The Inner Life

THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE | JANUARY 1935

mind. But his soul knew and was now able to control and so directed his mind to do what he did, as shown—even to following instructions for healing given by the Brotherhood, before his mind had seen or read them.

For when the outer mind thus assents and yields itself to Spirit’s use, the soul is free to do the Father’s Will. Remember, “Spirit” is but another name for the Brotherhood of Christ, who are the executors of the Father’s Will, and those souls, whose outer minds and selves have given themselves unreservedly to Christ’s service, thus become wide open channels through which the Father’s Will may be done on Earth even as in Heaven—the highest and purest soul realm of Spirit.

As a worker becomes proficient in such loving and selfless service, he will become more and more aware of the Invisible Power within, back of and ever present with him; and he will become more confident in surrendering to Its use. For inwardly he will know that Power is Spirit or the Loving Ones in Christ, who are One with him and are using him in this, the Father’s Work.

Knowing this, he will ever seek to bring all possible others into this Work as fast as they are ready, by awakening, informing and instructing them what It is all about. When he finds one who is already awakened, who senses the truth and has begun to serve, he will tell him about this Inner Work, will initiate him into its possibilities and inspire him to volunteer for such service; and thereby will form with him the nucleus of a Group for larger work in his community. In time several of such soul comrades will be led to him, whom he will help study and perfect themselves in service, with the assistance of the instructions in the Magazine, thus forming a powerful Group for the Brotherhood’s use in their city.

From time to time they will be led of the Spirit to do special work in their community—for friends, for conditions, for different local movements, social, industrial or governmental; thus becoming a silent, impersonal and unknown influence for good therein, ever working to mould public thinking in the paths of righteousness and away from those demoralizing suggestions being continually planted in the minds of the people by the enemy.
