− | [[Dedication]] to [[the Father]] is an always situation.

| [[Dedication]] does not imply eliminating from your [[life]] as it does direct you toward [[manifesting]] in your life. That which hinders and [[separates]] you from [[God]] will fall away as you lose your [[taste]] in these situations. You will enjoy [[peace]] where your life does not [[conflict]] with [[the Father]]'s will, even though the Father has no specific [[command]] in that regards. You will enjoy the exhilaration of being a [[representative]] of the greatest [[Being]] in all [[the universe]], actively and actually letting His [[spirit]] [[flow]] through you, [[touching]] the lives of all around you, working in concert with His [[presence]] in each and every one. | | [[Dedication]] does not imply eliminating from your [[life]] as it does direct you toward [[manifesting]] in your life.
