I am the Order in God's ALL Order

I was reading the exercise for the day in the Course In Miracles, and I started to ponder the question of the abiity to know truth.   To live in God's will feels often like navigating by sense of smell.  Sometimes the winds are a bit off, and I lose my course, but I can find my way again when I tune back in.

Lesson 154 -
Let us today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have gone beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge ourselves, nor need we do so.  These are but attempts to hold decision off, and to delay commitment to our function. It is not our part to judge our worth, nor can we know what role is best for us; what we can do within a larger plan we cannot see in its entirety. Our part is cast in Heaven, not in hell. And what we think is weakness can be strength; what we believe to be our strength is often arrogance.

Personal Comment:  There is order that I cannot see.  I am made perfectly for the greater plan, my life is unfolding according to the plan, and I can let go of judging the correctness and choose to participate fully.  My ego my convince me that I am wrong, or the world is wrong, and these trappings can lead me to lose my way, to hesitate in my participation in the larger plan.

Whatever your appointed role may be, it was selected by the Voice for God, Whose function is to speak for you as well. Seeing your strengths exactly as they are, and equally aware of where they can be best applied, for what, to whom and when, He chooses and accepts your part for you. He does not work without your own consent. But He is not deceived in what you are, and listens only to His Voice in you.
Personal Comment:  As I am made perfectly for my role, I must learn to listen to God's Voice, and live out that part fully.

The exercise given in the Course was about receiving and sharing the messages of God.  To hear and share the intention of God in the world.  To be the hands and voice of God.  To experience the presence of God in the world, and hence to be able to share that. 

There is an element of alignment here.  That when I am in alignement with God's Truth, I am now fully aware of who I am, and can fulfill my purpose as asigned to me by God.  To fulfill the higher purpose and help to create order seeing God's plan fulfilled on Earth.

We forget who we are and start to follow our own plans, deny who we are, and live an ego based life.  When we do this, we create chaos.  We lose touch with God's plan and the creation of the higher order of things.

In this verse of the Course, we become aware again of God's plan for us.

"Now this mind becomes aware again of Who created it, and of His lasting union with itself. So is its Self the one reality in Which its will and that of God are joined."

As in previous lessons, God is Truth.  This particular lesson to me points to the creation of the higher order expressed through the positive actions of each individual who embraces God's Will.
