At Christmas we celebrate the birth of the infant child Jesus. This happy event has its mystical counterpart in the birth of Christ in our own soul. This again is a mystical way of describing the birth of a new life within us, which is no less than the life of God.
But some may want to know how it is possible to awaken the new life within them. They may be earnest seekers, yet they cannot find God, neither can they realize Truth, or find within themselves any trace of the new spiritual life. Let such meditate upon the text at the head of this article 'In Him was life, and the life was the light of men'. Let them sit upright in a chair, quietly with nerves and muscles relaxed, breathing freely, deeply, but naturally, and while they direct their attention to the words, keeping out all extraneous thought, let them see interiorly within themselves the Inward Light. Let them make a practice of doing this every day, and they will surely become conscious of Light within, and of new life animating them, making them conscious of the glorious fact that they are sons of God.
'Christ is in you and is the hope of your glory', said Paul, according to one translator.
May Christ live in each one of us, and arise in us in glory and power.
From Divine Adjustment by Henry Thomas Hamblin – 1930
