How can we consciously follow the Will of the Almighty in our everyday lives?
This question lies at the heart of every sincere seeker. And the answer is not as complex as it may first appear. To walk daily in the Will of the Almighty, we must begin with a clear recognition of what that Will truly is.
The Will of God is not hidden. It has been revealed to humanity through the ages from the Ten Commandments to the Teachings of Christ, Who distilled them into two enduring principles: Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and Love your neighbour as yourself. The Grail Message, a luminous guide for earnest seekers today, affirms that all Divine Laws are fulfilled in the Law of Love. Simply put: Love is the Will. Love is the essence. Love is the standard.
Even nature itself proclaims this truth. From a single orange seed comes only an orange tree never mango or guava. This immutable law in nature reflects a spiritual reality: whatever we sow in thought, word, or deed, we must also reap. If we radiate genuine love, goodwill, kindness, and helpfulness, we attract these same forces back into our lives, multiplied.
Having recognised the Will, our next step is to choose it consciously and deliberately. Let love become the anchor of your thoughts, the filter of your words, and the foundation of your actions. This requires daily effort, a quiet purification of our inner life. But it is not difficult. The belief that the Lord’s Will is too hard to obey is false. Divine laws are clear and straightforward. They simply demand inner honesty, sincerity, and consistency.
As we move through the decisions and demands of daily life, we can anchor ourselves with two timeless questions:
Will this action support my spiritual growth?
Will it uplift my inner being and draw me closer to Truth and Light?
Will it genuinely benefit others and avoid causing harm?
Does it reflect concern for the well-being of others?
If your answer to either question is no or unclear, then it is time to pause and reflect. That moment of pause can be a sacred turning point.
To walk in the Will of the Almighty is not to live a life of restriction, but one of inner peace, purpose, and power. It is a conscious, sincere journey, one where every step, however small, becomes meaningful when it is rooted in love.
May we all have the courage to walk this path each day.
