Infinite Intelligence

The Intelligence who formed these plans is called God by you for the want of a better name, and by different names by other peoples of the earth.  It matters not by what name, it is still the Infinite Intelligence.

 

We feel that the Heavenly Father is Infinite Intelligence. He is the power which is universal. He is the one who has planned all the wonders of the universe, above, in the air, on the land and in the sea.

In the lands above your sky, it is His plan which is being used and worked with. His plan is the only workable plan for all peoples of the earth and in the Spirit world as well. 

This plan has been made by those who have a far greater intelligence than any who have lived for millions of years. It is this plan which will be followed as long as there is a universe.

He has not made an error in any of His work, the minutest detail has been carried out. He has planned for all creatures of the land, sea and air, and all who inhabit these planes. He has planned for the living and for the so-called “dead.” Through these plans all must work.

The Intelligence who formed these plans is called God by you for the want of a better name, and by different names by other peoples of the earth. It matters not by what name, it is still the Infinite Intelligence. 

This Intelligence had no beginning, has no ending, and always will be. It was always for the good of all and always will be for the good of all. It works wonders and will continue to do so.  

If you were to analyze these so-called wonders and follow them through, you would find they all began from simple beginnings. By these means were built and through them all is the handiwork of Infinite Intelligence.

We are not in this world for ourselves alone. We were put here by this Infinite Intelligence to work and live to the best of our ability. To be reborn and reborn until we are able to go on with this Infinite Intelligence, recognized by us, knowing it is within us. 

With this knowledge, when we pass, we will join the greater Intelligence and go on in the path of greater knowledge to help in this plan of the Infinite Intelligence.

 This is the only successful, working plan that has ever existed and will be the only successful one because it is of Infinite Intelligence and follows all laws. It will always be in the hands of this great Intelligence to see that all are in this plan and work with it if they are to be successful in whatever they attempt to do.  

The laws of the Infinite Intelligence are the only perfect laws and are the laws in The Bible. These laws have been given through the years to all peoples in different forms, but with the same meaning. They will be given through eternity and, if followed as given, will always be successful. It is only when man interferes and tries to change them to suit himself, then they fail.

Infinite Intelligence has planned for all -- simply, perfectly and beautifully.

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.

Doubts

We must always follow our hearts and our heads.

 

There are times in the lives of all of us when doubt creeps in. We wonder what life would have brought forth for us had we done differently, had we made other choices than those we have followed. This is natural and right, but it is also folly for we made the right choice for us regardless of the outcome. If we hadn’t followed this path we would still have doubts for that is part of life.

We must always follow our hearts and our heads. By that, I mean our feelings about a given situation are all important to us and our thoughts that we give forth about it. They may not be correct but they are to us at least, and we need that experience or we would not enter into it. 

Life, of necessity, is filled with doubts, but it is not necessary to keep that state of mind. If and when it comes up in our minds and we wonder what would have been our life had we done differently, we must change that thought and realize that for us we did the right, the correct thing for only in that way and on that path could we learn a needed lesson.  

We must learn to be decisive, to drown our doubts and fears and abide by our choice and be happy with it, knowing that life is eternal and we cannot escape our good nor the evil either that we incur in life. 

To each his own; the choice is ours, and the doubts can go with the shadows of life where they belong.

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.

Gratitude

 

Everyone of us has some blessing that is ours and we should indeed express gratitude to God for what blessings we enjoy.

 

Gratitude expressed is a very wonderful thing and causes the person to be more aware of the great blessings of life. We all, no matter what our position in life, have much to be thankful for.  

Everyone of us has some blessing that is ours and we should indeed express gratitude to God for what blessings we enjoy. When this is done our blessings have a way of being multiplied, perhaps because of our very awareness of their existence.   

So many times people complain and fret and are envious or jealous of others not realizing that they themselves are unique and as equally endowed with blessings, although maybe of not quite such a high caliber. For the law of attraction comes in and attracts to us just what we expect, and, unfortunately, it is not always desired. 

We must expect only the best in order to attract it, and by our life and its thoughts and actions carry out, in the full, our part so that the law may work for us and not against us.

Count your blessings each day and be grateful for you have earned them or they would not be yours to enjoy.

Laws of Life

 

 The most important law, and the one that is so often broken by unseeing man, is the law of love.

Life is, was and ever shall be, for life is spirit and life is all in all, and through all, in every form and in every department of being. At first thought, this may appear to be not true but truth is sometimes more strange than otherwise. Yes, life is all there is and nothing is ever lost. What appears to us to be solid is, in reality, not at all so, for it is formed through myriads of infinitesimal atoms all of which are in constant vibration or motion and held together by the law of attraction and the law of polarity. Both laws, like all laws of nature, are in operation at all times and in all levels of life.

