CONTAINING quotations from our replies to those writing us for help in their Spiritual problems. Each day at 12 o’clock noon, we take the names of those asking for such help in the Silence of the Spirit, and “Speak the Word” for them. Many hundreds have testified to receiving the blessings of such ministry.

AS to the matter of your wearing glasses, why allow that to concern you? Instead, put the energy you devote your eyes to the finding of the Kingdom, when you are promised that all other things will be added unto you. Can you not see that by entering your thoughts upon the healing and perfecting of your body, you are fixing your attention and interest upon self, when you should be seeking to serve and bless others? Never doubt that the true healing will follow when you have left self wholly behind.

Your faith in this great truth is indeed the substance that if held to will lift you out of all conditions of lack, limitation and inharmony in the outer. For, if your loving Father is within you, dwelling in His perfect Self there, and your mind and heart are fully fixed on Him so there are no longer two, but only one; then and then only can He come forth and manifest His Perfect Self in and through you.

TRY TO realize, dear friend, that there is peace and freedom wherever you are, no matter what the conditions. For peace and freedom is a state of mind and nothing else. You can enter that state or place any moment you will, and leave all else outside. And it never pays to run away from outer conditions, for you were placed there by your Loving Father for the very lessons you need and the developing of the soul qualities you still lack. When you are ready to be freed from those conditions, He will lift you out of them without your having to make a single effort. If you love THE IMPERSONAL LIFE read again prayerfully and carefully the chapter on Soul Mates, where you will find the above fully confirmed.

ANSWERING your question whether you can impress sufficiently upon your body and your stomach your wishes, so that they will obey you; yes, but you will have to convince them that you mean it; because their consciousness being a part of your consciousness, they will take as your command, not what you say, but what you inwardly feel or believe is so. Study yourself and see how true this is.
