In the spiritual teaching we are told not to dwell upon our troubles, but instead, to realize the Presence of God where the trouble seems to be. Critics have suggested that this policy is “running away from life.” Is it?
Suppose you found yourself in a house that was on fire; what would you do? You would leave the burning building as rapidly as possible. Would this be running away from life? Would it not rather be seeking life?
Sickness, sin, fear, and limitation – these things are not life – they are partial death; and they are to be overcome by turning toward life, which is divine harmony.
To turn away from evil and realize God instead is to liberate yourself, to help the world, and to glorify God.
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth … (Isaiah 45:22).
That which we focus upon, becomes our reality. Are we focusing on the problems or the solutions? Negativity is the problem. God’s presence is the solution. Focus on God and solve the problem; focus on the problem and…
Looking to the presence of God from whom all our help comes,
