The Inner Life

THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE | JUNE 1934

If God is All in all, then He is all that you are; it is His Life, His Consciousness, His Nature that makes up what you call your body and your life, and it therefore would be impossible for any disease or imperfection to be in the body or life. It must be then that this disease and imperfection is a false idea or picture that you are carrying around in your consciousness which thinks itself separate from God’s Consciousness, when that could not possibly be, if His Mind and Consciousness is all that there is.

Therefore, begin today and know the truth, and see instead of that false picture the perfect neck and body that must house the Life, Consciousness and Nature of God. Did not Jesus call it a Holy Temple? Then keep it Holy, by not allowing anymore of such untrue thoughts about it to enter your mind.

YOUR TRUST MUST BE PERFECT

WE HAVE read carefully all that you say and will tell you of our impressions regarding it. First, if you really trusted God fully, and despite appearances you had left everything in His hands, refusing to borrow because you knew He could supply you with everything you needed, you would have found at the last moment He would have brought to you the funds needed—this only, however, if your trust in Him had been perfect and unquestioning. Nevertheless, you were helped out, but not yet having attained to that perfect love and trust, you are still confronted with a similar problem.

Can you not see that these things will keep on coming to you until you attain that fearless and confident knowing that God is your sure supply and your sufficiency in all things? But of course that cannot come so long as there is the least fear, doubt, worry or concern about it. The little book, The Way Out, contains everything needed for one who is determined to prove every truth in it. But for those who have not yet come to that stage where they can make themselves do what they know they should do, we have prepared the new Way Out Course, pamphlet describing which you have received by this time.

Remember, nothing comes to us in life but for our good, even though it appears to be the opposite. Therefore, our purpose is to help you uncover the good from what appears to be bad and then to take possession of it and let all else drop. By this we mean that we have shown you the good that can be gained from this experience of lack and limitation you are going through, if you will do your part.

Your dream is a perfect illustration of what we have been trying to tell you. You were down in a deep dark mine (of trouble), but you began climbing out of it, and while the heights above seemed very steep and almost impossible to climb, there was a man (your Higher Self) with outstretched arms encouraging you to keep on climbing, telling you that you could make it.

Therefore, as in your dream, have no fear of the danger ahead, but just know that you can do it—for did you not finally reach the top and fall in the arms of the Beloved One awaiting you, Who made you feel so happy about the outcome—a definite promise of what will result in this our problem, if you will do as in the dream—keep on climbing and trusting.
