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.

Fear and desire forbid us from entering the holy present. When we are caught up in how we think it should be rather than how it is, we lose the opportunity for divine communion in that moment and the opening to whatever miracle is revealing itself.

When you come to prayer with a troubled mind or a disease in the body, pray until you feel the peace or the joy of the divine presence. In that experience is the assurance that all needs are met, all healing is accomplished, and everything is in divine order. When you experience the truth of this, you have prayed all the way though the condition and are restored to wholeness.

We cannot have the new life, the new vision that we seek, without letting go of the past. With patience, respect the way things are and live in the soul's unconditional joy in the present moment, even in the midst of loss.
