cultivate the willingness and the art of returning to the simplicity of empty-headedness and not-knowingness, with each and every breath. It is a way of life in which all things and all events become an aspect of your meditation and your prayer, until there is established, once again within you, the Truth that is true always: *Not my will, but Thine be done. *For of myself, I do nothing. * *But my Father does all things through me.
Imagine, then, a state of being in which you walk through this world, seemingly appearing like everyone else, and yet, you are spacious within; you are empty within. In Truth, you desire nothing, though you allow desire to move through you, and you recognize it as the Voice of the Father, guiding your personality, your emotions, and even the body, to the places, to the events, to the people, to the things, to the experiences through which the tapestry of the Atonement is being woven, through which all of the Children of God are called home again. You trust the complete flow of that, whether you are asked to give a speech in front of ten thousand people, or you’re asked to tell a friend the truth of your feelings, or whether or not you are, perhaps, asked to sweep the streets and live penniless. For in Truth, that mind that trusts the Source of its creation allows all things, trusts all things, embraces all things, and transcends all things.
