But where is this wonderful Power to be contacted? The answer is simple – this Power is to be found within your own consciousness, the last place that most people would look for it. Within your own mentality there lies a source of energy stronger than electricity, more potent than high explosive; unlimited and inexhaustible. You only need to make conscious contact with it to set it working in your affairs. This Indwelling Power, the Inner Light, is spoken of in the Bible as a child. The conscious discovery by you that you have this Power within you, and your determination to make use of it, is the birth of the child.
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6).
This is a marvelous description of what happens when the spiritual idea, the Child, is born to the soul. Walking in darkness, moral or physical, dwelling in the land of the shadow of death – the death of joy, or hope, or even self-respect – describes well the condition of many people before this light shines into their weary, heartbroken lives; and the Prophet rises into a paean of exultant joy as he contemplates the deliverance.
The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: They that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined (Isaiah 9:2).
All of God’s power is available to each one of us every minute of every day. God’s power within us is an ever present help in trouble and in joy. It is more powerful than any force and is capable of overcoming any obstacle. Ton access this power an light, we must believe in it and accept its reality. Then must must put the principles of love to work in our lives.
For this power will not be available to those who would abuse it. Unless we eliminate the self and give God control of our thoughts, words and deeds, this power will be kept from us. So, why does bad things happen to those who believe? It is because it must happen in order for us to arrive at our proper place. It is also to show us the power within by forcing us to access it and believe in it.
That is when the light truly begins to shine and our spirits soar. That is when the inner child awakens to all the mystery and majesty of God’s power and love. Then we see our gardens, feel God’s power and live in the Eden god gave us.
Being the child,
