My
mind is a center of Divine operation. The
Divine operation is always for expansion and fuller
expression, and this means the production of something
beyond what has gone before, something entirely new, not
included in past experience, through proceeding out of
it by an orderly sequence of growth. Therefore, since
the Divine cannot change its inherent nature, it must
operate in the same manner in me; consequently in my own
special world, of which I am the center, it will move
forward to produce new conditions, always in advance of
any that have gone before.
Thomas Troward, "The
Doré Lectures" by
Psalm
17
Lord,
listen to my prayer;
hear me in my hour of need.
I am overwhelmed by my thoughts.
Guide my feet on your path;
don't let me stop or falter.
Teach me how powerful your love is
and how insubstantial my fears.
Like the pupil of the eye protect me;
hide me in the shadow of your wings.
Cover me with your mercy;
rock me to sleep in the dark.
And let me, when I awaken,
see nothing but the light of your face.
From "A Book of
Psalms", selected & Adapted from the Hebrew
by Stephen Mitchell
