A POPULAR BOOK EXPRESSING THE IDEAS OF THE UNITY SCHOOL
The Foreword to this 1961 book states, "The articles in this book were written to meet the needs of many people who have written to Silent Unity for prayers. Unity teaches a way of life. It has been my endeavor in this book to give you ideas which will help you to a way of life constructive and uplifting. Your health, your happiness, and your success depend on your thinking, feeling and acting in accord with Truth principles as taught by Jesus Christ."
She states, "Healing is accomplished through this high recognition of man's divinity. When you want to help some individual, do not think of him in his physical weakness, but think of him in his spiritual strength as a son of God." (Pg. 58)
She suggests, "What is true of God is true of you as a son of God, but you have to believe it and prove it. You are a part of God Himself, and He needs to express Himself through you. Let Him! Appreciate Him as love and life. Praise Him as the good you want. Love Him as the source of all good." (Pg. 177)
She observes, "In the Bible some very definite laws governing prosperity are given. Solomon, David, Jesus, Paul, and many other illumined ones have given us spiritual laws to follow in attaining prosperity. These laws are not true just because they are in the Bible. Rather, they are in the Bible because they are true. They have lived through the ages... they have been found to provide the perfect solution to the problem of thousands." (Pg. 181)
She adds, "The Bible is full of laws governing prosperity, and practically all of them have in them this same idea: return to the Almighty; then 'thou shalt... decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee.' [Job 22:28]" (Pg. 184-185)
She suggests, "If your present belief in God is not bringing you health, happiness, and peace of mind, perhaps you have not yet grasped the true concept of God as the working power in your life. Get a closer look at God as He expressed Himself through you, through your mind and your body... and something vital stirs within you, you commence to feel this Spirit as your very life... The thrill of life and health aroused renews and restores your body." (Pg. 216-217)
This is a popular exposition of the principles of the Unity School of Christianity.
