Index
some
deed of kindness in mind if we are idle and in need of something which
shall absorb and fix the attention. Such will-power as this is irresistible.
It is the God and one that make a majority.
Adjustment to life, then, is
an individual problem, and varies with temperament, surroundings, and habits
of thought. Its principles are universal. First, to realise in our own
way the truth of Chapter II., that we live with God; that God lives in
us; that He is completing us, moving upon us through the forces, the events,
the world in which He resides, through our weaker nature, through our faults,
through the conflicts which we have so long misinterpreted, through pain,
through happiness, and all that constitutes experience; that we have no
power wholly our own, but that we use and are used by divine power; that
we are equal to any task, any emergency, any struggle, for God is here.
Help is near. We need not go anywhere for it. It is omnipresent. It abounds.
It comes to us in proportion to our receptivity to it, our faith in it,
our happiness, our hope, our patience. Then to choose wisely what we wish
to be in co-operation with the immanent Life, since "whatever determines
attention determines action"; to see one's self not in the introspective,
but in the divine light; to be practical in the choice of ideals; to be
ever happy, ever young, ever hopeful, and never discouraged.
