Remember daily that your salvation has not come through your relationship to an idea, or an emotional state, or a certain type of security. It rather has come more like a proposal from a bridegroom to a bride. And not so much from love and truth in the abstract but from the Person within whom there is all Love and Truth. Don’t ask the cosmos to give you things like courage and understanding. The cosmos will always leave us quite lonely and without the understanding and courage anyway. Learn them from the Person who has perfected them all, as if He was walking with His hand on your shoulder.
