It Is Right To Submit To A

When A Sunbeam Falls On A Transparent Substance, The Substance Itself Becomes Brilliant, And Radiates Light From Itself. So Too Spirit Bearing Souls, Illumined By Him, Finally Become Spiritual Themselves, And Their Grace Is Sent Forth To Others. From This Comes Knowledge Of The Future, Understanding Of Mysteries, Apprehension Of Hidden Things, Distribution Of Wonderful Gifts, Heavenly Citizenship, A Place In The Choir Of Angels, Endless Joy In The Presence Of God, Becoming Like God, And, The Highest Of All Desires, Becoming God.

As God Illumines All People Equally With The Light Of The Sun, So Do Those Who Desire To Imitate God Let Shine An Equal Ray Of Love On All People. For Wherever Love Disappears, Hatred Immediately Appears In Its Place. And If God Is Love, Then Hatred Is The Devil. Therefore As One Who Has Love Has God Within Himself, So He Who Has Hatred Within Himself Nurtures The Devil Within Himself.

Extirpate Two Thoughts Within Thyself: Do Not Consider Thyself Worthy Of Anything Great, And Do Not Think That Any Other Man Is Much Lower Than Thou In Worthiness. Learn Humble Mindedness Beforehand, Which The Lord Commanded In Word And Showed Forth In Deed. Hence, Do Not Expect Obedience From Others, But Be Ready For Obedience Thyself.

The Bread In Your Cupboard Belongs To The Hungry; The Coat Unused In Your Closet Belongs To The One Who Needs It; The Shoes Rotting In Your Closet Belong To The One Who Has No Shoes; The Money Which You Hoard Up Belongs To The Poor.
