So it is that all goodness, all beauty, all truth starts with God, flows forth forever from the heart of God, whether it be in the form of a lovely jewel, a shining cluster of grapes, a towering pine, the phosphorescent beauty of the midnight ocean, a flaming sky, the melody of lark or mocking bird; whether it be abundance, joy, or radiant well-being for you and me, the highest-endowed of all God's creations.

Thus it is, beloved, that to become aware of perfect health and strength we must begin where all health and strength begin, with God, the infinite source of eternal well-being. Thus it is, beloved, that to be conscious of radiant happiness and contentment we must begin with God, the author of divine fulfillment. Thus it is, beloved, that to know unfailing supply we must begin with God, the originator of everlasting abundance.

It is only by beginning with God that we can behold the solution to all difficulties, only by starting with God that we can behold the truths about His kingdom and His children. It makes no difference what anyone appears to be or do, what it seems impossible for anyone to be or do, what changes are required in order
