The Cosmic Citizen finishes our exploration of the God within in Paper 111:5 - 7.
111:5.1 "The doing of the will of God is nothing more or less than an exhibition of creature willingness to share the inner life with God — with the very God who has made such a creature life of inner meaning-value possible. Sharing is Godlike — divine. God shares all with the Eternal Son and the Infinite Spirit, while they, in turn, share all things with the divine Sons and spirit Daughters of the universes."
We consecrate our choice to the doing of God's will not by negating our will but by empowering ourselves to choose God's will.
111:6.8 "It is only natural that mortal man should be harassed by feelings of insecurity as he views himself inextricably bound to nature while he possesses spiritual powers wholly transcendent to all things temporal and finite. Only religious confidence — living faith — can sustain man amid such difficult and perplexing problems." The Human Paradox.
111:7.1 "Uncertainty with security is the essence of the Paradise adventure — uncertainty in time and in mind, uncertainty as to the events of the unfolding Paradise ascent; security in spirit and in eternity, security in the unqualified trust of the creature son in the divine compassion and infinite love of the Universal Father; uncertainty as an inexperienced citizen of the universe; security as an ascending son in the universe mansions of an all-powerful, all-wise, and all-loving Father." 111:7.5 "Such a life on such a planet!" But with our ever-faithful, ever-wise, and ever-loving Thought Adjuster we can exclaim how great is that life we now llve and willingly give back to our Father in the form of service to our fellows!
