Even as I look at You I see You looking at me. What is it You see? Do you see deep within me the disappointment of a life planned that did not come as dreamed? I, too, among many dreamed of a life of great success, importance, impactful upon men and family – that at the end I would look back with fondness upon a life of accomplishment and meaning.

 

In my eyes it has not happened. Yet I am with You. I believe You have done all, without my knowledge, to make this happen, this place with You. And I see You. Yet I still would restore the ship of my sunken life to the dream it was before in my mind – to the grand possibilities I had imagined. Would it have led to this place with You? Likely not, and this You knew.

 

I feel through circumstance the destruction of my dreams was done by You that I might be here. And now, in this place with You, I still would revive the dreams of old. Would You destroy them again, repeatedly until I let them go? I think so, for You would have me here with You eternally.


I have not seen, yet now know deep within, that the life of my dreams is small within Your gaze. I do not see the grand plan of being with You, only my personal desires, only my dreams based on my desires, and what I have seen through experience.

 

I do not see through Your desires. For if I did I would see a life of fulfillment of the grandest of all I would dream, of possibilities contained within your vison for me, a presence of untold number of lives within the one, the magnificence of life within You. I do not see this; You do.

 

As You gaze upon the lives of all men, You know that I am with You, where You would have me. And I will go about building my life until I cease the struggle and find my contentment in the place I am – here with You.


 

This is the sadness you feel – that in letting go of your life there would be no life at all, that your desires would come to nothing but the dreams of an old man. You are not ready to give up on these lifetime dreams – and though less important to you now, still remain hidden deep within the recesses of your heart.

 

Yet I have shared with You the truth of what lies within your heart, the desires I have created there for you. These you have felt, but do not know. I would not have you sad, nor unaware to the joy that lies before you when you can release the past and let yourself go with Me into your future.

 

This is important to Me – to let you live all I have created within you, that you might become all that you are within Me. In letting all go all is released. Let not your work be for the past even though you now see Me with you. Rather, allow Me to build your work into something grand within My vision.

 

Cease your sadness at what was; rejoice in what is – for your heart would be full.
