Mind Power

Peace Within

 What is ardently desired is possible to achieve, but one must first have peace within himself ...

 

Peace is within the grasp of all people and all truly want peace whether or not the realization of this is there. What is ardently desired is possible to achieve, but one must first have peace within himself before it can be expressed outwardly. This truth is always evident in all departments of being.

In other words, what we believe we are exists for us and becomes manifest to us in our world, our environment. If we are within at peace, in perfect harmony of mind and body, expressing health, plenty and, paramount of all, love, we are then peace. Heaven, the kingdom of God, is within and we outwardly express the conditions of our within (our minds) at all times. 

If we desire to express greater happiness, love, peace, or whatever we need at the time, we must believe, must know we can change conditions that now may exist into greater potentials for our life by thought. 

Thoughts are things, and have power, great power, so we must only let in those thoughts that have the powers we need and want to better express our life upon this earth plane.

We must work at it constantly until it becomes habit and then we are the expression in life we have believed and desired. Act as if you have it now, believe it and make it so and it will be manifested unto you.

Please the Inner Man

 To do that which we know is right and to self-approve all we do is to be really successful.

 

We all should listen to the still small voice within that in the quiet can and does give counsel to us when it is needed, if we but heed and listen. This is the voice of conscience and of God, one and the same.

We must not think of God in some far away place for that is not so, he is within each one of us. To know this and to give heed to this is to have success in all we may undertake to do.   

To others it may appear that we have anything but success, but that is because they do not know and cannot realize that every step along the way is a success of sorts. We may never win the fickle plaudits of the world at large, but if we please the world and please not the self within, that is not success.

We must please in every way the inner man, the God-power within us. We must have perfect faith that this is possible and we can do it. We must banish all fear, all negation. Dare and do for this, and this alone, means success in life. To do that which we know is right and to self-approve all we do is to be really successful.   

Act only for the good, knowing you have the approval of the conscience within. Fear not the consequences, but know this. From this stems happiness and self-esteem.

Our Desires

 

Everyone’s destiny cannot be just as we would desire it, of necessity we all must vary and our lives go often in very different grooves. 

 

We all carry within us desires, hopes, fears, frustrations, ambitions, et cetera, some of which cannot be realized or brought into manifestation. Our fears, of course, we do not want manifested and yet we all do harbor some fears; it seems to be a part of the human element and something we must work out ourselves.  

Our ambitions, hopes and desires are many times manifested for us, but there are some desires, notably those involving others that, through conflicting ideas, cannot become manifested for us. 

For instance, if we strongly hope and desire for a person to be near us and to always want to be nearby, it may conflict strongly with the other person’s desires. They may desire the opposite thing and, of course, then this cannot bring about the manifestation of that particular desire. 

Everyone’s destiny cannot be just as we would desire it, of necessity we all must vary and our lives go often in very different grooves. Whatever happens is for the best and often is the only way for true growth of character.

Accept all the good things that can be and are being constantly manifested for you, but always keep in mind that the rights and desires of others may run counter to yours and therefore cannot be outwardly manifested. But all is good or lesser good and all is truly constant change.

The Light of Wisdom

If man were imbued with more love of fellow travelers on the road of life, regardless of race, color or creed and freed from the slavery of self-enrichment, this world would be rid of war and all threats of war.

 

Many on this earth plane of life need the light of wisdom desperately and know it not. Some in high places in the government and in the influential places of life need it even more than the so-called masses. 

If man were imbued with more love of fellow travelers on the road of life, regardless of race, color or creed and freed from the slavery of self-enrichment, this world would be rid of war and all threats of war. It is only where darkness exists in the mind of man that allows these terrible ideas to be a threat to mankind.  

We are all children of God, all on varied rungs of the ladder of evolvement and all traveling the path of greater enlightenment. To help one another along the way is one of the great privileges of this earth’s pathway to light, or wisdom. 

But many wrap themselves in the cocoon of ignorance and prejudice, feeling they are superior so they will have to go on in the life in error until such a time as they awaken to the fact that all is life, the same life, and all is of God and all going ever onward to greater light in the world. Many will not step out of their own little ruts of wrong thinking until some great catastrophe forces them to do so.  

We must expand our thoughts to encompass the greater good of all, not just the privileged few.

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.
