Around the Year with Emmet Fox - 23 October 2011
THE SUNSHINE OF GOD'S LOVE
Behind every problem or difficulty lies the Truth of Being. This means that in spite of the appearance, you must believe that divine Mind is already healing the situation. Jesus said that when you pray, believe that you have received. Often we are so close to a problem that, spiritually speaking, we accept the cloudy day as a permanent state of climate, forgetting that the sunshine of divine Love and Power has never ceased to shine, although obscured for the moment.
In prayer we remind ourselves again that, no matter how bleak or overcast the picture may be, we believe that in divine Mind there is nothing but good and therefore only good can express itself in these circumstances. The important thing is to raise your consciousness above the elevel where the difficulty seems to be, and put God there instead.
Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father (Matthew 13:43)
