Power Through Constructive Thinking (Plus)

by Emmet Fox

There is no waste of time, for God is the only Doer. God works through me; so I am always working rightly, and there is no danger of my praying wrongly. I think the right thing, in the right way, at the right time. My work is always well done, for my work is God’s work. The Holy Spirit is continually inspiring me.

If you bless any situation, it has no power to hurt you, and even if it is troublesome for a time it will

Nothing ever takes place but the Self-expressing of Divine Love.

All this is true now. This is the actual case, the actual state of affairs. I do not have to try to bring this about, but I observe it already in being now. Divine Love is the actual nature of Being. There is only Divine Love, and I know this. I perfectly understand what Divine Love is. I have conscious realization of Divine Love. The Love of God burns in me for all humanity. I am a lamp of God, radiating Divine Love to all whom I meet, to all whom I think of. I forgive everything that can possibly need forgiveness—positively everything.

Divine Love fills my heart, and all is well. I now radiate Love to the whole universe, excluding no one. I experience Divine Love. I demonst...

See God on both sides of the table. Claim that God is working through both of you, through yourself and through the person with whom you are dealing.

Never allow yourself to be strained or tense or overeager. God never hurries; He works without effort. In dealing with fellow man put God on both sides of the table, and the outcome will be true success for both parties.

IF I always look for the best in each person, situation, and thing. If I resolutely turn my back on the past, good or bad, and live only in the present and future. If I forgive everybody without exception, no matter what he may have done; and if I then forgive MYSELF whole-heartedly.

If

I specifically claim spiritual understanding for myself every day.
