"A balance on the side of good"

MARGERY CHUTER

"Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." In these words of Christ Jesus, as recorded in Luke's Gospel, we may hear the command to acknowledge with gratitude the perfection of divine Mind, and all that God does for man; the purity and grace of true being, the natural beauty of Truth. These things are the raiment of our lives, God-given and God-sustained. In the measure that we toil and spin not for selfish gain, but relying on God, we are clad in His raiment of truth and love, and the beauty of His work appears.

It is the joy of divine Love which beautifies and fructifies human existence as the ideas of Truth appear in the loveliness of thought dependent on Mind, cultivated beyond the crudities of the mortal senses; for so Love outlines our being in reality.
