In the multitude of supportive acts we perform for ourselves everyday, we never expect a thank you or some acknowledgement. With spiritual vision, we care for others in the same way--spontaneously and without expecting a return.

With a mind full of thoughts than run like a stampede of horses, how is it possible to know happiness? When the restless mind is brought to a still point through concentration on God, the stampeding horses stop to drink from the waters of the soul's joy.

The key to freedom, security, and happiness is forged from the practice of letting go of self-will. Without that key, much of our energy is spent trying to get what we want, or avoid what we don't want. Imagine being free of all that. You are the locksmith.

Faith springs forth from the ground of intuitive knowing. Though it may not be verified by mind and senses, we can know what is true and can live by it. As we do, not only does our faith grow stronger, but we do also.
