"A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it is
not open." Frank Zappa
Peace, the Miracle Worker - Emmet Fox
REGENERATION MEANS BUILDING A NEW MENTALITY;
that is, creating a new soul in place of your present one. It does not mean
merely improving your present self - it means producing (through the power of
God, of course), a new self. If you do this, everything else in your life will
rapidly change for the better. Your health will improve. Your appearance will
improve because, as you know, the body is but the reflection of the soul. The
world around you will be changed because you will be seeing it through a new and
better personality. Other people will become
much more attractive and friendly to you, and this will be because your soul
will be filled with peace, and therefore you will radiate peace, and other
people will get it intuitively. Everybody likes peace and harmony and they are
attracted to any source from which it comes.
If your heart really is filled with peace
"nothing shall by any means hurt you." But, of course, your heart must be filled
with peace and to bring this about you must desire it more than anything else.
This will mean forgiving everyone and harboring good will toward all. Naturally
you cannot radiate peace if you do not first possess it within yourself. You
cannot radiate anything from the outside. To radiate any quality, that quality
must be within yourself. Hypocrites sometimes try to radiate qualities which
they do not possess or feel, but they always fail to get results in a very short
time.
True peace of mind is the short cut to regeneration which requires a fundamental
change in ourselves. The Master said, Peace I leave with you; my peace I give
unto you.
Thinking along with Nona Brooks (Divine Science)
"Every thought that we think which is dependent on
that which is not of God is a transgression of the law of God. The law of God is
love; every thought or deed that is unloving is sin, and is followed by
suffering. Healing means blotting out sin. There are many sins; it is a sin to
doubt, to fear, to criticize. The unkind thought that we think; the unkind word
that we speak of another; any darkness in our attitude; doubt, or fear - is a
falling short, a missing of the mark. As we free ourselves from this kind of
thing, we are healed."
My Destiny ~ Joseph Murphy
I know that I mold, fashion and create my own destiny.
My faith in God is my destiny; this means an abiding faith in all things good. I
live in the joyous expectancy of the best; only the best comes to me. From this
moment forward, I express life, love, and truth. I am radiantly happy and
prosperous in all ways. Thank you Father.
Opportunities multiply as they are seized Sun
Tzu c. 544 - 496 BC
I Have A Soul of Abundance ~ Roy Graves
The channels of my life are wide open to the flow of
good. My supply is continuous and unending. I am never closed to it. I welcome
and enjoy it - enough to spend, to spare and to share. The flow of money into
and through my life cleanses and heals me of any idea the world may have of
difficulty in finances. I am not bullied by world opinions, nor do I grab at
money or size my accounts. I release the choking grasp of fear, and an easy flow
resumes. Prosperity circulates through my life freely. Opulence come to me from
unanticipated sources in unexpected amounts. As "the Lord takes delight in the
prosperity of his servants," I am a joy in the law.
"You and Your Future" by Ernest Holmes, Jan. 1968.
Life has set the stamp of Individuality on your soul.
You are different from any other person who ever lived. You are individualized
center in the Consciousness of God. You are a personal activity in the action of
God. You are you; you are eternal, and you are free. There is a Presence at the
center of your being that knows neither lack, limitation, nor fear. There is a
Power forever responding to your mental attitudes. You are either attracting or
repelling according to your mental attitudes. You are identifying yourself
either with abundance or with lack, with love and
friendship or with indifference. You cannot keep from
attracting into your experience that which corresponds to the sum total of your
thoughts.
This Law of Mind works automatically, like the law of
attraction and repulsion. It is also like the law of reflection. Just as a
reflection in a
mirror corresponds to the image held before the
mirror, so the Law of Mind reflects in your experience the forms of your own
acceptance.
How careful, then, you should be to guard your
thoughts. Not only to keep them free from doubt and fear by accepting the good,
but also to repel every thought which denies that good. Realize that all action
starts in, and is a result of, consciousness; therefore prepare your mind to
receive the best that life has to offer. It is not always easy to control your
thoughts. It is not easy in the midst of pain to think health, in the midst of
poverty to think abundance, in the midst of unhappiness to think joy. But if you
can do this you will meet with success.
Stop blaming anyone or anything - persons,
circumstances, or situations - for what may be happening to you. Your
accumulated thought - patterns are automatically resowing their own seeds in the
creative medium of your mind. They will keep on doing this until you change
them. Your hope lies in the fact that you can change these patterns. This is not
a process of merely making affirmations or holding thoughts. It is a process of
the gradual reeducation of�your whole mental reactions to life. You have been
told that all things are possible to him who believes. Accept this as a
principle of your being.

Awaken The Christ - Emmet Fox
Jesus and His disciples had gone into a boat to cross
a lake. As so often happens on lakes and small bodies of water, a storm came up
suddenly. His disciples were filled with fear and apprehension because the wind
was so great that the boat was rapidly filling with water -- but Jesus was
asleep. The disciples first thought was to awaken the Master (the Christ) for
they felt that here was a situation that had gotten beyond them. He arose and
said unto the sea, "Peace, be still," and the storm subsided. Then He turned to
His disciples and asked them, "Where is your faith that you are so fearful?" Now
the Christ is asleep in each one of us until we become aware that God is not to
be found afar off but dwells within us. When the storms
(the problems) of life assail you, and it appears that your ship is about to go
under, then it is high time that you awaken the Christ within you. Recall to
mind that God in you is able to cope with any difficulty, to bring peace and
harmony in any situation. Then will the Christ whisper to you, "Peace, be still.
Let your fearful trembling cease."

Tom USA writes: I am truly inspired with the quotes by Dr. Fox, posted daily on Facebook. Thank you for your kindness in sharing these.
From: Angel in Canada. It was only last year that I learned about the teachings of Emmet Fox, and I want to share how much his writings are feeding my soul. I have not been well for the past few years. I have hope and faith my life and my health will turn around. I recently finished "Make Your Life Worth While." I found it at a re-sale store. It just spoke to me. Thank you so much for your reply.
From: Antonio in Italy. I am writing to you with great joy to tell you that God has accepted our prayer. I have found peace and hope, I am moving and everything is going well.
From: John,. Hello I had written you many years
ago. In the last few months I have become aware through spiritual realizations
of some of the truths in Leviticus 18:22. His ( Emmet Fox) ideas are all through
it. Because they are true! I believe Dr. Fox would be delighted that all of this
was due to his original works. He always said you can be taught strange things
not taught in schools. Original insights on scripture and truth. I hope you find
this enlightening.
The Resurrection Of My Desire - A Treatment By
Joseph Murphy
The Light of God shines through me and from me into
everything about me. The emanating of God's Love flows from me; It is a healing
radiance unto everyone who comes into my presence. I now assume the feeling of
being what I want to be. I know that the way to resurrect my desire is to remain
faithful to my ideal, knowing that an Almighty Power is working in my behalf. I
live in this mood of faith and confidence; I give thanks that is done; for it is
established in God, and all is well.
"Easter when properly understood, symbolizes the
supreme spiritual experience, which is the regeneration of mankind. We were not
meant to be forever in limitation, fear, and misunderstanding. The design of
Providence is that we should awaken to our true spiritual nature, cast off the
works of darkness, and go forth clad in the shining armor of light. That is the
true Easter." Emmet Fox
