Salient Thought
for the Day
We are redeemed by knowledge of our innate Divine heritage.
Lines
to Memorize
Naught exists but the empty shadows and sounds of this material world,
That promiseth much, but beareth no fruit,
For it hath a barren heart.
I will not turn to it now that Thou hast opened my sight of understanding.
Lesson
The remedy for outwardness is for us to learn from what we have come. We must all have direct consciousness of our Source. Others are not redeemed when we remind them of their imperfections. Our life must always be unproductive so long as we turn our attention to outward things. The only way we can find the blending harmony in a harsh discordant world is by finding something else; and that something is not outside, it is within.
Prayer
You, who are the embodiment of all blessing,
Make my life fruitful and rich in blessing to others.
Help me never to seek happiness in the outward world,
But to turn within for all my joy and strength.
Open my eyes to the inward beauty.
Open my ears to the inward voice.
