Mind Power

Believe and Have

Nothing can be denied to the children of God if they believe ...

Open up the doors of a greater belief in the power of the self within and greater power will be extended to you. Believe and have. It truly is a simple rule, but the secret is to really believe. Just to say so is not enough. We must feel it, must know it and make it a part of our very lives.  

Whatever it may be that is desired to come into the life may be attained if we but believe -- and please note, I say anything. Nothing can be denied to the children of God if they believe enough and, of course, work at it enough to help themselves to bring about their fond desires.  

All desires are possible or they could not exist.

Patterns of Life

Everyone is different from another and everyone has his own pattern of life to follow. 

 

There is a pattern to each life. One that he alone fits. We are not all keyed to the same things. Some can live in any environment and it will not adversely affect them, while others who have not established an inner armor of protection from adverse influences, cannot as yet do so. Everyone is different from another and everyone has his own pattern of life to follow.  

Wherever our strong desires lead us that is where life is endeavoring us to be. Whatever we strongly desire, if it is good, then of course, we eventually may receive if our desires lead us to work for it strongly enough.  

Our life is ours alone and we alone are responsible for what it brings out in us and in others through our efforts and desires. 

We may desire something for another that actually does not belong to him; that is to say, it is not for him to want it or even be ready for, and so no matter how we feel about it, it cannot become manifest until that person or [those] persons are ready to receive it.   

Whatever we have attained in life in whatever way, we have earned or it would not be ours, or at least it would only be ours for a very short period at best. So we know we receive through desire and through worth and that is just.

Unfolding Life’s Possibilities

 

 Whatever way we help others along life’s road we help ourselves for it is a law.

 

Each one unfolds his possibilities in life as he aspires and, in turn, is inspired by the good thoughts and efforts towards benefits for others as well as for himself.  One, you see, is not possible without the other for if you seek to help those around and about you who are in need, you help yourself.  

The need may not be in a material way, it may be entirely physical or spiritual -- maybe only a smile or a kind word. Whatever way we help others along life’s road we help ourselves for it is a law. God’s laws are not mocked. They are continually in operation, and justice is always being meted out in some form or another.  

We are often given trials in order that we may unfold more. There is always purpose behind all that happens to us.  

Life is not a hit-or-miss proposition; it is never a matter of sheer luck or good fortune that one prospers over another. No, it is whatever is needed for the individual in order that he may unfold spiritually to a greater degree and be a step higher on the spiritual ladder of life. This cannot be unless we desire it. To desire this means greater growth and ways will open whereby we can receive to a greater degree that which we need for unfoldment.

Life’s Earnings

 We are all in life’s classroom to learn the lessons assigned to us, and we hope we learn well and are promoted to a higher grade of spiritual endeavor. 

 

All sincere desire is a kind of prayer and our aspirations ascend to be read by those in the higher realm of life, that, if possible, they may be worked out to bring about our desires. Of course, not all desires are good and not all are possible to come into manifestation for there are times when it would not be to our best interests. 

We receive only what we truly earn and really need for our growth into a more spiritual being, and although there are those who seemingly have much undeserved material riches, it is only because we cannot see and cannot know the true inner life of such people. Nor is that always the answer for there are also the past incarnations which show a great need perhaps for the entity to express in his way and thereby be given a chance to see how he will work it all out.   

Nothing is gained without some sort of a struggle, be it material or spiritual. We are all in life’s classroom to learn the lessons assigned to us, and we hope we learn well and are promoted to a higher grade of spiritual endeavor.  We all are trying or sinking further into the mire of materialism.

Needed Limits

Here, on this plane, we cannot ever fully understand even ourselves and it is better so for the soul growth.

 

To be understood is often greatly desired by those on the earth plane of life, but, in truth, no one really can be wholly understood except by himself, and many times he also deceives himself.

If we were truly understood and our motives and desires were revealed for all to see and know, we might be even more disliked than perhaps we feel we are at the present time.  

It is better that we are not understood entirely on this plane of life. Utter chaos might be the result when we could see revealed the envy, the jealousy, the pride, the hatred, the ruthless ambition to succeed at all costs and the desire to overpower and to suppress that which others may have obtained.  No, it would not do, and we would feel it is a hopeless cause to try to change all the low, evil emotions that people on this plane of life are expressing.  

In some rare cases people outgrow these lower feelings. In this way we evolve to a better and higher understanding of life and its motives and of the people with whom we live and contact in many ways.   

Here, on this plane, we cannot ever fully understand even ourselves and it is better so for the soul growth.
