Mankind, from the very beginning, has asked:
Who, what, and where is God?
These questions first arise from the lips of a little child, just learning to speak the names of father and mother. And they continue—echoing through the years.

Who made you? Who made me? Who made the earth, the moon, the sun, the stars?
The answer comes simply: God.

But then, inevitably: Who made God?
Does the answer ever come?
Does humanity ever receive a response that truly satisfies?

Each man, each woman, must answer for themselves.
For only the mind of God can fully know God.
If you have found God within your own mind and within your own soul, then you have found your own answers.

So let us remember:
When we try, in our human way, to describe God with words, we speak only in syllables of a child’s language — grasping faintly at the infinite.

Key Thought: "I'm not responsible."
How frequently do we hear this said about situations that have gone wrong or plans that have gone bad? It is usually coupled with, "I don't know why things never work out for me."
Can we shelve the responsibility for conditions, situations and events in our lives?
Not really, for this is the price we all pay for our freedom, or what we call Free Will. Freedom, in itself, does not guarantee that Life will be smooth sailing, because perfect freedom allows a large share of mistakes to creep in, and every mistake carries with it a consequence. Notice I said consequence, not a punishment.

Responsibility arises, not in the result, but in the original mistake because that was where we exercised our freedom, our choice, our free will.
Life, being the Loving Giver that it is, gave us exactly what we believed it would! The responsibility for that choice was ours alone. Instead of declining to accept the responsibility for our freedom, we should be happy in that freedom and determined to make only those choices which are beneficial to us, our families, and the world around us.
We can start by believing that God has our best interests involved, and stop berating ourselves.
See failures and mistakes as a signpost that enables us to choose a better way to a greater good.
This reveals the point of our responsibility, and we can from this moment move forward, basking in the freedom and accomplishment which is ours.
The inner call is always to attempt, to strive, to dare, and if we stumble perhaps it was because we did not make a responsible choice, but WE CAN!

Affirm Now: "God's Goodness and Intelligence are
moving in, through and around me. I am bathed in an atmosphere of infinite possibilities for grander and greater expression. I accept the responsibility for my Life and choices, here and now, and move toward the accomplishment of my choices.
All of God's Love and guidance directs me and my Life, past failures and mistakes are meaningless in my new choice. I am responsible and I choose responsibly.”

Key Thought: Who senses peace without peace within himself?

Peace is at the very center of our being. If we will give ourselves only to the creative thoughts of goodness and beauty, we shall create only goodness and beauty. Concentration upon these things leaves no room for turmoil. Confusion creates only its own kind. Peace is the infinite potential of all creation. "Acquaint now thyself with Him and be at peace, thereby great good shall come to thee." (Job 22:21)

Affirm Now: "In the knowledge that peace is at the very center of my being, I still know all discordant thoughts, all disturbing reactions to persons, places and things. God is the source of my creative action, and God knows only peace, harmony and joy. I now allow these attributes to become supreme in my Life, and my affairs know tranquility and peace.”

Key Thought: "Where are you?"

Every individual has a place in life. That place may be his true place where he expresses happiness, health and prosperity, where his life is fulfilled, or it may be his right place, the place where he may learn one of life's special lessons. In fact, it may be the school for the greatest lesson he can learn, one that will show him his true place. True place, then, is the solution attained, the salvation realized, the fulfill-ment experienced. Anything less than this is RIGHT place, Life endeavoring to call our attention to the need for greater wisdom and understanding. It is a call to experience more love by releasing the resentment which clouds our view, a call to achieve a higher status by utilizing the talents we possess. The feeling of unhappiness might well be changed if we give another the opportunity to be happy through some action of our own. These are some of the lessons we learn in our right place.We hold our place because we feel comfortable in it, or because we fear change. Nothing can improve without change. Therefore, when we are unprepared to make this vital move, we are holding ourselves in the place that is right for us, because we have declared it so! The very fact that there is something better we can experience proves the desire of Life to give more to us, and brings the awareness that we can accept a true place with its sense of completion and wholeness. We need to stop looking at others, blaming them for our failures, shortcomings and mistakes. Life is reminding us, "You are in your right place, do you not want to get out of it? Would you rather be in your true place?"

Affirm now: "I alone can occupy my true place. In all
the universe no one can do that for me. Life desires that I do it, and seeks to set me on the road to fulfillment, abundance and joy. I now accept the guidance of Divine Intelligence, directing me to happiness, health and prosperity-my true place. Neither person, place nor thing can keep me from that which is my own. I revel in my true place now.”

