私の役割は神の救いの計画にとって不可欠です。
My part is essential to God's plan for salvation.
「神の子」が彼の「父」を完成するように、「神」
Just as God's Son completes his Father, so your part in it completes your Father's plan.
救いは、分離した生命を生き、
Salvation must reverse the mad belief in separate thoughts and separate bodies, which lead separate lives and go their separate ways.
分離した心によって共有される一つの機能が、
というのは、
One function shared by separate minds unites them in one purpose, for each one of them is equally essential to them all.
あなたに対する「神の意志」は完璧な幸せです。
God's Will for you is perfect happiness.
あなたに「神の意志」
Why should you choose to go against His Will?
「神」
The part that He has saved for you to take in working out His plan is given you that you might be restored to what He wills.
この役割は、あなたの幸せに関する「神」
This part is as essential to His plan as to your happiness.
「神」が彼らのもとへとあなたを派遣する人々によって「神」
Your joy must be complete to let His plan be understood by those to whom He sends you.
彼らはあなたの輝く顔の中に彼らの役割を見るでしょう。
そして、あなたの幸せな笑い声の中に「神」
They will see their function in your shining face, and hear God calling to them in your happy laugh.
あなたは「神」の計画にとってまことに不可欠な存在です。
You are indeed essential to God's plan.
あなたの喜びがなければ、「神」の喜びは完全ではありません。
Without your joy, His joy is incomplete.
あなたの微笑みがなければ、世界は救われません。
Without your smile, the world cannot be saved.
あなたが悲しんでいる間は、「神自身」
While you are sad, the light that God Himself appointed as the means to save the world is dim and lusterless, and no one laughs because all laughter can but echo yours.
あなたは「神」の計画にとってまことに不可欠な存在です。
You are indeed essential to God's plan.
あなたの光が「天国」
Just as your light increases every light that shines in Heaven, so your joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows go, and take their place beside you in God's plan.
「神」のメッセンジャーは喜びに満ちており、
God's messengers are joyous, and their joy heals sorrow and despair.
「神」のメッセンジャーは、「父」
They are the proof that God wills perfect happiness for all who will accept their Father's gifts as theirs.
今日、私たちは自分自身を悲しませることはしません。
We will not let ourselves be sad today.
というのは、もし私たちが悲しめば、私たちは「神」
For if we do, we fail to take the part that is essential to God's plan, as well as to our vision.
悲しみは、「神」
Sadness is the sign that you would play another part, instead of what has been assigned to you by God.
こうして、あなたは「神」
Thus do you fail to show the world how great the happiness He wills for you.
したがって、あなたは「神」
And so you do not recognize that it is yours.
今日、
Today we will attempt to understand joy is our function here.
もしもあなたが悲しければ、あなたの役割は果たされておらず、
If you are sad, your part is unfulfilled, and all the world is thus deprived of joy, along with you.
「神」はあなたが幸せになることを依頼しています。これによって、この世界は「神」がどれほど「自分の子」
God asks you to be happy, so the world can see how much He loves His Son, and wills no sorrow rises to abate his joy; no fear besets him to disturb his peace.
今日、あなたは「神」のメッセンジャーです。
You are God's messenger today.
あなたは「神」
You bring His happiness to all you look upon; His peace to everyone who looks on you and sees His message in your happy face.

Then realize your part is to be happy.
あなたに求められているのはこれだけです。あるいは、「神」
Only this is asked of you or anyone who wants to take his place among God's messengers.
これが何を意味するかを考えてください。
Think what this means.
(幸せになるためには何らかの)「犠牲」
You have indeed been wrong in your belief that sacrifice is asked.
あなたは「神」の計画に従って受け取るだけであり、
You but receive according to God's plan, and never lose or sacrifice or die.
さて、私たちに対する「神の意志」を、私たちに対して、そして、
Now let us try to find that joy that proves to us and all the world God's Will for us.
その喜びをここに見つけること、そして、
It is your function that you find it here, and that you find it now.

For this you came.
今日という日をあなたがそれに成功する日にしましょう。
Let this one be the day that you succeed!
あなたの中にいる「キリスト」と出会うために上昇しながら、
Look deep within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts and foolish goals you pass as you ascend to meet the Christ in you.
「神」はそこに在るでしょう。
He will be there.
そして、あなたは今「神」にたどり着くことができます。
And you can reach Him now.
あなたに見られるために待っている「神」
What could you rather look upon in place of Him Who waits that you may look on Him?
どんな些細な思いにあなたを押しとどめる力があるというのでしょ
What little thought has power to hold you back?
あなたに呼びかける「存在」が「神自身」である時、
What foolish goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is God Himself?
