“I of mine own self am nothing, it is the Spirit of the Father within
that doeth these things.” Therefore we know the answer to every problem
when the self has died in the Life of the Father. By this we increase our
faith so that nothing is impossible to us when we are one with Him.
It is this that we see in the life of Him who came that Christmas
Day, and because we are not separate from him, what is his is ours also.
Say in your heart: “I am filled with Thy Presence, direct every action
that I may become the channel for Thy perfect expression. My Father and
I are one and He is within me. He is mighty, His pure Love animates all
Creation. His Love is expressed through every action of mine for He is
forever true and everlasting.”
“I shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live,” Ezekiel 37: I4.
At this time of the year there is the desire to give. There are some
who possess much and there are those who do not possess much material
means. Yet there are countless ways of helping, blessing, serving and spreading
Love and cheer without giving a single material gift, and much of this is
more beneficial, for it is the Christ way of giving—the giving and sharing
of the inner Spiritual gift of Love and service. These gifts are permanently
helpful to all.
There is no limit to our capacity for giving spiritually, for God gives
to us abundantly according to the blessings we bestow on others.
We have often heard the words, “I like to be in her or his presence,
I feel so at peace.” “I feel rested, I feel renewed.” “There is something about
that person that is filled with the Spirit that makes the world look good
after all.”
Thus Love, Peace, encouragement, is sharing the gifts of God and
through the heart and soul God speaks and acts, He Loves and blesses.
The Spirit within, when freed through Love, is continually giving out
the blessings of God to all who come nigh.
Your particular gift may be comforting the sorrowing, encouraging the
disheartened, sharing the burden of another, giving a smile or a kiss, speaking a
prayer of abundance, doing a service whenever the opportunity arises.
This you will do for your own happiness and for the blessings of others.
Jesus did not keep great material wealth at hand to share with others,
but those whose lives he touched could not be more greatly enriched if he
had been possessed of several fortunes to share with them.
