Is this truly the remedy? To let go, to trust, to submit my will to your will?

You either are, or you are not. What is to be my choice?

I am yours.

Take me by the hand, Lord, and guide me through the day. I yield my will.

(Letter #2,726)

This path I walk, this day through which I move – you are the sun shining down upon it. Throngs around me, we all travel these roads.

O sunshine, there are no portions to be shared! If two of us walk, we do not each get half-light. Your full measure shines on all.

When peace comes, neither is it divisible. There are no halves in your providence, dear Lord.

Let me give, for I live in abundance today. We all live in abundance.

(Letter #2,725)

The clocks tick without my involvement. The tide rises and falls, the winds blow, the flowers bloom – all without me.

Lord, what is in my control? Let me attend to that.

Lord, what cannot I influence? Let me then learn to accept and love.

Thy will be done today.

(Letter #2,724)

You underlie all. Everything rests upon you. Your power, moves all things.

I shared my fears with you, and I began to outgrow fear.

I shared my frustrations with you, and I began to outgrow resentment.

I shared my weakness with you, and I began to grow stronger.

Lord, let the world heal under your gaze. Thy will be done, in the big and the small.

(Letter #2,723)
