If your thought can produce one thing, it can produce all things. Nothing can stop you from thinking. You can think what you please, and if to think is to form, you can form whatever you please. Since it is true that to think is to form, then you must accept that your limitations and expansions come from your Thought alone.
You believe erroneously that conditions outside yourself have power over you, and so you think power into them. In essence, you are creating and worshiping idols of your own creation.
A careful study of philosophy and religion, as a whole, will lead you to the truth that “in the beginning” there was no other Creative Power than Spirit, and the only mode of activity that you can attribute to Spirit is Thought.
Thus, Thought is at the root of all things. If it was true “in the beginning,” it must still be true. Since all things originate in Thought, all things must be modes of Thought.
Accordingly, it is not possible that Spirit could or would ever relinquish Its creation to some power which is not Itself—i.e., Its Thought Power. Consequently, all the forms and circumstances that surround you are manifestations of the creative power of Thought.
You might argue that this is God’s Thought and not your Thought. But this goes against the self-evident axiomatic truth that “in the beginning” nothing could have had an origin other than Thought. It is also true that nothing has any origin except in the Divine Mind, and you are a mode of Divine Thought. You are self-conscious, therefore you are the Divine Thought evolved into individual consciousness. When you are sufficiently enlightened, you will realize that this is your origin.
