Divine Patterns

"There is a Divine pattern for humanity, and within this pattern there is a variation that individualizes each one of us. This is why the Bible says that we should act in accordance with the pattern shown us on the mount, a symbol of high consciousness. When we lift our thought above the confusion of the material world, we become aware of the spiritual Cause behind all things.

It is no idle statement to affirm the Perfection of God as the center of all things, manifesting in and through each and every thing in a unique way. We should spend more time meditating upon the harmony, the beauty, the peace, and the joy that exist at the center of our own being. We cannot believe that our inner wholeness was created by us or came into being through a process of evolution. Quite the reverse. All evolution is a result of the action of an imprisoned splendor that exists at the center of all things.

Today I seek the Divine pattern at the center of my own being. Affirming its reality, I permit its essence to flow through me. Claiming it as my very own, I embrace it. Believing in its beauty, I sense its harmony. Accepting its peace, I am calm. Living in its love, I am unified with life. Believing in its power, with childlike faith, I accept the authority of its action in my everyday affairs. And looking at the God in humankind, I see in everyone the pattern of God’s Perfection. I see God’s image and likeness."

And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. —I CORINTHIANS 12:6
