When we are steadfast in our devotion to God and our daily spiritual practice, we find shelter from the turbulence of the world. Intermittent practice leaves us vulnerable to the changing currents of nature within and around us.

Time is an endless, rushing stream. Some people spend their energy trying to beat it or control it; others resign themselves to being beaten by it. But some use the raft of Superconscious meditation to cross over the river of time to the shore of eternity.

The law of karma is perfect and exact. Our selfishness always returns to us to wound us. Our violence always returns to us to harm us. In the same way, our selflessness, our acts of love, return to bless us. And our kindness always comes back to us.

When we are patient, we are capable of bearing delay and waiting for the right moment and the path of right action to appear. Patience is pregnant with faithful possibility.

Patience is a state of readiness in which we make ourselves available for grace to move through us. It is the willingness to cultivate even-mindedness and peace, regardless of what is going on or what others are doing. It requires the capacity to see clearly and accept what is without arguing with reality.

In this moment, take whatever it is that troubles you and bring it into the light of divine order. Let it be infused completely with Truth, the light of reality. This light breaks through all conditions and reveals their insubstantial nature as subject to change.

In prayer we seek Truth, by placing our attention on that which is real in the absolute sense and letting that which is changeable fade away. If it is health that you seek, or love, or prosperity, let it go as a condition you are searching for, and put your attention only on the fullness of the divine presence within you. Let it provide.
