Regeneration means building a new mentality; that is, creating a new soul in place of your present one. It does not mean merely improving your present self—it means producing (through the power of God, of course), a new self.
If you do this, everything else in your life will rapidly change for the better. Other people will become much more friendly to you. Because your soul will be filled with peace, you will radiate peace, and other people will get it intuitively. Everybody likes peace and harmony and they are attracted to any source from which it comes.
Naturally you cannot radiate peace if you do not first possess it within yourself. You cannot radiate anything from the outside. To radiate any quality, that quality must be within yourself.
True peace of mind is the short cut to regeneration. The Master said,
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you (John 14:27).
Peace is being free from doubt, fear, worry, anxiety and all the other negative responses to our environment. It does not come from eliminating all the problems and troubles in our worlds. It does come from burying our human selves and being reborn as the spiritual selves that God created us to be. It is not achieved through exerting our will, but by accepting God’s will. Peace of mind flows from a godly spirit.
Peace be with you,
Z Gardener