We are all subject to these laws and other perhaps lesser known laws of God. We cannot change them, they are eternal and in operation for our good and the good of all on the earth plane. We hear, we feel, we see, we touch, we smell and all through the laws of God. We live, move, and we participate and are a part of all in all. 

We are able through the power of the free will to keep or to break the laws in operation, but we cannot break them without repercussions of disaster when we are foolish enough to do so. However, it is only in this way that we learn and grow and make of life a worthwhile endeavor.  

The most important law, and the one that is so often broken by unseeing man, is the law of love. This law is the first to bring about our downfall if we cannot make it work for us as it was intended. It is this broken law that causes broken homes, all selfishness, jealousy, envy, pride and so many other errors that cause such tragedy in the human life. Keep this law and you will find all the others will follow.

Evils of Envy

All of us should clean house mentally every so often and take stock of the kind of thought we allow to prevail.

 

To all who harbor jealous or envious thoughts, they should know they have a two-edged sword and that every thought of that nature boomerangs against themselves. 

They have a great lack of faith, these people, and apparently believe in luck and that some people have good fortune while others are unlucky. They do not realize that all their misfortune lies within themselves and has come into manifestation through their thought life and resulting actions -- the laws of cause and effect, and of attraction and repulsion. 

We never have a streak of so-called luck, it is never accidental; nothing is, no matter what the circumstance. All is caused by law or the breaking of established law and nothing can change that.

The greatest of all laws is the law of love. It will bring to us all good if we follow it in our lives. 

How little and how short-sighted are those who cannot see that by their jealous thoughts they hurt, not others as much but their own lives. It is like a poison that corrupts and corrodes and causes illness and many undesirable conditions in the lives of those who unwisely harbor such thoughts. 

All of us should clean house mentally every so often and take stock of the kind of thought we allow to prevail. If it is not constructive and positive and good, sweep it out just as you would dirt that is in your home.

Negative Thoughts

 

The penalty for thoughts of envy, jealousy, resentment or kindred thoughts is not at all pleasant to contemplate. 

 

The penalty for thoughts of envy, jealousy, resentment or kindred thoughts is not at all pleasant to contemplate. Those who harbor these thoughts (and bear in mind that thoughts are things) will inevitably reap what they have sown. They reap the whirlwind unless they realize before it is too late just what they are doing to themselves.

Undoubtedly our thoughts are many times sensed by others who are sensitive to that degree, but many times they go awhile undetected. However, in time, the law of attraction, working as it does for or against a person, comes to the fore and brings to the person involved more of its kind. In other words we attract more of the things that are undesirable or downright negative because of the thoughts that are harbored. 

If an individual feels that someone is intensely envious, jealous or in some way resents them and detects those feelings, it is best to keep as far away from that individual as it is possible to be for we are often inadvertently affected by these thoughts if sensitive enough, and, by their very nature, they can and do make us unhappy, distressed and in every way disturbed by them. 

So we would say steer clear until the individual concerned comes to her senses and realizes what is occurring, for it cannot do anyone any good to go into that atmosphere knowing that it brings about feelings of this nature. She is only harming herself and to such an extent that it is hard to realize. No one can long harbor such thoughts without having them manifest adversely, bringing more of their own kind, for like attracts like and no good can come from such attitudes.

Do not seek to show such persons the light for they are not, in their present state, ready for it and would only further resent you. Keep apart and use prayer and hope that time will make the cure.

Divine Order

We bring into effect all we have, all we desire, all we suffer through. 

 

There is a divine order in the world about us that is not changed by any outward happenings whatever they may be. The unjust, the jealous, the envious, the cruel all are, in reality, hurting themselves although on the surface it seems as though only the victims suffer.  

This law underneath, or shall we say not visible or tangible to people, is always at work and though we may think we are escaping, the inexorable laws of life are such that actually punishment is instantaneous although unrecognized in most instances. We bring into effect all we have, all we desire, all we suffer through. Cause, and eventually we have the effect.   

We have much power, much ability to change our lives, to bring about whatever we desire if we live right and think right. Of course, if we do not think correctly, we will not act correctly for action follows thought. And we react from the thoughts of others too unless we are strong enough to act and not let adverse action or thoughts affect us in any way.

These laws are many and in all departments of life so although we think sometimes that people get away with a lot, in reality, they get away with nothing. Time and these laws of life are always in control.
