Take up thy cross and follow Me, which means each day, each new day, just the offering up of the will to the Father. That and that alone is the way to find God.
The universal Love of the Father presents one element of danger—in saying that God so loved the world, it conveys to the mind of many, unconsciously, a generalisation, rather than the personal aspect, which is literal fact.
Say then to yourself—God loves me—Christ is my Saviour—the Father has me under His direct care. This is not selfishness. What humanity is crying out for today is a personal Christ, a personal God, an individual Father.
Your personal prayer to God
Home for good, the only Home I want—Home with the companionship of those I love most—Home in the sense that I can be myself, my real self, and could answer without reserve—
Lead Thou me on!
The peace of God is with us. Meet then the future with simplicity, humility, and gratitude—and God will reveal to you, so far as you can take it in, what it means to be a child of His, what it means to have chosen the steep hillside, what it means to be partakers of that which the Father has prepared, only waiting and longing for us to make it our own and to encourage others to try and do the same.
Love opens all gates—just open your heart to Love and all will be as He intended. Yes—God experiences happiness only in the happiness of His creation.
