GOD, THE ONE POWER AND ONE SUPPLY
I HAVE before me the article on “Helping Others—the Method,” in the October issue of the magazine. Only once have I felt it necessary to use that method. Needless to say, it worked immediately.
But what I wish to tell you is, when I first heard the Impersonal Life it seemed I absorbed the idea thoroughly that “God is All in all,” so that when someone asks, “Will you help so and so?” I answer yes. But in reality I do not; I just say, “God is in them as well as in me. So He within them will do with them as He chooses.” Then I forget them.
The friends report sometimes of instantaneous healings. But I do not feel even impressed; I just KNOW God could and did do it. So it was no credit to me.
I did not even use mental power. If they come to me personally, as they sometimes do, I often have little down and I gently massage them. But I do not think of them or their supposed ailment—I just talk on and on about their immediate relief. So again I do not help even mentally. I know that through my knowing the truth for them, God can now reach them and do the healing.
My children always say, “Mother, give me a treatment.” And I reply for them either to run and play or to go to bed, if it is night; and they are all right. Now am I one of those mentally lazy ones, I wonder?
I regret to have to admit, notwithstanding all this, that I am one of the many who have had to fall on the County for support; but I know when my lesson is learned here I will find work somewhere, somehow. I am glad to know the Father is still my Supply, and it is for Him to choose my channels of support. And we are all well cared for.
No, you are not one of the lazy ones, but you are one of the fortunate few, who when first presented with the idea of God being All in all instantly recognized its mighty truth, and therefore able to accordingly—seeing Him in all things and in all people. You were able even to see Him in yourself—partially, as your life, as healing Power, and as your loving protection; but for some reason you have not accepted Him as your personal Power and as your personal Supply. Can you not see that if He can heal others through you, by your knowing Him as that Power, thus supplying them with what life they need, He can as easily supply you with anything you need, whether it be physical, mental or financial need? He being All in all things and in all people? God is not merely your and every one’s life and consciousness, He is ALL they are, and therefore can and will supply all—if you but likewise know it.
