for the manifestation of the sons of God." -- Rom. 8:22,19.
"Be still," is not slothfulness, but stilling mortal
opinion, to let Divine Will have its full action. Be still,
but expectant, wide awake, looking! "For to as many
as look for him, he shall appear, without sin unto salvation." We receive what we look for, since that only have we "eyes" for. If we do not look for or expect good, we "shall not see when good cometh!" So of Health, of
Life, and Strength, Peace and all good.
Two who had spent some time in India upon different missions, met, and each told his experience. The
Missionary recounted his triumphs, and rejoiced in the
number of converts; the hunter replied, "I do not believe
there is a Christian in India, for I was there for months
without seeing one."
Then the hunter told his story, and spoke of the
number of bears he had seen and shot; the Minister replied, "I do not believe there is a bear in India, for I was there for years and never saw one."
We all see what we look for. As long as we say, ''We
must look for trials and sufferings, and sickness, and
death, while we are in this world," we shall find just
these. And we cannot but notice now, how busy people
are looking for tribulations!
Let us consider a practical illustration of how to obtain good results by going into Source, rather than working with effect. I feel tired, my body rebels against further effort. I lie down, or lay the body down to rest it.
I rise refreshed, but only for a time; soon again the body
demands rest; it is right, it should have rest! Again I
lay it down to rest; soon again it asks for rest, and it will
continue to cry out for rest, until we learn how to give it
true and permanent rest. How shall we do this? Go to.
