Will

Will is my ability to make decisions and act on them. As I begin and end each day, I remind myself that I am much more than human. I am God’s image, heir to all that God is. Unity cofounder Charles Fillmore explains it this way: “All the powers of Being are summed up and concentrated in the one word I.”

In prayer, I align in thought and feeling with the divine presence, the Christ of my being. I pray affirming: Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

All sense of limitation dissolves into awareness of oneness with God. Human willfulness gives way to willingness as new possibilities for good are revealed. Divine love, wisdom, and understanding illumine and direct my will.
