Now, the first step has to be your realization that “the Kingdom of God is within you.” There has to be the realization that whatever of spiritual power is to be brought into your experience, has to be brought in through your own being. Continue reading Attainment Of the Contemplative Life (2/5)
There is not far-off God singling you out for special favors, but there is a God of whom one of our great poets wrote: “Speak to Him thou, for He hears, and Spirit with Spirit can meet. Closer is He than breathing, and nearer than hands and feet.” He is closer to you than breathing, and this God within you, this power, this divine love, this infinite wisdom is ready, as you permit it, to perform all you are given to do.
