LESSON 253

My Self is ruler of the universe.

1. 1It is impossible that anything should come to me unbidden by myself. 2Even in this world, it is I who rule my destiny. 3What happens is what I desire. 4What does not occur is what I do not want to happen. 5This must I accept. 6For thus am I led past this world to my creations, children of my will, in Heaven where my holy Self abides with them and Him Who has created me.

2. 1You are the Self Whom You created Son, creating like Yourself and One with You. 2My Self, which rules the universe, is but Your Will in perfect union with my own, which can but offer glad assent to Yours, that it may be extended to Itself.
