NOTHING CAN GO FORTH FROM ME BUT GOODNESS, TRUTH, LOVE AND KINDNESS; THEREFORE NOTHING LESS THAN GOODNESS CAN COME BACK TO ME.
… If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
I John 4:12
Every heart responds to the warmth of love. Every mind yearns for its embrace and no life is complete without it. Love really is the fulfillment of the Law of Good. Love alone can heal the world and cause people to live together in unity and in peace. Believing that love is the great lodestone of life and that love alone fulfills the Law of Good, quietly I say to myself:
I believe that God is Love. I believe that Love is at the center of everything. Therefore I accept Love as the healing power of life. I permit Love to reach out from me to every person I meet. I trust the guidance of Love because I believe It is the Power of Good in the universe. I feel that Love is flowing through me to heal every situation I meet, to help every person I contact. Love opens the way before me and makes it perfect, straight and glad.
Love forgives everything unlike itself; It purifies everything. Love converts everything that seems commonplace into that which is wonderful. Love converts weakness into strength, fear into faith. Love is the all-conquering power of Spirit. As a child walks in confidence with its parents, so I walk in confidence with Life. As a child, through love, trusts its parents, so I put my whole trust in that Love which I feel to be everywhere present, within, around and through me – within, around and through all people.
