“Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it." —SONG OF SOLOMON 8:7     "We must have a firm conviction that all people live in God, and we must have a deep realization that we are all One in this Universal Spirit that is God. There is a place where we begin and leave off physically, but there is no place where we begin and leave off mentally or spiritually. Our minds merge with the minds of others, and as they meet, some silent force within us attracts or repels automatically in accord with our accepted thought patterns. If we do not merge with others in cooperation, in unity, and in happiness, we may be certain that there is something in us that feels it has been rebuffed or rejected. Here is where an adjustment has to be made.

If you want sunshine, step out into the sunshine. If you have locked yourself away in a dark closet, why not come out into the light? If you have been feeling that everything is against you and no one really cares for you, know that God is in everyone, and meet the God in others. See what happens. If you think that all the fears and failures and hurts you have been carrying around for years are something over which you have no control, come to realize that you are born out of Life. The thing that entered into you when you were born was God, the living Spirit. You are One with everything because you are One with God. Recognizing this truth, you can go forth to meet joy and love.”
