LEAVE YOUR NETS
Though your sins be scarlet, you are white as snow. Only do not go back; do not sin again; do not go back to the belief of a sense of separation from God. Do not go back to seeking your good from outside because after you have learned that the kingdom of God is within you and that you must let it flow up from the within to the without, if you then again go seeking it without, you create a deeper sense of separation than you ever had before. Do not do it! Do not go back! Do not go back! “Go, and sin no more.” Do not go back to being hurt because somebody is not doing for you what you think he should; forgiving you, co-operating with you, or recognizing your virtues. Do not go back to that! Loose him! Forgive him and let him go! You are alone with your God. You are alone in your God-being.
There are times when you are faced with the appearance of discord, inharmony, pain, lack, or limitation: and the temptation is to make a mental effort to indulge in vigorous thought-taking, affirmations, and denials in order to achieve peace and harmony.
Now reverse that, and whenever there is an appearance of discord, relax. Make no mental effort. Remember that your good does not come to you by might or by power, but by the very gentle spirit. It does not come to you by your striving, by your efforts, by your thought-taking; it comes to you from the depths of your being, in stillness, in quietness, and in confidence.
You are not to try to achieve a healing. You are to be still and let the still small voice take over. You are to let the Spirit descend upon you.
Rest. Rest, right now, in the midst of the disease, lack, discord, or inharmony that is disturbing you. Rest. Relax.
BE!
