them His will for them and what He wants them to do.
You can help in no better way at this time, when so many are fearful and greatly concerned about what is to happen to the world, than to turn them to God and help them to place all their faith and trust in Him, leaving the fighting and the aggressive part to those who by nature can find an outlet no other way. There are always plenty of such who have not yet come under the guidance of the Loving Christ within.
THE HUMAN SIDE
Regarding the problem you mention, it is only natural that you should desire a home, a wife and a family. That is the human side of your nature and that human side will always seek to express itself, which is but right and natural. No one can tell you what is best for you. But there is One—your own Higher Self—Who knows what is best and has planned from the beginning to do only what is best for your spiritual ongoing, your human self being but the medium He uses to further that end.
Therefore, rest in this assurance, that if you are to marry and have a home, you will be led to just the one who is to be your helpmate and you will know that she is the one. You will not need to look around or search for her. She will be brought to you when all is ready. So if you can realize the truth of this and will place it all in the hands of the All-wise and All-loving One within, everything will be arranged in proper and natural sequence.
THE IMPERSONAL WORK
You can now see that all of your past life has been a preparation for this Work of which you have become a part, and you have learned that It is not of the earth, but of the Spirit; but that It will soon be fully brought down from the Spirit when Its activities will become the activities of the earth; for It will bring with It a new heaven and a new life. Its outer representatives are but preparing the way for that day and that life. Strive therefore, dear friend, to come into the full realization of this that you will be enabled to do fully your part. Your outer instrument is what you must work with now until its human mind clearly realizes all that We and You teach it from now on.
The thrills that you felt when first reading The Impersonal Life and the First Paper were but the recognizing of your soul of that which you had come here to find and to do.
