LOVE-impelled
By
Julio C. Rivas, CS
“O Lord my God,
thou art very great … the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.”
Limitless
MIND-INTELLIGENCE expresses man and the universe. We are the fruitage of the fecundity of
SPIRIT-life, MIND-health, and LOVE-power.
Inexhaustible and teeming MIND is giving our lives immeasurable and
exuberant riches of mind, heart and experience.
“For the earth
bringeth forth fruit for herself: first the stalk, then the head, then the full
corn in the head.”
It is the fecundity
of MIND-LOVE that impels us to be healthy, courageous, wise, innovative and
fruitful.”
“Every good gift
and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of
lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”
Ever-giving SPIRIT
pours into our being indestructible health, talents and means. SPIRIT-substance re-engineers us each day so
that we can express more of our illimitable, empyrean abilities. Our outstanding, exponential essence is from
SOUL, “it cometh down” to us from “the Father of lights.”
“I tell you the
truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these,
because I am going to the Father” (New International Version).
The fact is that
superlative PRINCIPLE-LOVE expresses in us infinite abilities, brilliance,
grace and effectiveness. Everyone is
spiritually blessed and when thought is coalescing with TRUTH we are formidable
divine forces for accomplishing admirable good.
We are the oeuvre of SOUL, the dynamic outcome of the Self-revealing EGO.
“…by their
fruits ye shall know them.”
SPIRIT-TRUTH
instigates bounty, peace, health, excellence and beauty in us and
everywhere. Our conscious communion with
TRUTH excises material hindrances. Take
for example the bleeding woman who Jesus healed. The religious teachings of his day turned her
into a social outcast, and condemned her.
Jesus’ sense of TRUTH-LOVE accepted her.
In turn, by accepting the altering power of Christly love/wisdom she was
healed.
“For of him, and
through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory forever.”
PRINCIPLE-MIND manifests
all that is real. Decaying and aging
matter, sinful personality and material genetics are overridden by the
preeminence of our spiritual selfhood. We are of SPIRIT, through SPIRIT, and to
SPIRIT. Our SPIRIT-selfhood is endowed
with all that SPIRIT has, including beauty, majesty, eternality, wholeness and
plenty. This understanding changes our
perceptions and behavior, and it ejects pain, illness, blight, decay and lack.
“Show your own
self in all respects to be a pattern and a model of good deeds and works,
teaching what is unadulterated, showing gravity (having the strictest regard
for truth and purity of motive), with dignity and seriousness.”
LOVE-TRUTH
impels us live with humility, generosity of spirit, patience, fidelity, love
and joy. These mental tones emanate from
SOUL’s universal, spiritual symphony. They
excise egotism and pride, and keep us from taking our human personality too
seriously. By being concordant with
SOUL-MIND we have access to infinite goodness, talents and grace.
Thank you Julio dear, for another excellent Blog posting. Your writing and observations are always beautifully expressed and also highly focused. There is so much here that I could acknowledge, but the one I would like to mention is this one from above: "Take for example the bleeding woman who Jesus healed. The religious teachings of his day turned her into a social outcast, and condemned her. Jesus’ sense of TRUTH-LOVE accepted her. In turn, by accepting the altering power of Christly love/wisdom she was healed." This reminds us of Mrs. Eddy statement,“Christian Science acts as an alternative, neutralizing error with Truth. It changes the secretions, expels humors, dissolves tumors, relaxes rigid muscles, restores carious bones to soundness. The effect of this Science is to stir the human mind to a change of base, on which it may yield to the harmony of the divine Mind.” S&H pg. 162. Her healing was a the result of a reciprocal response. I'm also reminded of an observation another CS healer shared with me years ago, he said that most all CS healings whittle down to the successful recognition and handling of a religious misconception. You reveal this here, how the religious misconceptions of her day bound her, and Jesus' reversal of that misconception resulted in her freedom, her healing. Once again your discernment and beautiful writing inspire us, thank you as always..........Leah
