The Herald of the Golden Age, Vol. 7: February, 1902 (Classic Reprint) by Sidney H. Beard Pdf
Excerpt from The Herald of the Golden Age, Vol. 7: February, 1902 We need not condemn ourselves too harshly because we have failed, as yet, to attain our individual ideals. We know only too well how we have yearned and striven after high achievement, and how in the silence we have mourned defeat. And God knows it too! And being conscious that we want to be other than we are, we feel, intuitively, that in the eyes of the Omniscient Father there is no look of condemnation; the inner voice speaks to us of changeless Faith, Hope, and Love - ln us, and for us, and toward us. And this sustains our courage and saves us from giving up in despair. Nor may we condemn others. For we know not the weight of the physical burden which they have inherited, nor the force of adverse circumstance against which they have to fight. Freely we have received; and freely must we give to them, the very same Faith and Hope and Love which have been our own salvation hitherto. In such ministry as this there is a magic power that the world does not yet apprehend, but which men will some day understand. 'it will transform the weak and make them strong, it will refresh as with gentle rain the barren heart and cause it to bring forth the fruits of the Spirit and the flowers of paradise. No electric battery has such potency as an union of spiritual men and women who are banded together to uplift and encourage some weak brother or sister, by their faith, sympathy, and hopeful confidence. The vibrations created by such a battery of human hearts will awaken responsive faith and renewed effort, and make possible that resolute and hopeful mental attitude which precedes victory and upon which victory depends. By divine optimism such as this, are great ideals conceived, and by the same magic alchemy they can be trans muted into actual realities and accomplished facts. The psychic laws of mental suggestion can thus be utilized for the transformation of mankind - telepathy affording the medium of communication, and faith supplying the requisite motive power. Let us by all means have an union of all who love, on behalf of all who suffer. But let us also have an union of all who believe in the great possibilities that lie involved in human nature and in the glorious future that awaits us and the world in which we live.
