"How does one set about attaining this spiritual
consciousness and thereby lose material sense?" The answer is, "Read
and study the truths revealed through all ages about the universal
Consciousness, Soul or Spirit, and about spiritual creation and its laws.
Imbibe the spiritual sense of these revelations." Joel S. Goldsmith
Prayer of Forgiveness - Author Unknown
i
forgive everyone and everything
that can possibly need forgiveness
of the past, present, or the future
i am free and they are free, too
all things are being cleared up between us
now and forever
but most of all i forgive myself
for ever having set them in motion
"Prayer is the Word of God which comes to you when
you are silent enough, still enough and expectant to receive it." --Joel S. Goldsmith
THE DIVINE PLAN FOR ME
The Divine Plan for me is
Perfect. I am held in the Mind of God as a Complete and Perfect Expression of
Life and Truth. No power can hinder nor mar this Inner Image of Reality, for It
is God-given and God-kept. God gave and God will keep. SOM
I acknowledge the One Presence, the
One Power, the One Being. I acknowledge the nothingness of mistakes, of past
failures, of ignorance of dreams. I acknowledge the Mind of Christ
ever-present. I acknowledge that there is no separation, no departure from
Truth. No return to harmony; there is no bondage and there is no escape. There
is only One Being, -- the changeless love and glory. The One Lillian DeWaters
THE THINGS I NEED COME TO ME
Whatever I need comes to me
from the All Good. Divine Intelligence working through me always knows just
what I need and always supplies it when I need it. This Law is unfailing and
sure, and cannot be broken. I receive my Good daily as I go along the pathway
of Life, and I cannot be robbed of my birthright to freedom and happiness. I
receive my Good. SOM
One in the Light walks in a different world from one in
ignorance although they breathe the same air and walk on the same sidewalk. Man
who places himself under the thoughts and ideas of another is not beholding the
one Being, and man who places another beneath himself as subservient in any way
to his thoughts and ideas has a still larger vision to express.
Always bring your heart to Truth,
ALWAYS bring your love.
Say often “I LOVE the Truth.”
The One Lillian DeWaters
NO OBSTRUCTIONS
There are no obstructions to Life’s Path; no
hinderance to man’s endeavors.
Let my Word be the Law of elimination to all thought
of hinderance or delay.
And let the thing that I speak come forth into
manifestation at once.
I behold it and see that it is even now done,
complete and perfect.
I receive NOW. SOM
“I need
do nothing,” means I need do nothing to be whole, complete and saved from the
dream I made. I am not a body, I am free, and I need do nothing to attain that.
I don’t need to burn off karma, atone for my sins, accept Jesus as my savior,
or be a good person to receive all of God’s love. The only thing I need to do
is believe that I am the Son of God, and receive it.
DIVINE COMPANIONSHIP
I have an Inner Friend who walks and talks with me
daily.
He is not afar off, but is within me, a constant
companion.
I shall never become lonely, for my Friend is always
near.
I have but to speak and He answers.
Before ever my lips spoke He told me of His love.
O my kind Friend, how dear to me is Thy presence.
The Spirit within me is my Friend. SOM
I Know Not What You Are - from "The Thunder of
Silence" by Joel S. Goldsmith
"God, I know not
what You are, or even how to pray to You. I know not how to go in or how to
come out; I know not what to pray for.
"I cannot believe
in the God that the world has accepted, for I have seen the fruitlessness and
frustration which follows such blind faith. I must find the God whom no man
knoweth, the God that is, the one true God that created the universe in His own
image and likeness -- perfect, harmonious, and whole -- and who maintains and
sustains it in its infinite and eternal perfection. In such a God I can
believe.
"Reveal Yourself,
Father; show me Your will. Never again will I dishonor You by trying to tell You
what I need and then attempt to coerce You into delivering it. Never will I
expect You to do my will or my bidding -- to be my messenger boy.
"I place my life,
my hand, my being, and my body in Your keeping. Do with them what You will,
Father. Take my sins, my fears, and my diseases; take my health, and my wealth;
take it all. I ask only one gift -- the gift of You, Yourself." Joel S. Goldsmith
In this form of prayer I do
not go to God to have certain things brought about for tomorrow or for
Thanksgiving or for Christmas. I don't do that. I go to God in this way:
"Today, tomorrow, and
all time to come, God, belong to Thee. Map out my days."
And then I sit in complete
silence -- in complete quietness as if I really and truly had a telephone
receiver at my ear and was trying to hear somebody at the other end.
. . .
Now this is the highest
form of prayer that you can possibly indulge is communion with God, listening
for the still small voice, opening consciousness to truth. There's no higher
form of prayer than that. That is communion. Joel S. Goldsmith 1951
God is IS. God is Being. God IS, and that's all that God is. Joel S. Goldsmith 1951
Mrs. Eddy summed up all of these discords, lumped them together
under the term mortal mind and said that mortal mind wasn't a thing. It was a
term denoting nothingness. Some of her early students, and I happen to know one
or two of them in Boston, were marvelous healers, without any great knowledge
of religion or of Christian Science. But, they were great healers by virtue of
the fact that they had caught that one point, and whenever troubles were
brought to them they could smile and say, "Mortal mind, meaning
nothingness." . . . Whereas originally the meaning was, yes it's measles
or mumps, but it is an illusion, which means it's a mental image of
nothingness. An illusion in thought, a mental image, has no substance, has no
reality. It is merely an unfounded belief about something, a rumor. Joel
Goldsmith 1951
The first
glimpse into the heaven of here and now is the beginning of the ascension for
us. This ascension is understood now as a rising above the conditions and
experiences of "this world," and we behold the "many
mansions" prepared for us in spiritual Consciousness -- in the awareness
of Reality.excerpt of The New Horizon - from
"The Infinite Way" by Joel S. Goldsmith
We thank You, Father, for Your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the end. Help us not interfere, and so delay the happy endings You have promised us for every problem that we can perceive; for every trial we think we still must meet. A happy outcome to all things is sure.
