Salient Thought
for the Day
Even a little spark of holy aspiration will transform our heart and mind and make them capable of higher thought and feeling.
Lines
to Memorize
When pure Spirit shines who sees it?
Few, yea, only a very few!
For not many have the seeing eye.
Many see the light of the sun, the moon, the far-distant stars
And the light of yon road-side lamp;
But only the pure heart with the eye of love
Can see the light that shineth from pure Spirit.
Lesson
If we are spiritual, we cannot be less capable in any direction. We have greater capacity for loving God, we are able to love our fellow-beings more: we have clearer vision and greater power. Too often we are afraid to take interest in big things because we do not wish to let go of the small; yet in that bigger thing we find the smaller included. Our life is always enriched by higher aspiration.
Prayer
All-radiant One, out of Your compassion, kindle in my heart a new fire of holy aspiration.
Clarify my sight that I may gain new vision.
Cleanse my mind that I may perceive Your Presence in all things
And dedicate myself with new ardor to Your service.
