 Until you can arrive at this recognition and conviction and until you come to an inner assurance that there is this He within you, this I, because of Whom you need not fear, you can go no further and your tomorrows will be no different from your yesterdays. Do not try to go beyond this revelation regardless of how many months or years it may take for you to reach the absolute conviction: Where I am, God is. I need never fear, I need never be afraid. This Presence is with me This I is within me. JOEL S. GOLDSMITH

It Was Told of a Certain Potter

Walter C. Lanyon

 

“Further, in the line of common reasoning, we know

that prayer in its generally accepted sense means

 desire. This being the case, we begin to see that our

very desires or prayers, in so far as they are good,

proceed from God, and are not as we formerly supposed

self-originated requests or petitions, but rather the

 urge of God (good) endeavoring to find expression

in us, good endeavoring to be made manifest in the flesh.

 

“Perhaps, for example, you are praying for health.

You are desiring it, but as God is the only creator

and good, in reality your desire for health is but the will of

God trying to express itself through you. ‘God is

willing to do exceeding abundantly, more than we ask

 or think.’ God is ‘willing’ it. And as your desire

for health is prompted by His willingness to be

expressed in perfect strength, you reverse the

proposition and find that, in reality, the health and

strength of God, good, are seeking to find

expression in you , not you seeking to bring

 them into your thought.

 

“If you are praying for supply, is it not in reality

 God’s fullness seeking further expression in you?

 Is it not the ‘still small voice’ calling for a greater expression

of substance, God ? God is all substance; then the

 desire for supply is a greater desire for God, or God

 endeavoring to manifest Himself more fully. And

suddenly you turn from your prayers of beseeching

to the attitude of ‘Speak, for thy Servant heareth’,

and ‘Not my will but thine be done.’ You begin

endeavoring to find out what His wishes are.

 

“Then our part in prayer, after we have acclaimed

God as all and ever-present good, is to relax, to let

go and step aside; literally and figuratively to say ‘Glorify

thy Son that thy son may also glorify thee;’ that is,

make thyself manifest in me, fulfill thy desires. Fling open

 wide the portals of your mind and bid Him enter

who waits without; make thyself wholly acceptable

 to Him, to use for His good pleasure, and your desires

 and prayers will find their rightful expression.

 

 

 

 

In Tune with the Infinite

Ralph Waldo Trine

 

THE optimist is right. The pessimist is right. The one

differs from the other as the light from the dark.

Yet both are right. Each is right from their own

particular point of view, and this point of view

is the determining factor in the life of each. It

determines as to whether it is a life of power or

of impotence, of peace or of pain, of success or of failure.

 

The optimist has the power of seeing things in

 their entirety and in their right relations. The

pessimist looks from a limited and a one-sided

point of view. The one has their understanding

 illuminated by wisdom, the understanding

of the other is darkened by ignorance. Each

 is building their world from within, and the

result of the building are determined by the

 point of view of each The optimist, by their

superior wisdom and insight, is making their

own heaven, and in the degree that they

make their own heaven are helping to

 make one for all the world beside. The

pessimist, by virtue of their limitations, are

making their own hell, and in the degree

that they make their own hell are they

helping to make one for all mankind.

 

You and I have the predominating characteristics

of an optimist or the predominating

characteristics of a pessimist. We then are

making, hour by hour, our own heaven or

our own hell; and in the degree that we are

making the one or the other for ourselves are

 we helping make it for all the world beside.
