Practice makes perfect. This familiar proverb embodies one of the great laws of human nature and—being a law—it is never under any circumstances broken.
There is simply no achievement without practice and the more practice, provided it is done intelligently, the greater will the proficiency be and the sooner will it be attained. It is true in every conceivable branch of human endeavor. Practice is the price of proficiency.
In metaphysics the effects of this law are particularly striking. Thought control is entirely a matter of intelligent practice. And true religion may well be summed up as the Practice of the Presence of God.
…be ye doers of the word, and no hearers only…(James 1:22).
Each time we recognize God’s power in our lives, we practice the presence of God. When we control out thoughts and direct them to God’s purpose for us, we practice the presence of God. Each time we practice our faith and put it to work in the world, we get better at manifesting God’s will in out lives. When we have practiced these things until they are our true nature, we will be in the presence of God at all times. We will not be perfect the first time, but with practice, we will achieve peace and God’s blessings for the best good in our lives.
Still practicing,
