"I WILL STEP BACK AND LET GOD LEAD THE WAY."

I do not change my appearance, though I smile more frequently.  My forehead is serene; my eyes are quiet.  This world is an illusion.  Those who choose to come to it are looking for a place where they can be illusions, and avoid their own reality.  Then they can step back and let God lead the way.  What other choice is really theirs to make?  To let illusions walk ahead of truth is madness.  To let the truth stand forth as what it is, is merely sanity.

The mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence, for those who look upon who chose to come.  If truth demanded they give up the world, it would appear to them as if it asked the sacrifice of something that is real.  For sacrifice and deprivation both are quickly left behind.  Illusion will appear to cling to you.  Yet it has stepped back.  For the truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them through illusions, the road leads past illusion now and they may follow you.

Sacrifice and deprivation are paths that lead nowhere, choices for defeat, and aims that will remain impossible.  We will step back as truth comes forward in us, to lead our brothers and sisters from the ways of death,  and set them on the way to happiness.  Such is salvation's call, and nothing more.  It asks that we accept the truth, and let it go before us, lighting up the path of ransom from illusion.  It is not a ransom with a price.  There is no cost, but only gain.

At the journey's ending there will be no gap, no distance between truth and us.  All illusions walking in the way we travelled will be gone from us as well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as Himself.  Kindly, step back in faith and let truth lead the way.  We do not know where we are going.  But One who knows goes with us.  Let Him lead us with the rest.  As truth goes before us, so it goes before our brothers and sisters who will follow us.

We walk to God.  Pause and reflect on this.  Could any way be holier, or more deserving of our effort, of our love and of our full intent?  We walk to God.  The truth that walks before us now is one with Him, and leads us to where He has always been.  Our feet are safely set upon that road that leads the world to God.  Do not look to ways that seem to lead us elsewhere.  Dreams are not a worthy guide for us who are God's children.  "I will step back and let God lead the way, that I would walk along the road to God."   Visit; www.dabreaufoundation.org
