ll sense of separateness by living continually in the
realization of this oneness, not only will our bodily ills and
weaknesses vanish, but all limitations along all lines.
Then "delight thyself in the Lord, and He shall give thee the desires
of thine heart." Then will you feel like crying all the day long, "The
lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly
heritage." Drop out of mind your belief in good things and good events

best is good enough for one with a heritage so royal as yours.

THE SECRET, POWER, AND EFFECTS OF LOVE.
This is the Spirit of Infinite Love. The moment we recognize ourselves
as one with it we become so filled with love that we see only the good
in all. And when we realize that we are all one with this Infinite
Spirit, then we realize that in a sense we are all one with each other.

God within. We thus look only for the good, and we find it. It always

realization of the subtle powers of the thought forces, we can quickly
see that the moment we entertain any thoughts of hatred toward another,
he gets the effects of these diabolical forces that go out from us, and
has the same thoughts of hatred aroused in him, which in turn return to
the sender. Then when we understand the effects of the passion, hatred
or anger, even upon the physical body, we can see how detrimental, how
expensive this is. The same is true in regard to
