November 2024 Daily Guides by Rev. Dr. Jim Lockard
The Daily Guides have always been a beloved section of this publication. Each month, new spiritual guidance is imparted by members of the Centers for Spiritual Living communities. It’s lifelong insight you can’t find anywhere but Guide for Spiritual Living: Science of Mind magazine.
Each day brings two quotes from various wisdom teachers, a personal guide from the author’s life and a powerful affirmation. This daily inspiration has impacted generations of readers.
In case you don’t subscribe, here’s an example for you to enjoy:
Abundance 101
Affirmation: I know I am one with the richness of Spirit at all times. I accept this as the essential relationship of my life and receive its blessings.
The creation of the universe contained within it everything necessary at that instant and the potential for everything that would be necessary for its continued existence and evolution. Nothing was missing.
As expressions of that universe, you and I are made of the same stuff – that which was present at the instant of creation, that which has come from potential into form during the life of the universe thus far. We also have access to the unlimited potential that has not yet been actualized. Our future is bound in the future of the universe.
This rich birthright is available to everyone, is part of everyone. But we must discover it for ourselves. We must find our way, discovering ourselves and our divine natures as we go. Some, it seems, are born into situations where this discovery is highly unlikely, while others, such as you, dear reader, have come into possession of the great truth of self-discovery. Our teaching, Science of Mind, is one source of this truth, built from the wisdom of the ages and expanded through a modern understanding of psychology.
Our great gift is that we have this teaching available. To bring these principles to life, we must keep studying the teaching and practicing its principles in own own lives.
Quotes
You are not separate from the whole. You are one with the sun, the earth, the air. You don’t have a life. You are life.
— Eckhart Tolle
We say we are one with God and one in God. This is a mistake; we are one of whatever the nature of God is. Whatever it is, it is one.
— Ernest Holmes, “The Philosophy of Ernest Holmes,” page 85
