MEDITATIONS for Self-Help

The Quick Answer

My answer comes quickly and surely back to me from On High.

My answer will not fail me, for the Law of the Universe is the Power through which it comes.

I shall not doubt nor fear, for the answer is swift and certain.

My answer comes.

A Song of Joy

There is a Song upon my lips today; it sings of the glad heart and the happy ways of Life.

I will listen to my song, for it carols to me the glad tidings of Great Joy, of Love and Life.

It tells me of the Wondrous Journey of the Soul and the Boundless Life in which my life is hid.

I am filled with joy.

MEDITATIONS

By Ernest Holmes

(The following meditations is printed just as it was given in class and group work.)

My Ideal Merges into the Real

We now let go of everything and enter into the contemplation of peace and good and truth and beauty.  We are conscious that God is All there is, there is nothing else.  We are certain that the Spirit of Reality is our spirit, flows into our spirit and through our spirit.  And we are conscious that Love does guide and direct, lead, maintain and sustain.  We know that each one of us is a center of this Divine Life, in this Perfect Peace, this Complete Happiness, and this Absolute wholeness; and we know that this Perfection - which is the center of our very being - is projected into every atom of our being.

We know that the Law of this Being is perfect and there is no obstruction to Its operation.  We know that the Principle within us guides us, not only into the way of truth, but in the way and the performance of that knowledge.  WHATEVER IS FOR OUR BENEFIT IS ALREADY PROVIDED.  It is all one thing.  It is all One Presence, operating through One fundamental Law, therefore, everything necessary to our well-being (whether we think of it as spiritual, mental or physical), everything necessary to remove any belief in obstruction and the inflow and out-push of that Spirit, is brought into our experience.  All good, all substance, all supply, all activity, all opportunity for self-expression is ours now!

MEDITATIONS for Self-Help

Ernest Holmes

Whose Right It Is to Come

He has come Whose right it is.

He has made His home within me, and will nevermore depart from me.

I shall walk no more alone, for One walks with me

Who knows the path of Life, and Whose feet will never falter nor fail.

My Inner Light shines through the mist of human beliefs

And frees me from the bondage of fear and limitation.

I shall walk with You, my Friend, and shall learn of You the ways of Life and Freedom.

We shall travel together from this day, and none can part us,

For we are united in the perfect bonds of an everlasting unity.

I walk with Thee.

I Control My Mental Household

I conquer my mental household and cast out all fear and doubt.

Let my Word cast out all sense of fear and doubt

and let my thoughts be lifted unto Him Who lives Within.

My Word has dissolved all fear within me, and has cast out all doubt.

My Word shall guard my thought and make me receive only that which is Good and Perfect.

I control my life.
