I HAVE COMPANIONSHIP
I am a companion of them that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts.
Psalm 119:63
We all long for intimate relationships; we wish to feel that we are one with people. This yearning, which every normal person has, emanates from an unconscious but spiritual perception that we all are one in Life itself. Where there is no sense of rejection there will be no loneliness.
I no longer reject myself. Knowing that I am one with all people in the Spirit, I receive everyone as a friend. I establish a close and intimate relationship with everyone I meet – something goes out from me and becomes unified with them. I include all and exclude none. Higher than all differences, is that union of the soul with its Source; beyond all differentiation, the Infinite Person is enshrined in the sanctuary of my own consciousness. One with all people, I enjoy this Divine companionship. I embrace the Infinite in everyone and in turn am embraced by It.
I know that my presence upholds and blesses everyone whom I contact, and that a healing power goes forth from me. I know that today I shall be able to help everyone whom I meet. There is a song at the center of my being which everyone hears, a joy which everyone feels, a strength which is imparted to all. I place upon everyone I meet the seamless robe of Christ, the garment of truth which is the unity of God and man. All people are my friends.
