and inspirational reading. When you 

become too extroverted, so physically 

or emotionally involved with activities 

and mundane circumstances that your 

inner peace is disturbed or your aware-

ness of your relationship with God is 

blurred, withdraw for a while until you 

are soul-centered and God-aware. 

Envision the possibilities avail-

able to you. Be receptive to learning 

about the world in which you live. Be 

curious. Learn the principles by which 

its processes operate. Discover what 

you can do to live enjoyably and freely 

while helping others to be spiritually 

awake and freely functional. Be recep-

tive to new ideas and to new, useful 

ways of doing things.

Just as the enlightened awareness 

of God-attuned souls blends with 

the collective consciousness of the 

planet's inhabitants and illumines it, 

the blurred awareness of unenlight-

ened souls blends with the collective 

consciousness and clouds it. Impulses 

of God's grace which pervade planetary 

consciousness, and the clarified states 

of mind and awareness of spiritually 

aware human beings, nurture the well 

being of everyone and contribute to 

the orderly actions of nature. Your 

fully matured and actualized pros-

perity consciousness is of great value 

to you, others, and the universe.

Your life did not begin when you 

were physically born and will not end 

when the body dies. In truth, you were 

never born and you will never die. As a 

unit of God's being you were individu-

alized, not created. At some point in 

time, you will awaken completely from 

that illusional sense of Self-identity. 

Until then, you have much to learn, 

much good work to do, and much 

helpful service to render. You can do 

nothing for God because God is not 

other than you. All that occurs is God 

in action.
