You sometimes wonder why certain things are given to you to bear; do not, for it is a waste of time. Put your desire, your pent up feeling, into the pure desire of being with the Creator, and watch during the day the extraordinary waste of thinking that unmakes and weakens. It is the discipline of one’s thoughts that matters, the turning inward and resting in that deep center where all is still and safe and sure. Great is the companionship and the peace of so doing, and be sure you know you are doing your best.

Receive in quiet the assurance of your protection.

When you place a new concept into your galaxy of thought it takes time for it to grow bright to outshine your old thinking.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><> page 105

A very gentle, calm, unemotional selflessness and patient attitude toward your spiritual growth is essential.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><> page 105

Illumine the common things (as remembrances of the Almighty) and you will fill your skies with stars. Go, seek goodness and you will find it; seek beauty and it will be upon your face. Thus will you walk the glorious way using the common elements of daily life as rods and shafts. Nothing is too small for your consideration and for your use.

Make the habit of worship in every act of your daily life. “Not a solemn duty but an overture of feeling (and intention)…. Worship is the giving out of love to the Creator, and with it comes a warming sense of companionship. It is, as one has said, a witness to the glory.”
<><><><><><><><><><><><><> page 114

Picture the spirit within you (quiet and alert and accepting) to which you turn as a calm inward flame; you quietly holding it is what is important…. You are actually being in space by pure thought; you are not a body corporeal; that is not the reality (of you). That is a stumbling experiment . You are deathless, true, divinely breathing eternity as you go.

Be patient.

Be in the light of the Creator.

In reply to your need, I say that simplicity of approach is what you require at the moment; if you could only see, if you could only hear, if you could only know how simple, how tender, how radiant is the feeling of oneness with your indwelling Spirit!
<><><><><><><><><><><><><> page 116

And remember that the more tender, the more open, the gentler you can be in your quiet time of acceptance, of stillness, the greater the power pressed through your silences. In quiet listen to the Spirit within you speak:

My will in you is joy, not sorrow.

My will in you is faith, not fear.

My will in you is awareness of My love for you.

Let My will within you be done.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><> page 117

The blessed thing is that you have come into realization of the spiritual adventure and that your intent is forward.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><> page 118

Can you stand and think in perfect stillness that you are but the expression of the long thrust upward of an idea, casting off all weights, all heavy feelings in the realization of the upward flight? Cast off everything; be the forward part of the thrust, illumined, your light breaking forth from within.

Live in eternity, the ever present.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><> page 118

The natural instinct for joy is to become the joyful awareness of spiritual oneness with the Creator and the realization of the power there from.

Do not waste time wishing for peace; there is no peace in a world, there is only peace in one’s own soul.
