Coincidence?

(c) By: Sharon Slaton Howell



More and more I'm coming to see,
if we for God's guidance pray,
and earnestly want to stay
in tune with things divine,
seek counsel from the One Mind,
whether involving circumstances
or events seemingly brought
about merely by man,
we find there is at
work in our lives God's plan.
And how approriate it is
to seek His right-on direction
the way our Lord and Master did.
Thus doing, less and less we'll
wake up one day to find
our footsteps, alas, have slid.
So, in matters material or ethereal,
I'm learning it's worth the bother
to get guidance from our loving,
always-with-us, all-knowing Father.

As Isaiah 30:21 assures us,
"And thine ears shall hear a word
behind thee, saying, This is the way,
walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right
hand, and when ye turn to the left."

Identifying ourselves with the Mind One
(the only Mind we've ever had)
we're sure to see this promise done.
