Christ IN You!

 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.  Colossians 2:9-10

   The result of your realization that your Self includes the Infinite as well as yourself is that all the resources of the Infinite are at your disposal. You can draw on them without limitation, except for the required self-limitation you impose, based on the Law of Kindness. So long as kindness leads you to respect others, you are free and all limitations are removed.

   You are also no longer ignorant, for since your self includes the Infinite, you can draw from there all needed knowledge. In addition, you will feel its guidance, and eventually your mentality will learn to put this also into the form of words. By combining Thought and experience, theory and practice, you will by degrees come more and more into the knowledge of the Law of your own Being.

   You will find that there is no place in it for fear, because it is the Law of Perfect Liberty. Once you know what your Whole Self really is, you will walk erect as a free woman or man who radiates Light and Life all around you. Your very presence will carry a living influence because you realize yourself to be an Affirmative Whole, and not a mere negative disintegration of parts.

   One day you will know that your Whole Self includes the Greater Person which is behind of and causes the phenomenal Person, and this Greater Person is the true human principle within you. This Greater Person in you is universal in its sympathies, but not less individually yourself.

   Thus, the Greater Person in you, being both universal and individual, can be trusted as a sure guide. It is that “Thinker” which is behind your conscious mind, and which, if you accept it as your center, and realize that it is not a separate entity but yourself, will handle your every situation with aplomb.
