Resurrection

We are constant weavers of destiny and there is no escape for us from the destiny we have chosen for ourselves. 

 

“I am the Resurrection and the Life.” What is the inner meaning of this profound statement? 

To resurrect is to once again bring into eternal life from a mortal life; to shed the material body for the spiritual body, to lift out of oneself into a higher state of being. All this, self-done through the laws of the Father God, ever present, ever powerful, ever loving.

The life is eternal and is eternal now, but is always changing, evolving from the inner man. His thoughts resolve into actions and so the law works and we grow outwardly and inwardly. Change being the order of the day with life and growth from what we are now to what we constantly hold in the mind as our controlling thought which gradually evolves into manifestation, and so it continues. 

We are constant weavers of destiny and there is no escape for us from the destiny we have chosen for ourselves. We are, of course, influenced by our circumstances and those of others about us, but, by and large, our circumstances conform to our thought and expectations of good or ill that we entertain.

Keep control of the thought life and keep happy, positive thoughts in your mind.

Spiritual Poverty

There is a poverty of the spirit that transcends that of poverty of material possessions and many of the earth plane of life have such poverty. 

 

There is a poverty of the spirit that transcends that of poverty of material possessions and many of the earth plane of life have such poverty. They do not realize it, of course, for their sense of values are warped and they perceive only the material, knowing nothing of spiritual values.  

When they do awaken to the real state of affairs, and often this is not until they reach the spiritual world, they suddenly find they have been following the wrong path of life and instead of growing in the light they have been wallowing in the darkness. It is sad then to see their plight, and to feel the remorse, the regrets for what might have been had they not been so blind to the real values life has to offer them. 

Such people certainly go through a form of mental hell for the realization is brought home to them that only in the material plane of life can they recover and go on in the light.  

While in the Spiritual realms they can be made to understand their lack and to go to schools where true values are taught and where they can learn better. In actual practice they must again go through experiences [on earth] that will give them the opportunity to grow out of their evil ways and to extend their knowledge in a practical manner.   

For although the Spiritual realm offers much to them, they cannot go forward there until they have redeemed themselves from the life of material selfishness, greed, revenge and all the evil influences that cause the spirit to be in such poverty, lacking the love, the peace, the strength and power that alone comes with spiritual growth and brings one into the higher life of the Spirit when such a person is ready to enter the Spiritual realm of life.

Experiences

Every experience should be looked upon as good for each is needed for the growth of the soul.

 

Each one on the earth plane, and everywhere in fact, is different one from the other, even so-called identical twins. 

No one has the same needs, nor the same outlook in life nor the same experiences because the requirements of all differ widely, and it is well that this is so. 

Many, of course, do have similar experiences, but the reaction to the experience would differ with each because of the difference in background, thought and feeling. So life is made up of very different lives that come together for a time and then oftentimes are separated by distance or by death (we should say transition). 

Changes come to all as they are needed. Every experience should be looked upon as good for each is needed for the growth of the soul. In time, all will see that this is so. 

We may long for greater closeness of family ties but this too must change and of necessity must expand and grow, and the place for its growth is not always where we would most desire it to be. However, we can change our thought and our feeling about it, creating greater harmony in life by keeping our outlook cheerful. In time, we may find other and more welcome changes that will bring about our fondest dreams. 

We only grow by change and we must adjust our thoughts to it.

Self Belief

Believe, have faith in the self within for you are adequate to all that comes into your life ...

 

The strength, the power, the health-giving thoughts of life are possible for all to have, for all to receive if we but tune in to these positive vibrations. We must first aspire, then we are inspired and life is revealed to us as it never before has been presented. We find our senses are intensified and we respond to outside influences as never before possible.  

Our minds, if so attuned, can act as spiritual antennas attracting to us all the good that we need and desire. Why then do we hold back from such conditions? Only because doubt and fear creep in and possess us when we should and could shut them out of our lives.  

We use what we habitually think, so always remember this truth and act and think according to your best interests and those of others who are in your environment. We shape our own destines daily by our very thoughts and habits of life.

Believe, have faith in the self within for you are adequate to all that comes into your life, and with constructive habits only the good can come.

Nations

Peace must first be desired by the people and must come from within, not from the attainment of material gain. 

 

The destinies of the varied nations of the world are not necessarily the same. Peace, of course, is the aim of all, that all may live without fear in perfect peace to enable the people to attain that to which they are entitled whatever it may be.  

The glorious destiny of the United States of America is one of leadership, a way-shower in the struggle for this goal, but not all nations are so endowed that it is possible to attain this without great internal strife. Peace must first be desired by the people and must come from within, not from the attainment of material gain. 

We of the Spirit World know that peace will ultimately come to the peoples of earth but not without the necessary groundwork, the struggles and, yes, sacrifices of many inspired souls to lead the way.   

The Golden Age of marvels unheard of, undreamed of is at hand and the world will come into a new era with joy, peace and great new inventions to make life more enjoyable for all the people of the earth plane. This is beginning to be felt and the age of opportunity and enlightenment is presenting itself in all its glory to the world for its acceptance. Change is in the very air and Golden Spiritual Awareness will ultimately come to help bring about this change and glorify life for all.

Destiny

 

... the destiny of each one of us is in our own hands ...

