The Law of Higher Will

"From the viewpoint of our separate self

and smaller will,

it's normal to act on the basis

of our own desires and preferences;

when we surrender to our smaller self and will

to the guidance of a higher will

and dedicate our actions

for the highest good of all concerned, 

we feel an inspired glow

at the center of our life."

Life is this simple:

We are living in a transparent world,

and God shine through in every moment.

This is not just a fable ora  nice story;

it is living truth.

If we remember God, abandon ourselves to God,

and forget ourselves,

we may see this truth:

God manifests everywhere, in everything.

We cannot be without God.

It's impossible.

It's simply impossible.

- Thomas Merton