"Man is the revelation of the Infinite, and it does not become finite in him. It remains Infinite."
~Mark Rutherford.

Key Thought: Are we experiencing lack?
Do problems arise in our lives with somewhat monotonous regularity?
Does Life always seem to be giving the 'sweets' to some, but not to us?
This, then, is the limit we are mentally placing upon our own potential! We have restricted it to the point of repetition, for our experience will never proceed beyond our capacity to mentally envision something more beautiful, more beneficial, and more creative in our lives.
The expression of God throughout His Creation must always be Infinite Good, for this is the very nature of God. We alone limit the expression, and give to everything a definite value thus reducing the potential by lack of understanding that God's creative expression is without end. .
Let us always remember, "Man is the revelation of the Infinite Good." We have a distinct purpose here, namely, to bring the Infinite God into expression and form, and to assist in the constant action of Life.
We need to free ourselves of the limiting past, always seeking to learn more about ourselves. Freedom from past mistakes, fears and guilt, is the only way in which we can move into the promise of the future.

Affirm now: "I now release every sense of guilt and fear. Mistakes have been made, but they are experiences for learning. God is seeking to use me now as a Perfect Expression of Infinite Life. I feel a new sense of belonging, a new sense of participation. The Infinite seeks to use me, and Its action through me raises my own level of experience. All Good is mine now, I let it be.”

Key Thought: Inharmony is the result of worry, not the cause of it. How many times we hear people say, “If only conditions would change, I would not worry so”, or, “I'm worried because some physical Inharmony persists”, showing that we think that the condition comes first. How often we have said, “ God is Infinite Divine Intelligence”. Intelligence is an attribute of the Mind. This is a world of Mind, and all conditions, whether harmonious or inharmonious arise from the mental attitude. How One sees or hears something, and immediately there is a mental reaction. This mental reaction, if very strong, is a demand upon the Mind, and the Mind responds through some mysterious process, building that mental reaction into an experience. If the reaction has been One of fear or hatred or strong resistance, the experience will be uncomfortable. It may be merely a cold, or it may be One of a number of things, and it may be in your body or your affairs. If the reaction is a happy One, there will come a sense of well-being, and confidence.

I AFFIRM: God is in His world, and even though I do not always understand, I can trust; I can keep a wholesome attitude.
Study: John 10:27-30, Psalms 91

Key thought: “The life in me is God in me”
What a thought! We know that God never fails; that God is never stagnant, never tired, never discouraged, never sluggish. Accepting joyfully the statement, “ The Life in me is God in me”, I feel excited, brand new, free, and tireless.
If a thought of “negativity or tired” presents itself, I will remind myself that there is no such thing. If a thought of weakness tempts me, I will rejoice that in GOD there is no weakness at all, and that God’s Life is my Life, for there is no other Life.
In this life, which is the activity of God, there can be no negative thoughts, no disease. Why then, do I feel inharmony in my body and my affairs? Because you think of iriharmony. You believe in Inharmony. The thoughts you think, which are the activity in the mind, are the demands I make upon God 's activity, and they become visible to me, but the only “Life” they have is the thinking we do. But as I keep uppermost in my thought that God is my Life, and remember that that my Life is the activity of all that God is, I cannot entertain negative thoughts, I no longer entertain Inharmony because God is my life and my Life is God's Life

I AFFIRM: “The Life in me is God in me”

Key Thought: My greatest joy is to improve myself and the conditions about me. Every day may be a fresh adventure in the process of creating a better and more harmonious world within myself and without my surroundings. With this high purpose I face today. If I am alert, it may be full of opportunities to act creatively, to give love, to bring cheer and encouragement to others, to smooth out rough places, to make working conditions more ideal, to look forward to an improved future, to radiate energy, good-nature and helpfulness every moment, and above all to keep myself up to the top-notch of efficiency in thinking out ways in which everything I touch may be bettered. This is an attitude toward life which I would establish for I believe it to be the very heart of creative thinking and surely the source of happiness. But if I am merely aware of a deep desire for self-improvement without being at the same time equally aware that I have power within my mind by which I may bring these ideals to pass, life will be full of dissatisfaction and unrest. But there is such a power within my mind; it is the creative power of thought, whose declarative action has been called "The Word."
I AFFIRM: I am resolved to declare the perfect order in every situation which faces me today, by speaking the image of perfection.