 

Destiny is a word fraught with meaning.  Does it, as many think, mean a preordained future, one that is entirely irrevocable? 

No, not in reality, for are we not spoken of as “masters of our fate?”  If this were not so, and we could not ourselves change this, fear would be rampant, and righteously so, for we would be but slaves of fate. No, destiny means much more than that.   

Often the important steps in our life are preordained by us before we are reincarnated here, for we have lessons to learn and rewards or punishments to help us on our way. 

We do not, of course, wish punishment, but justice always prevails and the law of cause and effect is never deterred. So if it becomes necessary to the evolvement of the entity, even punishment is preordained. Overcoming obstacles that are placed in one’s path could be the form of punishment, and in this way we learn and overcome and go on into a higher light (or consciousness).   

This law of progression is ever with us and we can only learn through lessons that are needed by the soul whether they be pleasant experiences or the reverse. However, the destiny of each one of us is in our own hands, and as always we are at the helm and can make or break our ship.

Think Correctly

Think correctly and you will automatically act correctly.

 

All who now manifest on this earth plane of expression in life have lived before and, of course, since there is no death, have always lived for all was, is and ever shall be.

We are not put here to live lives of idleness and luxury, but to grow spiritually and to become more aware of the possibilities of life. We must, in spite of obstacles that are ever present, push on in life growing and ever trying to vibrate on a higher plane of expression.

Earth life is likened to a kindergarten as to the other planes of expression. As we become more enlightened we become aware that this must be so. All are even now on differing planes of thought mentally and that, after all, is the way we truly live for it is only in the mental that we can express in the physical plane of life.   

We think, therefore we are. First thought, then action and, of course, reaction for each action too is creative and brings other actions into being. 

Like the stone thrown into the pool, the circles ever widen and go on and on expressing -- an example to us of what we start in the world of thought and action.

Think correctly and you will automatically act correctly. 

Spring

When there is Spring in the heart there is youth, regardless of years lived.

 

When there is Spring in the heart there is youth, regardless of years lived.

We all on the earth plane add years, and physically our tissues become less elastic; less resilient with the years, but when we keep within an interest in life about us, keep busy with things that we like to do and continue to use love in our dealings with those about us, then indeed we are still in the Springtime of life no matter what our calendar age.

Our minds rule us, although most people do not realize this and blame their shortcomings on circumstances beyond their control, or even on people with whom they live or contact in other ways. But, in truth, we are the sum total of our thought and ours alone. 

It is our responsibility to make ourselves strong, courageous, truth-loving, happy, free and loving, and in doing so we enrich our life and keep our youth. Also, we must keep enthusiastic about life and the wonderful possibilities ever surrounding us. 

We have just as much chance for happiness as we do for its opposite and, with gratitude in our hearts for life’s golden chances, we should go on until the last knowing we are our destiny.

Master Plan

 

 

 There are no accidental successes or failures in life. It is all as we ourselves decree and must be worked out by the self within.

 

There is a master plan for each and every one of us and we are even now unfolding and working for this plan and towards a wonderful goal.  

We are, of course, masters of our own destiny and receive from the laws of being our rewards and our punishments through this law of cause and effect. Many do not see that this is so and feel that justice is not done, but in every case it is, although it may not be detected by us on the earth plane of existence.

We are constantly receiving and constantly causing others to receive through our efforts. In many cases, of course, the reverse is true. Many are losing out in the battle of life simply because of past injustice that they have meted out to others.  

You see it is all taken care of and we cannot really judge another because we do not see the whole picture. Therefore we cannot know all the causes of his or her seeming failures or difficulties in the life. 

Many suffer because of the injustice of others, but eventually their good will come to them if they are deserving of it. Many, you know, will only learn through their troubles. In good times they feel it is only their just due and fail to give gratitude for their worldly goods and their gifts of talent or whatever they have developed. They themselves are responsible for both their troubles and their good although it is often very hard to see that this is so. 

There are no accidental successes or failures in life. It is all as we ourselves decree and must be worked out by the self within.

There are also times when seemingly all we do is right and brings to us all we could desire in life. This is because we have earned this or it would not be. 

Everything works well for those who work in the light and keep themselves in the light of God and prepare to work out their lives with this as their goal in life.

Observations

All that comes to us is earned in some way.

 

The power to be what we desire to be lies within us. You and I and all people are what we think for the prevailing thoughts are manifested in the physical. So one can see from the expression on a person’s face, and from the eyes in particular, what he or she dwells on in their thought life. 

I do not actually mean by this that you can read the thoughts but, if observant you can at least tell whether their thoughts are optimistic or the opposite, or whether there is some resentment, suspicion, envy, jealousy, or love and its component parts. Sympathy, a form of love, is also often detected by the observant person. Now these thoughts are very real and each one brings its subsequent reaction whether or not this is known to be so. And so is wrought our very destiny, for that which is strongly believed tends to be so.   

There is no such thing as luck or accidental good fortune or the opposite. All that comes to us is earned in some way. We may see some supposedly good person who runs into trouble through his own doing or because another makes his life miserable. Do you suppose that this is an accident of fate? No, it is not! It is either willed by the involved person or he draws it to himself because of the thought life. 

Nothing happens by chance and every problem has its solution even though we may not see it. It is for us to seek it and to correct it and go on from there to greater heights.
