. For God is sure and in that I can have faith for God is never fooled by the lies I tell myself.
So I give thanks. I give thanks for faith, for knowing how very loved I am, for recognizing that you are too. You, yes, you. The one who can rest in faith, the one who can relax into this remembrance. God loves you, unshakably, steadfastly. Be grateful this day as I am, for we can rest in peace, at home in the heart of God, knowing we are forever loved.
I release this prayer with a glad heart. I know it is already done for it was always so. My delusions could never keep me from God, my home, my savior. And So It Is. Amen.