Key Thought: I am not a puppet evolved by a half-blind Fate, but a freely initiating part of the very Creative Intelligence which has been and still is unfolding the world order. Natural Science has shown me that this body of mine is the product of an evolutionary process. There have been those who have described this process in such mechanistic terms that one might almost believe the Creative Process to have been altogether fortuitous, and man a more or less accidental product of blindly operating law. What seems to lend reasonableness to such an interpretation? Is it not the fact that we see so many thousands of people about us tied to the soil and to the material order, wholly the victims of materialistic laws? But, let us look closer. May it not be that such people are in the process of evolution? Is it not possible that they have not attained the consciousness of the higher uses of their own evolving minds? Once let such people glimpse the fact that through right thought, “Man is the maker of his own destiny,” and they are free. If under experimentation this idea should prove to be true, I shall no longer be bound by my objective world order but shall create new conditions by pouring them out from within myself under that declarative Law of God, the Word.

I AFFIRM: I am master of my own destiny through learning the use of God's Law of Mind.
Study: Ps. 46:10 John 15:11

Key Thought: “Keep thy heart with diligence for out of it are the issues of life.” This is one of the profoundest statements in the whole Bible. Psychologically, it voices a literal truth. We may talk as much as we please about “guarding our thoughts'* and “allowing only constructive thoughts** to occupy the mind; the patent fact is that nobody does it or can do it who has not gone one step further back and watched his emotions, his feelings about self, others, and life in general. Psychology has shown us clearly that the most powerful associative process is emotional association. That is, the next idea which literally “pops** up into your mind without so much as “by your leave** is one suggested bp pcur feeling mood of the moment. You have nothing to say about it. You are merely the victim (or the beneficiary, as the case may be) of a purely automatic law. You can no more guard your thoughts to be sweet and constructive while pou feel cross and hateful than you can at will lift yourself into heaven by your own bootstraps. Why not understand this law and profit by its positive use? Think no critical thoughts, no doubt thoughts, no destructive thoughts. Make your dominant emotion “LOVE.” Choose to love until it dominates your entire thought world.
I AFFIRM: I am seeing to it today that my mental processes are motivated by love, confidence and adventurous daring.
Study: Math. 12:34, 35 I Peter 3:10

Key Thought: Thinking and speaking constructively dissolves false conditions and creates ideal ones. At certain intervals we catch dear glimpses of our goaL We know what we would like to be and how we would like to do, yet a few hours later, up from the subjective levels comes surg ing some emotional hang-over of our past,— anger, irritability-, dislike, prejudice or discour agement and we have failed. Someone has suggested that saving our souls is really re-educating our subconscious levels.— weeding out old appetites, dissolving ugly old race emotions and substituting for them a new and redeemed nature. To “think no thought we would not wish to see objectified’’ is a challenge and magic-working formula. True we often find ideas leaping unbidden into consciousness from the memory levels of the past and often they are unwelcome visitors: but we always have the power to show them the door and to in-state in their stead the welcome visitor who declares the truth. Think carefully for a moment upon this tre mendous promise, “Whoso offereth praise glori- fieth m e; and to him that ordered his conversation aright, will I show the salvation of God.” Praise your body; make love to your business; remember that even your car is sensitive to vour love and constructive thought. Thinking loving and beautiful thoughts of your co-workers fuses them with encouragement and approval.

I AFFIRM: I speak the perfect and constructive word toward every person and situation in my environment.
Study: I Cor. 8:6

Key Thought: “By thy words shalt thou be justified and by thy words shalt thou be condemned." Words idly spoken seem harmless enough. How can the mere spoken word, even though it voices a negative idea, have an influence over conditions? Dynamite in whatever form we may handle it is always explosive and we must understand that behind the words which we use is the mental process which formulates and pro jects the power-world behind them. It is in this mental process that the dynamite lies; not in the mere objective word. Words, it is true, are but symbols of ideas, but the act of the mind in speaking them gives them a powerful kind of reality; particularly is this true if we put much 'feeling behind the word which we speak or the thought which we think. Let us avoid talking about the darker or negative side of life. Let us refuse to voice any statement which recognizes another person’s weaknesses. If someone else starts declaring a negative or critical statement about another indi vidual, immediately correct the statement in your own mind by saying silently: “This may be the fact about this individual but it is not the truth of his divine self. I will speak toward him mentally the truth of his divine being.” Why not speak of the things we would wish to have made real? Ideal conditions, only the best about people, good fortune for ourselves, happiness and harmony for others?

AFFIRM: “Death and Life are in the power of the tongue and they that love it eat the fruit thereof
