The Inner Life

to the Father for His use. This also means that you are not to look to your business as the source of your supply, but to God only. And as you learn to put all your faith and trust in Him, counting Him as your Senior Partner in the business and consulting Him in everything you do, knowing that His Wisdom is supreme and that He knows ahead the result of every move, will you be able to accomplish anything worthwhile. In other words, you must refer all your problems to Him, and allow Him to guide you in everything—not for the purpose merely of making money or of even making a living, but solely to please Him in every thought, word and act of your life.
HUSBAND AND WIFE
Regarding your problem, there is only one thing to do, dear friend, and that is, what the Loving Christ within shows you to do; and until that is plainly shown you—do not do anything. No one else can tell you, for that is between you and husband only. This, however, we can say—try at all times during the day to be in the Christ Consciousness—the Consciousness of selfless Love. This means that self must not be in any way concerned, so that you are able to see out of the eyes of Love only. When in that Consciousness, you are One with husband’s Higher and Better Self, and if you can actually pour out Love to that Self, knowing your true Oneness in Christ, there will surely be a change in him.
Thus, you must keep in mind always,—if he claims your truth studies are leading you astray and are misleading others, it is up to you to prove him wrong. By that we mean, you must show, through all your thinking, speech and actions, that you are living the Christ Life to such extent that he must see and feel it. If you are not doing that, though claiming what you are, he has every right to point these things out to you. In fact, that is why he is led to say these things to make you prove it by living it, as your Higher Self intends you shall live it. Do you see, dear friend, why all this is coming to you? Husband is but the instrument being used by your Higher Self to bring you fully to Christ.
PHYSICAL WEAKNESS
Yes, we do make allowance for physical weakness. But that weakness manifests only because of mental weakness—of your not doing what you know you should do. When you can make your mind obey you, you will find that it will be easy for your mind to compel obedience from your body. In other words, when you can lift your mind and its thoughts wholly away from self and its petty personal concerns
