The Inner Life

THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE | MAY 1936

The Christ within me arose each time and would let nothing enter. Today I understand and can now let my love for God and man flow forth freely and with no condemnation for anyone nor anything.

And “All things will be added” has come forth for me. Week before last I decided I would send for The INNER LIFE Magazine and just had not sent, but the Paper says we are to have it, as a sort of reward I would say. So I shall send the money anyway and know it will help you. This is only one case of “All” being added.

The inner way is the only way. Many are interested but have not the time to delve into themselves and clear out all hindrances. They like to close the door, as they think, and make demonstrations that mystify people; but I have watched closely for years and find they always are thrown down just before they reached their goal. That led me to seek carefully and to cleanse myself of worldly ideas.

These Lessons have always interested me because while many here have tried so hard to get the Papers, I could not lose them. They cannot understand why they still come to me and, as you know, it has seemed to me that I did not really do the work; that there is One Who knows I did not. As I see now, I had done “the work” at some past time, but did not know I had. So as at the beginning of my journey with you, I wrote, “I cannot see the steps between,” I now, at this end, which is not an end but a sort of graduation, see. “There is no need of seeing the steps between, but looking to the finished work there are no steps for one to take. All is done, all is finished.”

LAW

LAW IS God’s eternal covenant with man. It is very beautiful to know that life may be to each of us an orderly process, and that we may build according to our desire and our choice. We may become Master Builders and build life according to any specified plan we choose, and this is because it is the Law, and Law is unchangeable.

Because of Law there is in all departments of life order, organization, plan. Life is established by Law; therefore life is secure, physically, mentally, spiritually, eternally.
