The Golden Key
March 31, 2009 by zgardener
Study and research are well in their own time and place, but no amount of either will get you out of a concrete difficulty. Nothing but practical work in your own consciousness will do that.
Scientific prayer is the Golden Key to harmony and happiness. You need take no one’s word for it, and you should not. Simply try it for yourself, and see.
Whoever you are, wherever you may be, the Golden Key to harmony is in your hand now. This is because it is God who works, and not you, and so your particular limitations or weaknesses are of no account in the process. You are only the channel through which the divine action takes place, and your part is first to get yourself out of the way.
The actual method of working is simplicity itself. All that you have to do is this: Stop thinking about the difficulty, whatever it is, and think about God instead. This is the complete rule, and if only you will do this, the trouble, whatever it is, will presently disappear. It may be big or little, it may concern health, finance, a lawsuit, a quarrel, an accident, or anything else conceivable; but whatever it is, just stop thinking about it, and think of God instead—that is all you have to do.
The thing could not be simpler, could it? And yet it never fails to work when given a fair trial.
…With God all things are possible (Matthew 19:26).
If asked to choose the one thing that should be shared with the world, the Golden Key would be it. For it unlocks the door to the path that leads into the Eden God gave us. It also unlocks the infinite power and love of God for use in this world. In order to use this key, we must do some of the most difficult things imaginable. We must get ourselves out of the way.
This means believing in God, accepting that God’s will has dominion in out lives instead of our own and it means following God’s plan for our lives. These are not easy things for humans to do. However, it is not the most difficult. That title belongs to the requirement that we understand and accept that reality starts within and is reflected without. Once we have mastered these things, we have turned the key and entered the Garden. Then we must continue the practices above in order to live daily in our Eden.
Turning the key,
Z gardener
