Are we vigilant in discerning God’s will for us?



Choosing through the Holy Spirit will lead you to the Kingdom. You create by your true being, but what you are you must learn to remember. The way to remember it is inherent in the third step, which brings together the lessons implied in the others, and goes beyond them towards real integration. If you allow yourself to have in your mind only what God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as God created it. Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. Since it is whole, you are teaching peace because you believe in it. The final step will still be taken for you by God, but by the third step the Holy Spirit has prepared you for God. He is getting you ready for the translation of having into being by the very nature of the steps you must take with Him. T-6.V.C.5:1-8

The third step taught by the Holy Spirit is “Be vigilant only for God and His Kingdom.” Jesus said that a good prayer to pray is what we now call the Our Father which in part is “Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. They Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” What is God’s will for us? Are we vigilant in discerning God’s will or do we rely on our devices, our ego?


In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the free and responsible search for truth and meaning. This search is for God’s will for us.


Today it is suggested that as we go about your daily activities, that we be vigilant about discerning and doing what we believe is God’s will for us.
