We
are relieved of all thought of clinging
to anybody or anything. Cannot the Great
Principle of Life create for us faster
than we can spend and use? The universe
is inexhaustible; it is limitless; it
knows no bounds and has no confines. We
are not depending on a reed shaken by
the wind, but on the principle of
life itself, for all that we want,
have or ever shall have. It is not some
power, or a great power,
we affirm again; it is ALL POWER. All
that we have to do is to believe this
and act as though it were so, never wavering,
not even once, no matter what happens.
As we do this we shall find that things
are steadily coming our way, and that
they are coming without that awful effort
that destroys the peace fo the majority
of the race. We know that there can be
no failure in the Divine Mind, and this
Mind is the Power on we are depending.
Now
just because we are depending upon Divine
Mind we must not think that we do no have
to do our share. God will work through
us if we let Him, but we must act in the
outer as though we were sure of ourselves.
Our part is to believe, and then act in
faith.
Jesus
went to the tomb of Lazarus believing
and knowing that God was working through
Him. Often we have to go somewhere or
do something and we must know with deep
conviction that there will be a power
going with us that none can gainsay. When
we feel this secure place in our thought,
all that we have to do is to act. There
is no doubt that the creative power
of the universe will answer; it always
does. And so we need not take the
worry upon oursleves, but rather we will
"Make known our requests with thanksgiving."
