Where is faith?

Faith—Where is faith? 

Despair—Ah, yes; that is there, and desperation too.

It is only the shadows that represent life in this terrible guise. All the while, be the day calm or be it rough, Christ walks beside you, protecting you, and throwing off that which would approach.

The mind may suffer, but picture to yourself the difference between that simile of faith and what is really taking place—

You are not falling—

There is no terrible gap between you and safety. 

You are held by Christ, and if now and again, you feel you are stumbling, then still more is Christ there to steady you, to encourage and to lead you on.

Zodiac, the Christ Messenger

Grow God-consciousness in the mind.

As God-consciousness grows in the mind, so the realisation comes of the great and glorious possibilities which lie before the soul.

Remember that with God's help, you can do it.

Keep the flag high for a little while longer.

Keep the flag high for a little while longer, and then you will find the standard on which it is hung so firmly embedded in the soil that it will not need a steadying hand to hold it.

See the God in it.

God bless you all and gather you under His outspread Wingsthese Wings, which are even as the Great Comforter, embracing all things, both the good and that which could not quite come up to the standard of being goodoverreaching all and beautifying it, so that at last you see the God in it.

So God works out His plans.

So God works out His plans, and so we, as tillers of the soil, by our efforts, bring forth fruit in due season, but before the tree can produce fruit, it has to be cared for, watered and pruned, so that when the time of gathering in arrives, the fruit may be found sound and ripe.

Christ is accessible to all.

Christ is accessible to all. Keep that point clear in your mind. There is no one who has a greater right than another to go to the Father, and sayHelp me! We are, in His sight, His children, without difference, without favour, and without grade.

God always works on straight lines.

It is all so simple, in the sense that God always works on straight lines, that His children are equal in His sight and that He does not bestow upon one that which He withheld from another.

Unlimited, unstinted, with a generosity absolutely inexplicable to us, His gifts lie all around for man to gather up, and if the spirit within was given more of a free hand, those gifts could be attached to each one, and much, much suffering would be saved in consequence.

It should tell us much.

It should tell us much, it should alter our whole conception of things, it should bring home what we have to do, what I have to do, and what all the countless millions have to do in the end, to give, and not to take.

The life of service is the shortest way to God.

What the world calls sacrifice is gain, and nothing else. It should tell you that the gifts, which God bestows far, far outweigh anything that the human mind could hold out. It should show you too that the life of service is the shortest way to God.

God is a Spirit

God is a Spirit. As God is a Spirit, and we are His children, then it follows, without any reserve whatever, that we too are Spirit, because we are of Him.

Use me in Thy service

Love is not love in the sense that we understand it if it is bestowed only on those who love us. The wider, bigger, true conception of that wonderful gift is in sending out love to those who seem outside its range altogether. And it can be done by prayer. By prayer and dedication, you can tear out those last roots of self; you can offer your mind, your will, and your energies to the Father, saying from your very heart—


Use me in Thy service, for I too once was outcast from Thee.

We cannot climb alone.

Those who have sought to climb to God cannot climb alone, they have got to send back strength and courage to those who are lower down.

ALL, ALL IS WELL

Don't let your heart be troubled if things go wrong; don't let the sorrowing thoughts go too deep for those who have passed on. ALL, ALL IS WELL, and separation exists only to that small part, the physical mind, and nothing more. That which belongs to God is linked to them and nothing can sever love or separate your loved ones from you.

Never think that chance plays a part in our lives.

Never think that chance plays a part in our lives, still less with those who wish to find the Master. Know that the plan of our lives is clearly written down, and we, before we took on physical existence, that we, in the spirit, traced the events from the beginning unto the close.

The Little Seed

Out of the little seed of endeavour grows that great tree of achievement.

Into the Brightness of His Love

In God's sight, the gathering of one lonely soul into the brightness of His love counts, with Him, the same as if you could send your message far and wide.

What does God say about strength?

Set your will on the strength, which is of God, and you will find, however hard the enemy may attack, however diligently it may tear to pieces that which has been put together with so much effort, however destructive these forces may be, the Great Constructor can repair all damage, and instead of the attack causing weakness to the foundation, by your very resistance, it will be made doubly strong.
